Research studies around the world are now uncovering the wide array of phytonutrients that are contained in fruits and vegetables that make them an important part of a nutritious diet. These nutrients offer many benefits, not unlike the antioxidants we hear so much about. Kettle Valley Fruit Snacks may contain the same important phytonutrients as whole apples (e.g., quercetin, numerous other flavonoids).
Fruit sugars such as those found in apple products serve as an immediate source of energy. And because apple products taste so good, they are readily consumed by infants and children.
Apple based fruit snacks have a nutrient/calorie ratio superior to many of the alternative snacks being consumed by children. One serving of Kettle Valley’s 20 gram fruit snack is equivalent to a ½ cup of fruit, according to the meal planning guidelines published jointly by the American Dietetic Association and American Diabetes Association. To the contrary, not so natural fruit roll-ups and gummy bears, which contain added sugars and are largely devoid of fruit phytonutrients, are not considered acceptable alternatives to whole fruit and are to be "used sparingly" like other sweets (according to the Food Guide Pyramid).
In keeping with recent health professionals’ recommendations to increase servings of fruits and vegetables and reduce the amount of fat in the diet, apple products can make an important contribution to a well-balanced diet.
