10 Oct Win Go Vida Freeze-Dried Fruit Snacks!
Fruit is certainly one of the healthiest snacks for you, but sometimes you may be craving something different. Freeze-dried fruits are becoming very popular—they’re a crunchy and convenient way to snack on varieties of fruit you may not normally find at your local market. Find out why I snack on GoVida’s tasty fruits (like dragon fruit) and then enter for your chance to win a snack pack!
About Go Vida
The two amazing gals (and moms) who started Go Vida are originally from Columbia and make frequent visits to watch how their fruit are hand-picked and packaged. The snack packs come in three delicious flavors: Kiwi & Mango, Dragon Fruit & Cape Gooseberry and Strawberry & Dulce de Leche. All flavors are gluten-free, nut free and soy-free. The balance of flavors was carefully chosen so you get a delicious burst of flavor in every bite.
Each 0.6 ounce bag is between 60-70 calories and is loaded with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. By using the freeze-dried method, the nutrients are kept intact so you can reap all the benefits.
Here are some of the nutritional benefits these fruits provide:
- Dragon fruit: Rich in fiber, essential fatty acids, as well as compounds that have been shown to lower cholesterol and blood pressure levels. Health magazine recently ranked dragon fruit #11 in their list of “23 super fruits you need now!”
- Gooseberries: An excellent source of vitamin K, this fruit also contains flavonoids and phenols which provide powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Strawberries: I’m a big fan of strawberries – they’re rich in antioxidant vitamins A and C and folate. When freeze-dried, they add a touch of tartness to the mix.
- Mango: Also a great source of antioxidant vitamins A and C, B-vitamins and omega-3 fats this fruit contributes to eye health and aids in digestion.
- Kiwi: This green gem is loaded with more vitamin C than an equivalent amount of orange. It also provides the same amount of potassium you’ll find in a banana.
The prize includes 9 bags of Go Vida snacks:
- 3 (0.6 ounce) bags of Kiwi & Mango
- 3 (0.6 ounce) bags of Strawberry & Dulce de Leche
- 3 (0.6 ounce) bags of Cape Gooseberry & Dragon Fruit
