I like to make a bowl of muesli with frozen berries in the evening, pour in some oat or soy milk, and then leave it in the fridge overnight for the berries to melt and the oats to get mushy.
Recently I started wondering though if some nutrients are lost in the process of the berries soaking for 12 hours? 🤔
(Not sure if it matters, but the berries are strawberries, bilberries, red currants, and lingonberries.)
no this shouldn’t affect nutrient composition. it’s mostly excess exposure to oxygen, light, or heat that can decrease certain vitamins (and minerals are pretty stable in most conditions). i would just keep it covered / in a closed container
