A member asked:
Does dried fruit have the same amount of nutrients as fresh fruit?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A bit less . . .: In general, heat used to dehydrate fruit causes loss of heat-sensitive nutrients such as Vitamin C. Aside from that 1/4 cup dried fruit is, for the most part, comparable to 1 cup fresh fruit, aside from H2O content.
