BENEFITS OF DRIED FRUIT

Dehydrated fruit process

Dehydrated fruits go through a process where free water is removed, which is equivalent to 75 - 90% of the water contained in the fruit, punctually the strawberry has a humidity percentage close to 90%, Sensafruit not only removes the water up to 12-16% humidity depending on the fruit, but also ensures the care and preservation of the nutritional properties of the fruit, handling hot air filtered by convection at low temperatures that do not alter the nutritional properties, and maintaining the quality of the fruit. fruit prolonging its shelf life.

Benefits of dried fruit

At Sensafruit we handle low temperatures between 50 to 70°C, in order to carefully remove the free water from the fruit, obtaining a flake or slice rich in the very components of the fruit, including natural sugars (fructose).

On average, a dehydrated fruit concentrates 4.5 times its nutritional composition, including natural sugars, and this is where the comments about whether dehydrated fruit is really a healthy product are born?

The answer is a clear and resounding YES, dehydrated fruit is a healthy product, since it is 100% fruit, without the addition of chemicals, preservatives and added sugars, we can proudly say that our product is 100% fruit, in addition, the nutritional properties of these fruits are usually preserved. These fruits usually contain a good supply of minerals , such as calcium, potassium, and magnesium. But what they mainly stand out for is their content in vitamins of all kinds , be it any vitamin of the B complex, like vitamin A like vitamin C.

This combination of minerals and vitamins makes possible the good functioning of the organism and protect our immune system from disease and infection.

Now, as we mentioned before, dehydrated fruit concentrates about 4.5 times its nutritional composition, therefore, at Sensafruit we recommend a daily consumption of 40g of dehydrated fruit , which is equivalent to the nutritional composition of approximately 180g, this in order to control the possible excess of sugar, speaking in general of dehydrated fruits especially those with "added sugar", but don't worry at least Sensafruit does not add sugar to its fruits and never will.
