Good afternoon dear friends! Zuikov Vladimir is with you. As I promised, today we begin to consider new topic about seasonal fruits and vegetables - the food we eat. A very important issue that is ignored by many when it comes to “healthy eating”. And at the end of the article I will share with you the seasonality calendar.

It is summer now - best opportunity get the maximum benefit from berries, fruits and vegetables. You need to eat more of them while everything is available. But it is also important when purchasing to take into account the quality of these same products and the season of their natural ripening. Many people ignore this question, thinking that in the summer everything is useful by default and in season.

If you go to a supermarket, fruits and vegetables are available there all year round. Come in and buy what you like. Everything is beautiful, neat, shiny - as if chosen. Retail networks They put a lot of effort into making us want to buy maximum convenience at the lowest possible price.

In supermarkets (especially large ones) there is practically nothing for a raw foodist to do. It's full of everything, but there's nothing to buy. Eating plants from the supermarket is just an illusion healthy image life.

Now we have agricultural technologies that cater more to ignorant consumer demand than to utility. That's why supermarkets and vegetable markets are stocked with such a wide range of out-of-season products. They are not only not useful, but also harmful to our health.

The fact is that such vegetables and fruits are grown in artificial conditions, stimulating them fast growth and earlier ripening of the crop with the help of aggressive nitrate fertilizers, pesticides and other nasty things. Some people think that the issue can be solved by cutting off the peel or soaking it in water. Well, yes.

About storage. Industrial vegetables and fruits in warehouses usually have their shelf life artificially increased using various chemical treatments. As a result, we have “eternal” apples and other plastic fruits on sale. By the way, read here about my experiment with apples that never rotted over the spring and summer.

Of course, no one has ever died from these apples if they ate them in small quantities. But the intestinal microflora was definitely damaged. As a result, weakness, reduced immunity, and friendly intestinal bacteria die, which means that beneficial substances are not synthesized.

And if we are talking about raw foodists, then eating plant foods of such low quality is one of the reasons why the transitional stage of a raw food diet for some lasts for YEARS, when it should be completed in 6-8 months. Guys, I’m already tired of repeating that chemicals in a raw foodist’s diet are a road to nowhere.

For example, when making a salad of cucumbers and tomatoes in the spring, you are well aware that you are eating out-of-season foods filled with chemicals. Well, if you don’t agree with me, then think about what you can grow in our climate in winter and spring or how to bring something from distant countries without the use of chemicals.

Well, in winter and spring everything is clear. What about in the summer? For example, in June, markets actively sell apricots, peaches, tomatoes, and melons. Many raw foodists use them. Are these products healthy? Many people think so.

In fact, the season for all of these fruits begins in mid-July. Yes, for those brought from more southern regions - a little earlier, but not at the beginning of June. That is, you eat greenhouse fruits, for the cultivation of which all sorts of chemicals are usually used.

For example, to grow tomatoes in such huge quantities, greenhouses alone are not enough. Be sure to use chemical growth and maturation stimulants. All this goes into your body. Will there be any benefit from such a raw food diet (or whatever your diet is)?

Reasons to avoid out-of-season fruits and vegetables in favor of seasonal ones:

1. Benefit. In season, fruits and vegetables contain greatest number useful substances and for their cultivation they use several times less fertilizers. Nature itself suggests that everything should be consumed in due time.
2. Taste. Seasonal products have a much brighter and richer taste than non-seasonal ones. For example, in winter tomatoes are like tasteless plastic, but in August they just ask to be eaten one by one.
3. Better nutrition. Seasonal fruits and vegetables saturate the body much better, unlike their “empty” out-of-season counterparts.
4. Price. In season, products are much cheaper than out of season (there are exceptions). Seasonal ones go on sale almost immediately, without long-term storage and processing. Therefore, eating what is seasonal is also beneficial for saving your budget.
5. Save the planet and support local farming. Buying natural products at markets in season, you save nature. After all, growing out-of-season products pollutes environment greenhouse gases and chemical waste from agriculture.

Friends, the key to health, youth and beauty is the consumption of mainly seasonal products. Only seasonal sun-warmed fruits, vegetables and herbs contain many vitamins, minerals and other useful substances. Off-season people are deprived of all this.

When you come to the market or a vegetable stand, your eyes widen. They sell so much stuff there almost all year round! But now you start to wonder: is it worth buying?

