use them for a dazzling smile
These fruits contain xylitol, a sweet substance that prevents the formation of dental plaque and kills the germs responsible for bad breath.
Strawberries are good for the brain
Strawberries have a high ability to stimulate a natural mechanism that leads the brain to «self-clean», eliminating toxic substances that favor the reduction of brain functions, such as memory, and the onset of dementia, including Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s.
The fruits useful against wrinkles and water retention
The vitamin C content of strawberries promotes the production of collagen, a protein that prevents wrinkles and strengthens capillaries by reducing water retention and cellulite. This anti-retention action is enhanced by potassium, a mineral that strawberries are rich in.
Strawberries: help with weight loss
The antioxidants contained in strawberries (ellagic acid, vitamin C and flavonoids) help lose weight because they increase the production of a hormone called adiponectin, which stimulates metabolism and reduces appetite, and decreases the absorption of starches. In addition, they are able to control the blood sugar level and thus prevent diabetes and the formation of abdominal fat.
Blueberry
Blueberry is so good for the presence of vitamins and essential mineral salts for our body,
which give berries an antioxidant action.
A help in the fight against timeThese fruits boast antioxidant properties capable of inhibiting the formation of free radicals, responsible for cellular aging. This is made possible thanks to the presence of numerous mineral salts, such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, sodium and potassium, while vitamins A and C, contributing to the health of the collagen responsible for cellular regeneration of the skin, are perfect allies against wrinkles.
Excellent fat burnersThe antioxidant elements present in the bilberry also have an effect on the metabolism of the cells, going so far as to alter the abdominal fat; it seems, in fact, that both the catechins and the polyphenols present in blueberries activate the fat-burning genes in the abdominal fat cells, triggering a real fight against weight.
Draining and diureticsThese fruits are also excellent for their anti-inflammatory, diuretic and disinfectant properties of the urinary tract. Thanks to the water and mineral content, blueberries promote diuresis and counteract water retention. They also prevent urinary infections such as cystitis and urethritis, both by stimulating diuresis and by preventing the adhesion of bacteria to the urinary tract wall.
Anti-Inflammators
Blueberry has excellent anti-inflammatory properties, especially if the intestine is inflamed. In fact, it is often recommended in case of diarrhea or ulcers because of its ability to also act on the enzymatic activity of the intestine by deflating, inflaming and contributing to its regular motility.
Anti-Cancer
Several researches have shown that the anthocyanins present in blueberries (but also other substances such as resveratrol) have anticancer properties, above all they are useful in the preventive phase also thanks to the ability to act on the immune system helping it in its defense activity.
Rich in vitamins and mineral salts
If eaten frequently when in season, fresh blueberries ensure an excellent dose of vitamins for our body, in particular C, A, E and group B including folic acid. The quantity of mineral salts is also good, especially potassium. By varying with other fresh fruits and vegetables you will get the maximum benefits.
Protect the heart and circulation
Blueberries are often recommended for those suffering from venous problems: swollen legs, cramps, varices, hemorrhoids and other circulatory problems that intensify especially in the hot season. In this case, it may not be enough to include fresh blueberries in your diet every day but it will certainly prove more useful to take a supplement with high concentrations of blueberry active ingredients. Some research has also highlighted the ability of blueberry to lower the concentration of bad cholesterol (LDL).

different in shapes and colors.

The best quality for our customers
To always guarantee our customers the best quality with the maximum nutritional benefit – from fast frozen fruit (IQF), we have the best fruit, all year round.
With this technology, the cold penetrates quickly because each portion of the product is frozen individually. With IQF technology, fruit is frozen in about 2-4 seconds, instead of the old way of several hours. This blocks the goodness and nutrients of the fruit.According to Fitness Magazine, fruit frozen using this method has as much nutritional value if not more than the «fresh» fruit on the shelves.
In 1998, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) confirmed that IQF frozen fruit has the same essential nutrients and health benefits as fresh fruit.
The best quality – To get the best quality of ingredients in each of our smoothies because we use IQF fruit specially grown and selected for Frigodar.
Guarantee of only high quality fruit and at the right point of ripeness.
Our IQF frozen fruit is unpasteurized and retains the taste, goodness, flavor and nutritional values of fresh fruit. It is simply fruit harvested, washed and frozen, without cooking the whole process takes place within two hours.
The fast freezing process blocks the vitamins and enzymes of the fruit in just 2-4 seconds and thus the nutrients of the fruit are preserved for the entire life of the product.
Fresh fruit very often contains fewer vitamins and nutrients than our IQF fruit, as many of the nutritional values are lost almost immediately after harvest, often the «fresh» fruit available in stores can take several days if not weeks.
