How healthy is Freeze Dried Papaya & Pineapple?

Studies suggest that an average individual is supposed to consume about 3.5 servings of fruits and vegetables in a day out of which 1.5 servings are set aside for fruits and the remaining for vegetables. This is required to maintain overall physical health and keep your bones, muscles and all your internal organs healthy and thriving. But studies also suggest that due to lifestyle issues, lack of availability, poor quality of food available and general lack of liking towards these healthy foods, under-nourishment is prevalent because barely anyone actually consumes the required amount. This is where the fresh and genius idea of freeze-dried fruits comes into play.

Freeze dried fruits are all about the farm to fork approach, but with a slight detour in between. The hand-picked fruits from across the country undergo a process called lyophilisation. This is where the water content inside the fruit is frozen and then immediately vapourised via sublimation- the process of converting solid directly into gas. So, the end product you’re left with is dried fruit that are crunchy and airy. 

Now, this is where the common misconception comes in. It is commonly believed that along with the water, all the nutrition is also removed from the fruit. This is not true. The best part about freeze dried fruit is that you get to enjoy a true snack (in terms of the crunch) that is packed with good health, all because it is just fruit that has been freeze dried. After the water is removed, only the nutrition remains tightly packed inside the fruit pieces, making them all healthier. So, you get to enjoy the perfect blend of taste and health, with the cherry on the cake being how much it resembles a regular crunchy snack. So, you want to know how healthy they are? Just as much as regular fruit!
