Canning is a method of conserving food in which the food has firstly been processed and then sealed in an airtight container. Tasty? Depends on who you ask, but healthy it is certainly not.

For examples vegetables, canned veggies are often stripped of fiber and any other nutrients and are usually loaded with sodium. If you are eating them, you are consuming a large amount of sugar, additives, sodium or flavorings that detract from the good nutrition, which make it harmful, without you even knowing about it.

If canned foods are your to-go, we would recommend you to go for frozen foods instead. They have no added sodium, and plus you can choose the portion you want to make and just keep the rest in the freezer.

We often go for canned foods as they are cheaper, shorter in preparation time and more convenient. Today you can literally find everything in cans, which may be appealing and always a good thing to store in your kitchen cabinet, but try not to make it a habit. Rather, go for the fresh and healthier version of these same foods.
