How nutritious are Power Blend salad mixes vs cutting up all the ingredients and making it yourself?

Here's the link to the one in particular I'm referencing: [https://www.veggiesmadeeasy.com/products/power-blend/](https://www.veggiesmadeeasy.com/products/power-blend/) It's got a lot of great stuff in there, and I love the convenience. But is it actually less nutritious than if I gather each ingredient and cut up the mix myself?

Answer

I’m not aware of any studies examining the difference. Just by observation there should not be much if any difference. These pre packaged bags are not highly processed or cooked, so there is very little difference if you were buying each vegetable separately. Granted selecting your own individual vegetable means you can screen for greener greens, brighter carrots… etc. But the differences seem negligible.
