Believe it or not that nutritious frozen food can lose weight

Nutrition experts working in the university's Food Science Laboratory compared the two diet plans. Subjects who adopted the first diet plan ate the food they had prepared according to the "Nutrition Pyramid" guidelines. Subjects on the second diet ate packaged frozen food as the main meal every day, and arranged side dishes according to the "nutrition pyramid". Both diet plans contain 1700 calories per day and equal amounts of carbohydrates, protein and fat.

But compared with the first group (which only lost 5.1 kilograms), the second group of subjects who used the packaged frozen staple food lost more weight, reaching 7.4 kilograms, and the average body mass index was also reduced by one more unit.

Regarding this result, the researchers believe that if people eat processed frozen staple foods, the matching of nutrients in
