It is all about the colors of the food you eat!!
If you are looking for the best places to get antioxidants, look for foods that have deep rich colors and look for the colors of the rainbow. Carotene is orange, lutein is dark yellow, lycopene is red, some other antioxidants like anthocyanadins and anthocyanins are purple and blue, as in many berries.
We offer whole and powdered freeze dried fruit, free of pesticides and herbicides. In addition some berries are now Certified Organic! Because of the freeze drying process, fruit retains its nutritious and healthful properties without the need for preservatives. Freeze dried fruit is great in flavoring almost any recipe, including smoothies, homemade ice creams, trail mixes, yogurt, kefir, etc.
Freeze dried berries and fruits are the most nutritional way to get fruit when it is out of season. While most berries are only in the stores for a few weeks each year, the only other alternative is to purchase frozen berries. But sometimes these are even scarce. Freeze dried berries do not require any refrigeration or freezing, they retain more nutrients, and the flavors are so concentrated you only a small amount for your favorite drinks, dips, smoothies, dressing, etc. Unlike the fresh fruit that is only available for a short time and then molds, the freeze dried fruit will last 18 months as long as it is stored in a cool dry place.
How are the berries freeze dried?
Ripe, fresh fruit is quickly chilled to temperatures below zero and at the very cold temperatures the moisture in the fruit is removed. Freeze dried fruit melts in your mouth and is rather crunchy. Use the whole fruit for your cereal, trail mix, or eat by the handful. Use the powdered berries for smoothies and drinks.
When we repackaged all these fruits for the first time, I found my children going through the garbage pulling the old packaging material out, turning it inside out, and licking them clean. They had berry powder all over them, but they absolutely loved it. So I took some pictures to share with you.
