Is Kale Powder as Nutritious as Fresh?

Mar 17

Here at OnlyKale, we're passionate about providing you with the most convenient and effective ways to incorporate the incredible benefits of kale into your daily life. One question we often hear is: "Is kale powder as nutritious as fresh kale?" It's a great question, and we're here to provide you with an expert answer based on our knowledge and commitment to quality.

The Power of Fresh Kale

Fresh kale is definitely a nutritional powerhouse. As we highlight on our website, this green leafy vegetable is packed with A, C, and K vitamins, along with minerals like calcium, potassium, and magnesium. And to top it all off, it's a treasure trove of antioxidants in the quercetin and kaempferol forms and is high in fiber. All of these nutrients have a contribution to overall health and can help support your immune system, digestive health, and more.

But young kale isn't always so simple. It has to be washed and chopped up and will immediately wilt in the refrigerator. This is where kale powder comes into play as an effortless alternative.

How Kale Powder Stacks Up

We at OnlyKale freeze-dry our kale powder such that much of the nutritional value in fresh kale is retained. We have discovered, to the best of our research, that fresh kale and freeze-dried packets of kale have extremely negligible differences in nutritional value, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Freeze drying is a superior method of preserving nutrients compared to other drying methods. Freeze drying eliminates the exposure to heat, which will kill vitamins and antioxidants. That leads to us having a high concentration of the vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants found in fresh kale in our kale powder.

Our superfood greens are in easy packets that are easy to use. No washing, chopping, or wilting to deal with! Just add it in a hurry to smoothies, soups, salads, or even baked goods.

Because kale powder is dehydrated, it is denser than fresh kale. What that translates to is that you can take in a lot of nutrients in a fairly small portion. Kale powder also lasts much longer than fresh kale, which makes it an excellent pantry staple.

Even though some minor loss of nutrients does occur during the freeze-drying process, it is minimal. The convenience factor makes kale powder an excellent method for obtaining your daily greens.
