Avocado is a delicious and popular fruit that’s rich in healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals.When avocados are in season or on sale, it’s tempting to stock up. However, ripe ones spoil quickly, turning brown and mushy.
To keep ripe avocados longer, we freeze them. Avocados are rich in nutrients, including healthy fats and fiber, as well as copper, potassium, folate, niacin, and vitamins B6, C, E, and K
Freezing itself does not significantly affect the calorie, fiber, or mineral content of foods, but it may reduce their levels of water-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin B6 and folate .
No research has analyzed exactly how much nutrient loss occurs from freezing avocados, but you should expect some losses — particularly in cases of extended storage times.
Yet, nutrients also decline over time in fresh produce. Thus, the nutrient losses from freezing shouldn’t be a significant concern.
