Extraordinary Health Benefits

Graceland Fruit's infused fruit and vegetable ingredients bring additional health benefits to a wide variety of consumer products. In fact, one cup of dried fruit has the same nutritional value as two cups of fresh or frozen fruit.* Graceland also offers a number of health related options including GMO-free, organics, and naturally infused products.

Research has proven that people who eat more fruits and vegetables as part of an overall healthy diet have a reduced risk of some chronic diseases. For example:

• Blueberries, cherries, apples and cranberries are particularly high in essential vitamins such as vitamin C and cancer-fighting antioxidants.
• Broccoli provides antioxidants, along with high levels of vitamin C, folic acid, calcium, magnesium and dietary fiber.
• Beta-carotene-rich carrots are high in antioxidants and an important source of vitamin A, which keeps eyes and skin healthy.
• Sweet corn is a good source of vitamin C and folate, which helps the body form red blood cells.

By using Graceland's fruit and vegetable ingredients, many of these same health benefits can become a valued benefit in new consumer products.
