Is it true that freezing vegetables reduces their vitamin content compared with fresh vegetables?
Partly. Evidence is mixed and only partial: one review states conventional freezing can diminish biologically active compounds in foods, while a reference work says freezing generally preserves nutritional content. Neither directly compares vitamin levels of frozen versus fresh vegetables.
