Why are freeze-dried raspberries so useful?

Raspberry antioxidants help reduce inflammation

These pieces contain many anti-aging antioxidants. Raspberries are antioxidants. These health-protective compounds are associated with lower rates of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity. Raspberry antioxidants help reduce inflammation, which is a known trigger for premature aging. The natural preservatives in raspberries are also linked to better DNA repair and blocking of the enzymes that trigger arthritis pain. Studies also show that phytonutrients in raspberries, such as ellagitannins, can help kill cancer cells.

Freeze-dried raspberry pieces are high in fiber

A cup of raspberries contains 8 impressive dietary fiber, which is a third of the daily minimum target. This high fiber content also reduces the carbohydrate content of raspberries to about 7 grams per cup (because our body is unable to digest and absorb fiber). This fiber also promotes a feeling of fullness, blocks digestion by slowing down blood sugar and supports good gastrointestinal health. Raspberry fiber also helps beneficial intestinal bacteria to grow and develop. The latter are associated with stronger immunity and a more positive mood.

Raspberries sharpen your brain and memory

Raspberries can help fight oxidative stress, which is essentially an imbalance between the production of free radicals that damage cells and the body’s ability to fight their harmful effects. As oxidative stress is a factor in diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, raspberries provide the main food that supports the brain. It has also been observed that the flavonoids in the berries help to improve coordination, memory and mood. These berries help cleanse the brain of toxic proteins involved in dysfunction.

How to use freeze-dried raspberries in your dishes?

Freeze-dried raspberry pieces provide a beautiful and tasty addition to many dishes and are well suited for both sweet and savory dishes. We recommend using freeze-dried raspberry pieces in muesli or baked goods. If you want to eat freeze-dried raspberries as a snack – a snack instead of candy, we would recommend you whole freeze-dried raspberries, which are convenient to crunch between your fingers. Whip the freeze-dried raspberry powder in the smoothies, or if you want to use the raspberries whole in a salad, moisten them with lukewarm water for a few minutes before, and then use them just like fresh berries.
