What is the nutritional level of canned food People usually think that canned food is not as nutritious as fresh or frozen food, but research shows that this is not always the case
.
In fact, canned food can retain most of the nutrients in food
.
Protein, carbohydrates and fats are not affected by the canning process, and most minerals and fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E, and K) are also retained
.
However, because canning usually requires high-temperature heating, water-soluble vitamins (such as vitamin C and B) may be destroyed
.
These vitamins are usually sensitive to heat and air, so they are also lost in normal processing, cooking, and household storage methods

Although this is extremely rare, canned food that is not processed correctly may contain a dangerous bacterium called Clostridium botulinum

Eating this contaminated food can cause botulism, and if left untreated, it can be a serious disease that may lead to paralysis and death
However, most cases of botulism come from foods that are not properly canned, prepared at home, and botulism in commercial canned foods is rare
Although canned foods are from regular manufacturers, there is still a risk of infection with certain viruses.
