The fresh vegetables that we buy in our grocery stores today actually contain fewer vitamins and nutrients than they did 30 years ago and the percentage amount is significant and varies from vegetable to vegetable and by vitamin or nutrient type. Also, store bought vegetables are tasteles and lack flavour. With the nutrient value of stire purchased vegetables and their taste dwindling over time, one way to avoid this is to grow your own garden vegetables - at least during the summer months!
