A new study conducted at Penn State University, USA, led by Luke LaBorde
found that spinach stored at 39 degrees Farenheit loses its folate and
carotenoid content at a slower rate than spinach stored at 50 and 68 degrees.
This means that spinach stored in a refrigerator at 39 degrees F retains
more nutrients than spinach kept at warmer temperatures. While they found
that substantial nutrient loss occurred at all storage temperatures, cooler
temperatures retained more nutrients for a longer period of time. Ideally,
says dietician Seema Tarneja, you should buy, cook and eat up your vegetables
on the same day.
This suggestion, of course, is impossible, for most young couples. Your
next bet: store your vegetables as carefully as possible. "The trick
when storing vegetables like spinach," says Tarneja, "is to
maintain the moisture levels which, in turn, helps sustain the nutrient
content to an extent." Some ways to do this are as follows:
