What the difference between “flash pasteurization” and “kettle cook?
All liquid products made from natural, living ingredients are prone to bacterial growth. To help ensure that products do not contain bacteria, they are put through a process of heating (also called pasteurization). However, the process of heating can not only alter the taste, it may also diminish the nutrients contained in the product. Other products are “kettle cooked” which greatly diminishes the nutritional value of the finished product. The best way to ensure key nutrients are not destroyed is to quickly heat and then chill the product. This process is called “flash pasteurization.” Waiora’s new Essential Daily Nutrients product is flash pasteurized. Additionally, nutrient values are tested after production to ensure they meet label claims. The product is quickly heated and cooled to eliminate any bacteria, yet maintains the full nutrient profile.
