Welcome Home Anisha! I'm assuming that you are back from Australia???

MamaSutras - Freezing does not harm enzymes. I buy frozen fruit to make smoothies with and it's incredibly easy and just as or even more nutrtitious than cutting up regular fruit. When they take fresh fruit to freeze it is usually picked much later than the fruit for shipping and hence you have more tree and vine ripened fruit when it's frozen and it is frozen at it's peak of ripeness.

Freezing your own fruits and veggies also makes life much simpler and makes for much less waste. It's also cheaper because you can buy in bulk.

The only thing is that in winter you don't want to eat too much cold only stuff - even if you are in sunny Cal. You would never for instance want to eat all frozen drinks unless you were out in the hot sun all day in high temps. for balance.

I usually have one cold smoothies in the middle of the day when the sun is shining and it's warmest out.

Congratulations on both or your successes!!!!
