Our blueberries and blueberry powder is freeze dried which is an optimal drying process used to protect a foods nutritional value while still removing the moisture content. Freeze drying dates back to the ancient Peruvian Incas of the Andes. They found that exposing their food to the heat of the sun, as well as freezing night temperatures, high altitudes, and low air pressure, their food was able to maintain it's natural form while the water had evaporated, leaving it dry and easy to store for long periods of time. They soon realized it would regain its original texture after water was added. It wasn't until World War II that the freeze drying process was commercialized.
SharpWebLabs.com's Freeze Dried products are produced in a process where moisture is removed from the frozen product using a very low temperature and a vacuum. Only about 3% moisture remains in the product at the time of packaging. The end product weight is reduced by over 90%, while the volume stays the same. This remarkable process concentrates the fresh product taste, natural color, and texture of fresh product in its freeze dried state. When re-hydrated with water the product will maintain the texture and shape of fresh product, with no shrinking or shriveling. Freeze Dried and Dehydrated products are less expensive than wet pack food because you are not paying for all the water. Freeze drying provides natural and additive free fruits and vegetables to be stored effectively for long periods of time. They also contain no additives or preservatives.
Brightly colored fruits, especially berries, have been praised as superior health protectors. These edible delights are highly beneficial foods because of the vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and PHYTOCHEMICALS that they contain. ANTIOXIDANTS are a group of phytochemicals, each carrying unique properties valuable for maintaining our health. For more details about types of antioxidants. ORAC, short for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity, is a measure of the total antioxidant score of foods. More specifically, ORAC measures the ability of foods (and other substances like blood plasma) to ‘sponge up’ or remove oxygen free radicals – highly reactive compounds that do tremendous damage to the delicate machinery of our cells. Research suggests that we can benefit most by eating fruits and vegetables that provide 3,000 – 5,000 units of ORAC per day.
