Description
Freeze-dried carrots contain a lot of beta-carotene – an antioxidant that is digested into vitamin A. They are a good source of fiber and offer other health benefits such as some B vitamins and vitamin C.
Freeze-dried vegetables have as many nutrients as fresh vegetables and sometimes even more. This is because the vegetables that go to freeze-drying are harvested at their top level. They are then cleaned, cut immediately and freeze-dried. Thus, most of their vitamins and minerals are well preserved. In contrast, fresh vegetables may have been sitting on the supermarket shelf for some time before going to the plate. Also, they do not have to be picked when ripe, but are picked semi-raw and they ripen in a wholesale warehouse and on a store shelf.
In any case – fresh or freeze-dried carrots – eat them with your heart. They are full of vitamins, minerals and nutrients. Every vegetable that reaches your plate is good!
Freeze-dried carrots are the perfect snack – it’s crisp, full of nutrients, low in calories and sweet.
They are associated with heart and eye health, improved digestion, and even weight loss.
