Dehydrated foods – Health benefits

By

In today’s world, everything has become readymade. Be it food, textiles or anything, people are only interested to purchase things that are readily available. That is why I guess most of you spend your entire weekend in shopping the stuff enough for the whole week. Do you go grocery shopping? Then you would have definitely noticed the dehydrated fruits and vegetables. Many of you will be wondering whether these foods are good for health!

Let me explain you in detail…

What is dehydration?

Dehydration is the process where we squeeze water out from a food product. This is one of the oldest forms of food preservation. It requires no preservatives and it yields tasty food with months of shelf life. Removing moisture from foods makes them smaller and lighter.

Why dehydration?

The main reason for food spoilage is the growth of microbes. Reducing the moisture content of food prevents the growth of these spoilage-causing microorganisms. Hence, this helps to prevent spoilage in dried food.

Dehydrated foods - Health benefits

What are the benefits?

  • Dehydrated food tastes great
  • No preservatives or chemical additives
  • Storing dehydrated food is efficient
  • Cost savings
  • Quality control
  • Portability
  • Replace store-bought snacks and eat healthier
  • Raw food
  • Reduce waste by preserving
  • Buy more quality during “peak” season

What are the health benefits?

* Help to build up a healthy nutritional body

Dried food is great when it comes to its nutritional value. Dried fruits like apricots offer beta carotene and vitamin E in great quantities. These are all essential for your healthy body and mind.

* Easy digestion

Munching on dried fruits on a daily basis is a great way to have a controlled diet. It does not overburden your digestive system. As dried food has most of its water content extracted from it, it is easy for the stomach to digest. It does not make you feel bloated or lethargic as oily or junk food does.

* To maintain a fit and perfect physique

Dehydrated food is delicious to eat. It has all its nutrients and sugars in concentrated form. The small size and lack of fats in these foods makes them perfect for those who like to eat light. With the intake of necessary nutrients, the body will have a healthy growth.

* Provides an instant source of energy

The dried fruits have their sugars in a concentrated form. This is because all the water dries during the dehydration process. These fruits can work as an instant pick-me-up and a source of energy that’s natural with no side effects.

* For healthy eyes and skin

Dried fruits like apples and berries are rich in natural antioxidants. They help you to stave off many kinds of lifestyle diseases. Including antioxidants in your diet is the ideal way to ensure your hair, skin, and eyes are healthy. Dried fruits have a higher concentration of antioxidants than fresh fruit, says study.

Dehydrated foods - Health benefits

* A Check to Constipation

If you’re looking for a rich source of fibre in your diet, here is the solution. Include some dried fruits such as prunes to your diet. Fibre is an essential component of the diet for the better health of stomach. It stimulates bowel activity.  It also ensures good health of your digestive system. The dried fruits have a higher content of fibre.

* Healthy way to gain weight (for lean people!)

Dried fruits are rich in calories that are present in a concentrated form. These are a great source of energy for athletes looking to recover from injuries. If you are looking for healthy ways to gain weight, you can try it!

* Builds body’s Immunity

Drying fruits may destroy the vitamin C, because it gets oxidized. But with some fruits you can get vitamin A and beta carotene which add to the immunity of your body.

* Improves Gastrointestinal Health

There is a high level of glucose in dehydrated foods. It helps in production of gastrointestinal fluids. These fluids soften digested food that passes through the intestines. All these benefits help to improve your bowel movement.

* To Maintain a constant Haemoglobin level

Dehydrated fruits such as apricots contain an impressive amount of iron. In fact, a 100-gram serving of dried apricots contains twice the iron than that of the same serving of beef. It is also four times than the same serving of chicken! High content of Iron helps to maintain your Haemoglobin level in the red blood cells.

* Ensures Bone health

Figs, oranges and blackcurrants are a few of the many dried fruits that are high in calcium. Calcium is a bone-building nutrient that keeps your skeletal system healthy. Dried foods, hence help in building your bone strength.

*Zero Cholesterol – Eating dried fruits and vegetables can be addicting. You would be glad to know that dehydrated foods contain zero cholesterol. It also has zero trans-fat, and sodium. These convenient snacks make the perfect diet because they are low in calories and high in fibre! Even better, you can bring a packet of dried fruits and veggies and take it with you on the go.

Dehydrated foods - Health benefits

What is the necessity for Dehydrated food?

  • You can enjoy your favourite food as a daily snack. You can also pack it up and take it with you on your camping trips with no fear of spoilage.
  • Often, people are allergic to chemicals or preservatives. So, dehydrating food will be the best option for them to enjoy the deliciousness.

What are the cons?

I already mentioned that drying does not diminish the fibre and sugar content of food. But some nutrients might get washed away during blanching, heating and air drying. For instance, a fraction of vitamins like A, B and C might get destroyed, and some minerals might get lost.

Why should you prefer this?

Dehydrating food is a simple and convenient way of preserving and storing foods. These foods will someday come in handy. It is a delicious and healthy snack. It is an ingredient for cooking and also a source of energy for campers and hikers. It is also the best gift option for family and friends.

So finally, it is very much easy to dry the food that you like and store it for future. As they say “Make hay while the Sun shines!”

HARDWORK VS SMARTWORK

In today’s fast pace world. Output is what matters. Every human invention has been created to enhance our capability to produce outcome in the most efficient way possible. We try to produce maximum output with minimum input of time and energy.

The mantra to achieve success is what?

Contrary to traditional belief it’s handwork but contrary to modern belief its smart work.What is the difference between these two?

Hard work means putting more physical effort than mental effort.

        Advantages of Hard work:

  • Through hard work, we gain knowledge and experience. This will help us to do work smartly in future.
  • Hard work teaches us patience and discipline.
  • We feel self-satisfied after we get our desired outcome.

        Disadvantages of Hard work:

Hard working day.
Hard working day.
  • Hard work is boring and monotonous, at times.
  • It consumes a lot of time and effort.
  • Hard work doesn’t allow us to fully use our brain and as a result, we put more physical efforts.
  • It isn’t an efficient method, generally.
  • Working hard is not enough to achieve our goals.

 Smart work means putting efforts efficiently to get results.

        Advantages of Smart work:

  • Smart work improves our innovative and creative thinking skills.
  • Smart work enhances our productivity.
  • It teaches time management skills.
  • Smart work  demands complete mental presence and hence improves our concentration power.
  • Smart work is really the need of the hour.
  • Smart work makes us more organized and systematic.

        Disadvantages of Smart work:

  • Smart work may makes us lazy, as we get used to do less work and get more output.
  • Mere smart work may not yield results. “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard”. Hence, we cannot completely rely on smart work.
  • To work smartly, at first, we need knowledge about the work, which comes only with hard work and experience.

I would like to add that working smart isn’t everyone’s cup of tea surely.

Being smart isn’t easy.

Being smart takes a lot of effort. People need to read more, continuously keep learning new stuff, try to benefit from others’ experiences, sharpen their thinking skills by being able to predict the outcomes before mindlessly putting any effort in any direction, and being able to manipulate the given resources to suit their requirements.

We say work smart, but the important question is how to work smart?

Those who use their smartness to avoid their work to run away from hardships are actually lazy. And this often backfires in long run.

You cannot outrun the fact that,

Talent and skill set are the pre-requisites for smart work.

Now what if you are not talented enough. How can you do smart work?

By handwork.

You work hard to become smart.

Hence, handwork is essential for smart work.

One important conclusion we derive from this is:

Hard work and smart work aren’t two contradictory terms rather smart work is a subset of hard work.

Working hard, working smart
Working hard, working smart

If you want to become smart, you must emphasize the things written below:

1.DEVELOP CREATIVITY

The future belongs to the creative people. If you want to create value in the creative society, your brain muscle must be as strong as possible. Smart workers read, develop street smart skills and make sure they become extremely resourceful. They invest massively into developing useful and practical knowledge.

2.ACQUIRE TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS

Smart workers know that time is the most prized resource they have. They value their time the most in life. Thus, smart workers learn how to manage their time wisely.

3.UNDERSTANDING THE SYSTEM

Everything is some kind of a system. Education, healthcare, politics, finance, etc. To make better decisions, you can analyze almost everything in life as a system. The better you understand the system, the smarter you can work, because you can make better decisions.

4.BEING CLEAR ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT

Smart workers have a very clear picture of what they want.  Because they know what they want, they build their strategy much more easily and make better choices in the process. They work hard for it in a smart way. They have a strategy. Hard workers have a vague idea of what they want and hence don’t take the best decisions or they simply believe that solely their hard work will pay off. 

5.BEING OPTIMISTIC

Always have a positive outlook on life, no matter how hard things are. We can’t live a positive life with a negative mind, so you can’t work smart with negative thinking.

When we’re experiencing negative emotions, our creative and thinking horizon contracts. We focus all our constructive energy on negative emotions. As a result, we fail to see prospective opportunities . When we have a negative outlook on life, we simply start lagging behind.

6.CAREFULLY SELECTING THE RIGHT OPPORTUNITIES

We can drown in opportunities. Therefore, smart workers very carefully select the opportunities they engage with. They have no problem saying no. They’re patient and wait for the one right thing with low risk and massive potential return.

Our energy and resources are very limited, thus as a smart worker, we have to choose our battles very carefully. If we say yes to everything, we will burn out sooner or later. A burnt-out worker is not a smart worker.

7.THINKING AND RESEARCHING BEFORE ACTING

Hard workers just do work, because they were told to do something or because they need to escape the hard facts of life or they feel more important when working or whatever other emotional reason there is. Smart workers always think before they act – for every single activity they analyze: “Why am I doing this, how much of my resources will it take, what will be the rewards, what is the optimal way to do the job, which tools can help speed up the process,”.Smart workers are aware that every hour of planning can save many hours in execution.

