Why Is Freeze Dried Acai Important?
Freeze dried acai berry supplements have a higher retention of nutritional value than other processes. This is because as the water content is removed, a rich pulp is made which has a higher nutrient concentration than the raw fruit itself. Other supplements such as Extracts are made using Spray Dried Fruit. While this is cheaper the process involves heating the acai to high temperatures to evaporate the water content, before spraying the left over residue with a food additive. Unfortunately this cheaper process loses much of the nutritional value of the fruit - kind of defeating the purpose.
