Description

Home Or Domestic Food Dehydrators

Food dehydrators are a great way to reduce your cost of food, increase your nutritional intake and speed up your cooking.

In the past our ancestors relied on the sun to dry out food, but these days it is a process where moisture is removed from foods by circulating air at a very low temperature in an oven-like device including two main designs: stacked shelves and pull out shelves.

In this article we will cover the benefits of using food dehydration plus some great tips on deciding the best machine for your home or business, all backed by Vitality 4 Life’s 30 day return policy, 24/7 customer support and extended warranties.

What are the main benefits of fruit dehydrators?

There are many benefits to dehydrating your food and getting a food hydrator machine. 

Increases your fibre intake

Studies have shown that food dehydration helps to increase the fibre intake of fruits and vegetables. Fibre is an essential nutrient for gut health, digestion and overall wellbeing and many people do not get enough daily fibre according to Australian and American departments of health. 

It is recommended you consume at least 25 - 30 grams of fibre per day. One example of fibre increasing in a fruit dehydrators is apricots. When apricots are dehydrated fresh apricots have 3.1 grams of fibre while dried apricots contain 6.5 grams of fibre.

Increased energy and absorption

Fruit dehydrators can help with concentrating calories in your snacks, providing a longer, sustained energy release for your body.

This is helpful for people who go outdoors on long walks, hikes or camping for example, where sugars are important for long periods of activity without the access to refrigeration.

Increased nutritional content

It has also been shown that food dryer machines increase the nutritional content of food. For example, in fresh apricots there are 0.6 milligrams of iron, whereas in dehydrated apricots it's 2.35 milligrams.

Not only that, but the shelf life of dehydrated foods can be over a year when stored correctly while still maintaining high nutritional content. This preservation also gives you the ability to eat foods that are not in season, adding variety to your overall nutrition all year round.

Just take care to keep your food in portion control as the increase in sugar and smaller size with dehydrated foods make them super yummy and easy to eat!

Decreases the risk of food poisoning

Most foods need water for bacteria to form. This is why you start to notice fresh foods (even when your fridge) eventually grow mould and bacteria. This can lead to food waste, an increase in your weekly grocery bill plus risk of food poisoning from off food.

What are the different types of dehydrators?

At Vitality4life we have a range of high quality commercial dehydrators plus home food dehydrators.

The Biochef Savana Dehydrator 9 Trays

With the advanced BioChef Savana Dehydrator you can select the Fast mode or Regular mode to suit your needs or follow the recommended drying times explained in your included instruction manual. Once these cycles are completed the Two-Stage Sequential Temperature Timer will automatically activate the Warm mode. This keeps your food in an optimum dehydrated state while preventing any moisture from entering the food once the drying process is complete.

- Fast mode : Uses both fan sets to set a default temperature of 70 °c and default drying time of 2 hours. This mode is particularly beneficial for foods with a higher water content to avoid fermentation.

- Regular mode : Uses one fan set to set a default temperature of 50 °c and default drying time of 10 hours. Allows the convenience of using less trays and less energy!

 - Warm mode : The Warm mode automatically starts once either the Fast or Regular mode is complete. The unique Warm drying setting will maintain a low temperature of 35 °c until the unit is turned off.

Simply load your trays with your raw foods, set your desired drying mode and come back to high quality results, every time! This is great for getting more food done in larger batches.
