What is freeze-drying What is freeze-drying Freeze drying is freeze drying, it is one of the most modern methods of food preservation . Freeze-drying was used for the first time in the 1950s in the USA in order to produce light weight and valuable food rations for astronauts and the military. In the freeze-drying process, the product is frozen to a temperature of about -40C, and then in special devices (freeze-dryers) with reduced pressure, the water frozen in the product is converted into a vapor state. As a result of freeze-drying , very high-quality droughts are obtained. A characteristic feature of freeze-dried products is a very small change in the volume of the dried material in relation to the starting material, which significantly distinguishes this method from traditional convection drying, where there is the so-called drying skin. Products dried with this method, thanks to their very low water content, are microbiologically safe and have a very long shelf life . Fruits dried entirely by freeze-drying have a great ability to rehydrate (the process is opposite to drying), ie we can "recreate" fresh fruits from the lyophilisate by adding water to them. However, perhaps the greatest nutritional benefit of freeze-drying is the preservation of the nutritional value . All drying methods that use high temperature unfortunately cause a large loss of valuable compounds (vitamins, antioxidants). From this point of view, freeze-drying is the most advantageous drying method because the product is not exposed to high temperatures. The American blueberry lyophilisate that we put at your disposal comes from a farm where all the principles of good hygiene and production practice are followed . Blueberry varieties have been carefully selected and fertilization is carried out in a strictly defined manner. What does eating blueberries give us? What does eating blueberries give us? Our blueberry lyophilisate has been thoroughly tested for nutritional preservation. We compared it with traditional droughts. The research was conducted in the direction of: antioxidant capacity polyphenol content content of anthocyanin dyes The results that we obtained in an independent laboratory confirm that the losses of the most valuable compounds during the lyophilization method are the lowest. The antioxidant capacity of freeze-dried blueberries is 30% greater than that of traditional dried blueberries, while the losses of this size compared to fresh fruit are minimal and amount to 5%. Anthocyanins give blueberries a vivid color and are abundant in it, thanks to which blueberries have a very high antioxidant potential. American blueberry as a valuable source of anthocyanins and polyphenols is recommended in the diet of anti-cancer prophylaxis . Research in the world is ongoing, but the results obtained so far are encouraging. In laboratory conditions, the addition of these substances to the inhibition of the growth of various cancer cells, especially colon cancer, which suggests that they may play a role in preventing cancer of this organ. Moreover, due to their property of inhibiting the development of new blood vessels, they can keep the already existing microtumors dormant. Od dawna owoce borówki amerykańskiej są polecane przy zwalczaniu biegunek, szczególnie u dzieci. Jest to związane z zawartością związków przeciwbakteryjnych i przeciwwirusowych. Naukowcy działania te przypisują substancjom garbnikowych, które obficie występują w borówkach. Prowadzono też badania na zwierzętach, które dowiodły iż regularne spożywanie wyciągu z borówek powodowało blokowanie przenikania cholesterolu zawartego w diecie do naczyń, szczególnie w obrębie mózgu zmniejszając przez to powstawanie zmian chorobowych. Jak to jeść ? Jak to jeść ? How to consume freeze-dried American blueberry fruit? The possibilities of consuming dried blueberries are practically unlimited and depend only on your imaginations. We recommend eating them in such a way that the valuable compounds contained in these fruits do not degrade under the influence of high temperature. snack (ideal for children and adults, e.g. instead of high-calorie and fatty potato chips) addition to desserts addition to yoghurt addition to muesli and breakfast cereals, wheat bran addition to porridges for children and adults addition to fruit smoothies addition to cakes Copyright © Agro-Smak Realization of www.telvicom.info