HENCE, FOR ACHIEVING YOUR GOALS YOU HAVE TO WORK HARD AS WELL AS SMART.

In order to attract more people and viewers on Twitter, broadcasters from the United States, Australia and many other countries competing in the World Cup 2018 will live-stream and broadcast any content related to the tournament on the social media site.

According to a media report, every night during the World Cup, broadcasters from the United States like Fox Sports and those from Australia like SBS will air live analysis and pre-match shows on the platform.

Brands

A number of brands are getting involved as well. Leading up to this year’s tournament, Techate has made a storyline of a number of Mexican football fans cheering their team with their motto, #RusiaNosHaráHéroes, which translates to “Russia will make us heroes”.

 

When the 2018 FIFA World Cup group stage draw was held in December last year, Corona hosted a simultaneous streaming broadcast with its own celebrity and athlete talk show.

 

Announcements

 

These are among some of the preludes which may be happening during the World Cup. Twitter will be working with a number of brands to engage fans during the tournament, its executives explained their plans at an event in New York City on Tuesday.

 

“World Cup 2018 is the most global event in the history of our content partnerships business,” said Jay Bavishi who happens to be one of Twitter’s senior partnerships manager for global content.

 

Partnerships

Till now, 24 partnerships have been signed across 12 countries for delivery of on-field content, studio analysis and behind-the-scenes coverage. Brazil, France and Spain are the teams among to be featured by Twitter as they train and travel around Russia.

Studies

Twitter executives showcased the results of a research they had commissioned which showed more people used Twitter and stayed longer on the platform during important live events than on any other social media sites.

“It’s the first place that communities come to watch what’s happening and talk about it,” said Twitter’s VP global revenue and partnerships, Matt Derella.

 

Beginning

Fox Sports had announced that it will stream a live show, World Cup Now, hosted by Rachel Bonnetta on Twitter back in January. While the show debuted in March, according to the world cup schedule the first match is between Russia and Saudi Arabia on 14th of June.

The land of India is well known for its herbal resources. Ayurveda, one of the oldest forms of medicine, uses these resources. It suggests remedies that cure serious health issues. There are many Ayurvedic remedies that help your body to stay healthy. One such a remedy is the Golden Milk. Golden milk is consumed all over the world by many people. This is treated as one of the best medicines for many health disorders.

What is Golden Milk?

Golden milk is an ancient Ayurvedic recipe for a wide range of health issues. Golden milk is also called Turmeric milk. The main ingredient used in its preparation is Turmeric. It is very simple to prepare and also contains many nutrients. The Golden milk has a striking golden colour. When taken with Coconut milk, it is a delicious turmeric beverage. It is Caffeine free and a healthy substitute to coffee and tea.

Golden milk is being used at bedtime as a home remedy. Drinking a cup of warm turmeric milk will settle your stomach. It will make you sleepy. The spices provide extra flavour and warm up the body.

Why is Turmeric the main ingredient?

Turmeric is the ingredient that gives Golden Milk its Golden Soul. It has a long history in natural medicinal use. The usage of turmeric in India is very old and used in various forms. It helps as a beauty aid, spice and a medicine. It is as an all in one herb with amazing properties. It is thus not surprising that turmeric has such a place in Ayurveda.

Benefits of turmeric

Turmeric is world-wide accepted for all these reasons. It is

  • anti-inflammatory
  • antioxidant
  • antiviral
  • antifungal
  • antimicrobial
  • antibacterial

Turmeric is similar in appearance to Ginger. It belongs to the ginger family. It has high quantities of the bioactive compound curcumin.

Recipe for turmeric milk

Golden Milk - Preparation and Uses

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of milk
  • ½ tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp honey (optional)
  • ½ tsp ghee
  • 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch Cardamom/Cinnamon powder

Instructions

  1. Heat Milk on low heat.
  2. Stir in the Turmeric powder, crushed Black Peppercorns, Cardamom / Cinnamon powder.
  3. Bring to boil and put it in sim for 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Turn off the heat and pour the milk into the cup.
  5. Add Ghee / Coconut oil / Almond oil (if needed).
  6. Add 1 tsp of Honey once the milk has cooled enough to touch.
  7. Drink the milk while its warm.

Precautions

* If you are using honey in this recipe, keep this in mind. Only when you remove milk from the stove, add honey. Heating honey at high temperature changes its chemical composition. Hence it is harmful for our body.

* According to Ayurveda, it is not recommended to take ghee and honey in same proportion. It leads to poisonous effect on the body. Ghee and honey should always be in the ratio of 1:2.

* If you are a vegan, you can use dairy- free milk.

* If you are using non-dairy milk, then avoid boiling it. It may curdle.

* Ayurveda suggests drinking milk in the evening (after sunset) or at the bed time. The secretion of enzymes required to digest milk in the human body is active during this part of the day.

Medicinal Significance of ingredients used

*Black pepper:
