Description
Drying the fruit will remove the water, reducing its weight and size, but the water will not take any energy away, and the fruit will retain all its nutrients, only concentrating to a smaller volume. Dried fruit is rich in vitamins A, B, B1, B2, B3, B6, pantothenic acid, vitamins C and E, minerals such as potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron.
It contains fiber and can cover up to 50% of the recommended daily consumption. With gentle drying, a substantial proportion of the phytochemicals (carotenoids, anthocyanins, folic acid, vitamin C and E) will remain in the fruit, which prevent the oncological and cardiovascular diseases. For example, in prunes you can find high levels of antioxidants and in dried cranberries there are even more than in fresh ones.
