Thanks all, sound like lots of us are doing the same with no detrimental effects, so I'll keep going!]]> Sun, 10 Jul 2011 16:38:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1360364&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1360364 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1356623&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1356623 Author: NovMum

Unless you were heating to the extend that the food was seriously boiling I can't imagine it would have much effect. I know that fats and proteins do break down at high temperatures but if the food has already been cooked can't imagine it would be much different?? I do the same too, cook in bulk and freeze...]]> Fri, 01 Jul 2011 22:39:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1356623&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1356623 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1356134&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1356134 Author: SpecialK

Don't know the answer for sure either, I do the same as kiwilaurie. But you could try defrosting slowly (take the meal out in the morning ) and then heat up on the stove top? I think if you freeze the meal quickly and then heat in the microwave without plastic (gladwrap etcI you should be fine. ]]> Fri, 01 Jul 2011 09:24:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1356134&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1356134 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1355458&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1355458 Author: KiwiL

I don't know the answer for sure, but I still make up heaps of my son's meals in bulk and freeze them. I do the same - defrost and warm in the microwave. I can't imagine that it does any damage to the food. After all - adults heat and eat all the time?]]> Thu, 30 Jun 2011 09:10:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1355458&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1355458 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1355163&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1355163 Author: RuthyH

My 2 year old boy is a fairly picky eater so I have taken to freezing portions of healthy foods he does eat and then heating them for his dinner. My fear is that the freezing then microwaving may be killing off any nutrition in the meals! Does anyone know what the impact of this processing is on the nutritional value of the food? Thanks]]> Wed, 29 Jun 2011 18:05:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39742&PID=1355163&title=nutrition-of-frozen-and-microwaved-food#1355163
