Frozen veggies - healthier than fresh?
Generally speaking, frozen veggies have the same amount of nutrients as fresh veggies, and sometimes they have even MORE. This is because frozen veggies are picked at their peak. They are then immediately blanched and frozen. Thus most of their vitamins and minerals are well preserved. In contrast, fresh veggies may have already been sitting on the supermarket shelf for a while before going onto your plate. They also may not have been picked when ripe. In any case: fresh or frozen, eat veggies to your heart's content. They are filled with vitamins, minerals and nutrients. Any veggie that makes it onto your plate is a good veggie!

Learn about veggies and iron
Veggies such as broccoli, bok choy, spinach, parsley and most leafy greens are naturally high in iron. However, compared to other high-iron foods, like red meat, fish and poultry, the iron in plant foods is not absorbed as easily by the body. What can you do to increase the absorption of iron from these plant foods? 1) Vitamin C increases the absorption - so try having a fresh tomato, lemon juice, or an orange together with your high iron food 2) Avoid drinking too much coffee - caffeine can decrease the absorption of iron 3) In addition to caffeine, the tannins found in tea can also reduce iron absorption 4) If you are a vegetarian, try having iron-fortified breakfast cereals, legumes, and eggs
