Why Freeze Dried Sea Buckthorn?
Why Freeze Dried ? Whatever be the method of Drying or increasing the shelf life of the finished product, viz Sea Buckthorn powder, It would lose a lot of its nutrition when subjected to high temperature while using methods like tray drying or vacuum drying etc. While Freeze Drying method would subject Sea Buckthorn to not more than 30 Deg C maximum, while removing the moisture by way of sublimation.
It is this attribute of Freeze Drying process that keeps the natural contents intact, to the extent, they were there, at the time when the berry was plucked. It is considering this attribute of the process, that Onlynutra came up with the initiative of Freeze Dried Powder of Sea Buckthorn, delivering the 100% nutrition as in the berry, when it was on the plant.
Sea buckthorn products are becoming increasingly popular, we know that sea buckthorn and products made of it became popular mainly because of the exceptional nutritional value of this berry.
Below, we review the most common forms of Sea buckthorn products available in the market, and which form (Freeze Dried Powder/Juice / Oil )is best for you.
Sea buckthorn berries are freshly available only for a couple of months – from mid-summer till early fall in specific region only. Because they are not easy to find , that's why you have to go for Seabuckthorn powder / juice / oil .
But always keep 2 things in mind, first the origin where the berries come from and second, the right process ( is it able to keep the nutrients intact or not ?)
Sea Buckthorn Freeze Dried Powder
Sea buckthorn Freeze Dried Powder is an excellent way to process and preserve the freshly picked berries. If fresh berries are freeze-dried into powder and packaged in air-sealed bags, they remain in excellent condition for up to 3 years. Compared to fresh/frozen berries or juice, sea buckthorn powder is light, easy to ship, and requires no refrigerated conditions. Sea buckthorn Freeze Dried Powder offers almost 100% the same nutrients as fresh berries . Therefore, you can easily order it online and enjoy the health benefits of sea buckthorn berries all-year-round.
Sea Buckthorn Juice
Sea buckthorn juice is another good way to preserve and enjoy sea buckthorn berries all-year-round. As with the powder, the juice must come from the whole berries and not just parts. Often, companies remove certain parts of the whole berry, such as the skin or the seeds from the juice. This has a direct impact on the nutritional value of the product. For example, many of the vitamins and other micronutrients are found in the skin only. Therefore, if the skin was removed before the juice was made, these nutrients will not be present in this product. Last, it is important to check in the ingredients’ list for any added sugars or preservatives. Sea buckthorn has a tangy and sour taste, and therefore the juice will taste as such.
Sea Buckthorn Oil
Sea buckthorn oil is perhaps the most popular sea buckthorn product mainly because of its concentrated amounts of healthy sea buckthorn oils (i.e., omega fatty acids) and antioxidants. The oil usually comes from either the seeds or the pulp of the fruit. In both cases, the whole fruit is pre-processed, and certain parts (and certain nutrients as a consequence) are removed to ensure oil purity. Sea buckthorn oil is predominantly used in the cosmetic industry to produce hair and skin products.
