There are many benefits to eating berries, whether they are fresh or dried. Dried berries are a concentrated source of nutrients, so you get more vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants per bite. They are also a great source of fiber. Just be sure to choose brands that have no added sugar.
Dried blueberries are a healthy snack option because they are low in calories and fat and high in fiber. Additionally, dried blueberries contain antioxidants that can help protect against cancer and other diseases.
There's no definitive answer to how many dried blueberries you can eat in a day, as it depends on factors like your age, activity level, and overall health. However, most experts recommend limiting yourself to around 1-2 ounces (28-56 grams) of dried fruit per day. This amount provides some of the nutritional benefits of fresh fruit without overloading on sugar. So, if you're looking to add some dried blueberries to your diet, aim for a moderate portion size and enjoy them as part of a healthy, balanced diet.
Dried berries are a healthy snack option and can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. A good rule of thumb is to aim for 1/4 cup (or around 30 grams) of dried berries per day. Keep in mind that dried berries are more concentrated in terms of calories and sugar than fresh berries, so it’s important to not overdo it. When choosing dried berries, look for brands that use minimal processing and no added sugar.

I eat raisins all the time. The other day, it occurred to me that Ocean Spray essentially controls the market for items linked to cranberries, and for good reason — they make cranberry products the best. These are nicely sweetened and tangy without being sickening or candy-sweet. For a lovely additional sharpness and sweetness with good texture, I like to toss them in salads or on sandwiches. However, I also enjoy taking a few and eating them on their own as a quick snack. They taste well in homemade trail mix as well. This extremely fantastic product is made even better by the enormous resealable value pack (that does a good job of keeping these fresh). When I eventually run out, I'll most sure repurchase these.

Over the past 1.5 years, I've had these on and off. The always do well. I deduct a star since perhaps in two bags there were a few berries with an unfavorable flavor. They may have had some mold, I think. However, there were thousands of berries in the sack; this was just a small number. That wouldn't make me avoid the product, though. The moistest berries I'd gotten were in the bags with a few rotten berries. I don't know if it's feasible to walk that line without occasionally stepping over because I prefer a wet berry. I've also received bags that weren't as wet, and I think it would be challenging to monitor because of seasonal variations. These are often tasty and pleasant. They're good, and I'll buy more.

Good value and excellent quality! You don't read the product descriptions if you claim that they are dried. People who purchase goji berries from various brands are aware that they are all essentially the same. Some are slightly crunchier than others, slightly larger than the others, but otherwise nearly identical. I especially like this brand because each fruit is a little bit bigger than typical goji berries from other brands. Price-wise, organic goji berries varied from $13.75 per pound (when purchasing two or more pounds) to $15.99 per pound (buying only one pound). As a result, this brand's price is reasonable given the quality it provided. Additionally, all goji berries come from China, unlike rice and other foods, but as long as you have the USDA Organics and Non-GMO Projects certifications, there won't be any issues. Good fortune!

Goji berries are a staple in my smoothies, overnight oats, and plain yogurt. I like the earthy, berry flavor and the somewhat chewy texture. You won't need more than a spoonful to obtain the flavor and antioxidants, so the 16oz bag will last you a very long time. The recommended serving size of 3 tablespoons is ridiculous as it contains 13g of sugar and more vitamin A than your body requires, especially if you consume a diversified diet and obtain vitamin A from other food sources. I'm on my third bag from this brand, and I haven't experienced any mold problems. I put mine in an open, closed pantry closet that isn't close to the stove and store it in a clear, airtight container with a wide lid opening for convenience. I usually go through a bag in a year, and I haven't had any issues. I'll admit that some batches are drier and firmer than others. So it appears that the berries vary in their level of drying, but I don't mind this.

I bought these so I could have a non-perishable, healthy snack for kayaking days—and because I enjoy the fruit's gentle bite. I was happy to find them because organic and fair-trade bananas (along with chocolate, coffee, tea, cotton, and other products) make a significant difference for the environment and the people who grow them. Notes Regarding Labeling: Although I can't find any information on potassium on the label, it doesn't seem that freeze-drying would destroy it, therefore I'm not sure if there was a mistake. It seems from some other reviews that this company's products may occasionally have labeling issues (such as the calories per serving don't match the calories or serving size on my fitness tracking app, the package says gluten-free but fine print says produced in a facility that processes wheat, so not sure if they guarantee no cross-contamination for those with severe allergies, etc.). The packaging for my initial order from them indicated that it was fair-trade. On the reverse of the second, it was hinted at but not stated. Anyhow, it seems to be a product created responsibly, they were sweet and had a wonderful texture, and the bags I received had a generous amount in them, so for my purposes, they received 5 stars.

The term "superfood" is frequently used these days, and while it can be a little unpleasant, it definitely applies to goji berries. I just consider superfoods to be foods that treat or prevent chronic illness rather than causing it. For instance, potatoes, which contain acrylamide, are probably responsible for the rising rates of diabetes and cancer. Spinach? It is a "superfood" because, in contrast to potatoes, it may treat diabetes and prevent cancer. What is so unique about gojis, exactly? Zeaxanthin and, to a lesser extent, mixed carotenoids in general can be found in them, which is quite astounding. Additionally, they contain special polysaccharides that may be used to treat diabetes as well as stimulate the immune system. They are the healthiest meal you can consume for your eye health because they most likely have the highest concentration of zeaxanthin of any food on the globe. My vision is as clear as it was when I was a child after two months of consuming 1/4 cup daily. Many Americans don't consume enough vitamin A in their diets, whether it comes from carotenoid-rich plants or animal sources of preformed vitamin A. I really believe that in order to receive enough mixed carotenoids, we need to eat some kind of superfood (rather than take a pill). The best options are goji berries, spirulina, and red palm oil. After consuming one of these "superfoods," you'll soon discover that your vision and skin quality have improved. As far as these specific gojis are concerned, they are of rather average quality, quite hard, and dry, but they have that lovely goji flavor, similar to the aroma of the air in a Chinese herb shop. At some point, I tried almost every brand of goji berry available on Amazon, and I took note of a few things. #1 The fact that most goji berries are similar, especially these common little hard dry goji, is a good thing. I believe they dry goji berries more than raisins just to keep them from molding during their arduous voyage from China to the West after one brand I reviewed handed me one of the two bags with mold in it. Dragon Herbs Heaven Mountain Gojis are the only brand I've tried that is significantly different; although they aren't organic and they're pretty expensive, they are actually quite large and moist. I want to go with the most affordable decent standard organic gojis I can find for the time being, and these meet the bill. You will be doing your body a great favor if you eat 1/4 cup of these gojis and a few ounces of walnuts for one of your meals. Wishing you luck, friends!