Guys, actually buying quality fruits and vegetables is not that difficult. To do this, first of all you need to follow the following rules:

1. Try to buy only seasonal fruits and vegetables. For example, strawberries in January are not in season and even dangerous, but in June they will provide maximum benefit and taste.
2. Try to buy plant foods that are grown in open ground under sun rays. Greenhouse food always contains less nutrients and more nitrates and pesticides.
3. Never buy too beautiful and perfect shape vegetables and fruits. Yes, supermarkets and vegetable warehouses are filled with such products, but there is nothing useful in them. Choose foods that are more homely looking but naturally grown.
4. It is advisable to buy fruits and vegetables that are fully ripe and have not been stored in warehouses for long. That is, it is better to avoid unripe or, on the contrary, rotten and spoiled ones.
5. Give preference to local vegetables and fruits rather than imported ones from overseas. Take this point into account when creating your individual diet.
6. When purchasing imported fruits, check that they are in season in the country from which the fruits come.
7. Don’t forget and don’t be lazy to make preparations for the winter. The blog has articles on how to freeze and dry fruits, vegetables and herbs yourself.

It's actually simple. Products out of season will not bring health. Chemistry and nitrates. For healthy eating The most important thing is to choose natural, seasonal fruits and vegetables. That is, those that have ripened according to the natural cycle, and that are grown without aggressive chemicals. Be it local or imported fruits.

So which vegetables and fruits should you buy depending on the season and where they are grown, and which ones should not?

The seasonal calendar of fruits and vegetables will help solve this issue. We made it in a convenient table format, by month.

Our calendar is compiled taking into account natural conformity, it takes into account precisely the factor best quality fruits and vegetables. This is its main difference from other seasonal calendars from the Internet, which take into account only the fact that a product goes on sale (for example, strawberries in April).

Friends, use the seasonal calendar for your health, make useful menu. I look forward to your comments on today's topic. And see you soon in new articles!

Have you thought about freezing certain plant products for the summer or spring? I came up with an idea just a couple of days ago about freezing citrus fruits for spring and summer. Well, for example, in the summer there are no oranges, grapefruits, or the same new exotic like pomelo. Also in spring and early summer no figs.

Let winter be ours Lately and not entirely harsh, but still it’s not best season for vitaminization and nourishment of our body. Additional care is needed, and therefore exotic ones are no longer a luxury, but, so to speak, a means of maintaining immunity and a positive mood. Those who believe that winter fruits are poor in maintenance and simply useless are mistaken. If they are stored correctly, then they contain only slightly less vitamins than in the summer gifts of nature. They also contain the most important organic acids with trace elements, and, of course, fiber.

However, let me remind you that the maximum shelf life of such fruits, berries and vegetables is up to 7-8 months. Afterwards, the vitamin content in most of them is reduced by half.

So, we can freeze it for the summer

• persimmon,
• tangerines,
• oranges,
• grapefruit,
• broccoli,
• cauliflower,
• chokeberry,

And enjoy them until the arrival of new fruits. But what kind of dishes can you get if you mix summer and winter products? A completely different taste in the form of new dishes.

How to freeze winter fruits and vegetables?

Broccoli and cauliflower It is also washed, dried or well wrapped and disassembled into branches. Then into a plastic bag in one layer and freezer. You need to place these vegetables so that when frozen they do not form into lumps and there are separate branches. You can make a frozen mixture of broccoli and cauliflower, or you can make them separately.

Grapefruit. Freezing this citrus fruit should be very delicate. First you need to prepare it. We peel the fruit from the peel and white walls, leaving only the pink or ruby-pearl pulp. Then you can put it in a bag - also in one layer, so that the grapefruit is frozen evenly, or in a disposable plastic cup.

Oranges and tangerines. Peel and divide the exotic fruits into slices and freeze in a bag; it’s good if you don’t damage the slices when peeling the fruit, so all the juices and vitamins will be better preserved.

Freeze kiwi also quite simple. Wash the fruit thoroughly, cut it into four slices, remove the skin, put it in a bag in one layer and freeze it.

Chokeberry It’s even easier to freeze – wash, dry, put in a bag and freezer – that’s it!

So, you will have a winter supply for the summer.

What to make from frozen winter exotics?

• Well, for example, you can cook a wonderful compote.
• Make a wonderful pie filling.
• Add frozen fruit to tea when brewing.
• Make fresh fruit - mix all the fruits in a blender, and then squeeze through cheesecloth or pass through a sieve.
• Frozen fruits are also great for decorating cakes, pastries, martini glasses or other, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.
• In general, you can simply freeze them with sugar, you get something like fruit ice.

Any other ideas for using it? frozen winter exotics? - Then write, we’ll try.

The height of the season for berries, vegetables and fruits is undoubtedly summer. By eating fresh vegetables, herbs, berries and fruits every day, we make up for the lack of vitamins and minerals that often arises during the winter and early spring. However, when going for your next purchase of “vitamins”, you should think about which of them mature during this time period. In this article we will talk about fruits, berries and vegetables that cannot be bought in June, and which, on the contrary, are better to take.

Why is it important to buy fruits in “their season”?

IN modern times We can buy many seasonal fruits, berries and vegetables in supermarkets throughout the year. However, such products have a clear ripening period, therefore the best taste qualities and you can get great benefit from them precisely in “your season.”

You should also not buy berries, vegetables or fruits that are not in “their season” because unscrupulous suppliers often use special chemical substances for faster ripening of the crop. Such artificially grown vegetables, fruits and berries appear on store shelves long before the start of their season and usually have a ripe and ideal appearance. However, such products do not carry any benefits, and sometimes can even cause harm to health.

So what vegetables, fruits and berries can you safely take this season?

What fruits, vegetables and berries ripen in June?

Strawberries ripen in early June. Following her. Also, the first month of summer is the season of sweet cherries. In addition, raspberries begin to ripen in June.

Seasonal fruits for June are peaches and apricots. Vegetables that ripen in June are radishes, cabbage, carrots, green onions, pepper. Spinach, lettuce, parsley, basil and other greens, rich in vitamins, also ripens in June.

What fruits, vegetables and berries should you not buy in June?

In June, you should not buy seasonal fruits, vegetables and berries, the ripening of which occurs at the end of summer - beginning of autumn. These primarily include grapes, watermelons, and melons. in August, but many of us would not refuse to try this delicious berry in June. However, before you buy watermelons before the season begins, you should think: could they ripen at the beginning of summer on their own without the use of any chemical additives?

Therefore, in June it is strongly recommended not to buy the following products: grapes, melons (watermelons, melons), eggplants, tomatoes, pears, plums. It is better to wait for the time of their natural ripening, but in the meantime, enjoy the June seasonal “vitamins”.

• When choosing fruits and vegetables, give preference to seasonal products.
• Vegetables grown in open ground are both healthier and safer than greenhouse vegetables.

What should we remember when buying groceries? About the best season to eat our favorite fruits and vegetables. Nobody likes pale, tasteless tomatoes or huge, shiny, but devoid of aroma and taste strawberries. They contain more harmful substances than vitamins and minerals. And if we want to eat healthy food, then we need to use what nature has prepared for us at different times of the year.

Spring

This is the time when everything awakens to life, and the first rays of the sun give us energy and optimism. To replenish the vitamin deficiency after winter, you need to consume the foods that this time of year offers us. First of all, these are cucumbers, parsley (greens), lettuce, radishes, green onions, sorrel, spinach, beets, rhubarb, arugula, asparagus. Fruits include apples, pears, strawberries, cherries, and cherries.

Summer

In late spring and early summer, vegetables such as beans, black Eyed Peas, broccoli, zucchini, kohlrabi, beet leaves, eggplant, new potatoes. Then pepper should appear on our tables, green pea, young beets, corn, beans. At the beginning of the season, you can open the strawberry season, and then raspberries and currants. In mid-summer, you should more often consume watermelons, gooseberries, peaches, nectarines, and various berries - strawberries, blueberries, blueberries, etc.

Autumn

The main vegetable that comes to mind this time of year is pumpkin - the queen of autumn. The most important vegetables at this time are melons and squashes, zucchini and zucchini. In addition, the harvest begins Brussels sprouts, chicory, endive, black turnip, artichoke. In autumn, cranberries, quinces, plums, and grapes appear. This is also the time for mushrooms.

Winter

At that time natural resources are not available, and we must use the harvest of previous seasons - in the form of canned food, jam, marinades, pickles, eat dried or frozen foods. In addition, at this time of year we must take care of our immunity by providing the body with foods with vitamin C. Among other things, we will find it in citrus fruits, which, although they do not grow in our country, can be purchased in any store. Never forget about nuts, which are also a treasure trove of vitamins and minerals.

Whole year

Each season has its own special “collection” of vegetables and fruits. In addition, there are fruits and vegetables that can be eaten all year round, and these include pears, apples, turnips, onions, garlic, beans, cabbage, carrots, leeks, parsley root, celery, and mushrooms.

Why is it so important to pay attention to seasonality? This is because fruits and vegetables eaten during the time of year when they are harvested contain the most nutrients and are most beneficial to our health. That's what it is main reason, according to which we must adapt to the rhythms of nature and extract from it what it is in this moment ready to share with us.
