A member asked:

Do dried fruits truly contain same nutritional value as fresh ones?

Dr. Andrew Seibert answered

Specializes in Gastroenterology

Generally, anything that you do to food to process it can decrease the nutritional value. Drying fruit normally does not affect the nutritional value much, but there may be some difference. Try to eat fresh fruits and vegetables as much as possible. Good luck.
