FAQs

"Five a day" is a public health campaign that encourages people to eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables every day. The idea behind this initiative is to promote a balanced and nutritious diet by incorporating a variety of fruits and vegetables, which are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. Meeting the "five a day" recommendation is considered a simple and effective way to improve overall health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. The specific quantity and types of fruits and vegetables can vary based on individual needs, but the general guideline is to aim for five servings each day.

"Qali Kay" in Quechua, a language indigenous to the Andean region of South America, translates to "healthy". Quechua is rich in terms that reflect the culture's close relationship with nature and emphasis on community and well-being. The phrase "Qali Kay" reflects this, emphasizing health and vitality, which are central values in many indigenous Andean communities.

When we pack our smoothies and snacks, we print a "Best Before" date on the pack, which indicates for how long it will be at its freshest – generally 1 year from when you receive it. Please note that as our products are mostly dried, they can be good past the “best before” date if kept sealed and in a cool dry place. Nevertheless, our products are at their best if consumed before the best before date. Past these dates the appearance, texture and taste of the products might change as the products age and mature.

Our snacks are made from real organic and premium fruit and vegetables. For chocolate covered snacks we also use organic cacao, organic soy lecithin and organic milk. You can read the full list of ingredients on each product page and on the back of each pack.

We craft our products using premium and organic fruits and vegetables, relying on the availability of high quality fresh ingredients. Consequently, some popular flavors may temporarily go out of stock if a specific ingredient is in limited supply. Please be assured that we are diligently working to replenish the inventory and bring all your favorite flavors back to the shop as quickly as possible.

Organic Freeze-Dried Fruit products are not considered raw as they are not in their natural state. Using a freeze-drying process removes the moisture without heating the fruit, allowing the nutrients contained in our fruits to remain intact.

No, we never use chemicals in our freeze-drying process.

There are no additives in our Freeze-Dried Food products except for the Organic Apples for which we use a brine solution. A brine solution is a natural solution used to preserve the freshness and color of our apples, and is made from water, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), citric acid and salt.

Our smoothies and snacks do not have added sugars or sweeteners or any kind. Our freeze-dried fruits and vegetables only contain the sugar that is naturally occurring in the fruit. They are not a low-calorie food; see the nutrition information on each bag for calorie and sugar content.

Each serving of our smoothies contains at least two and a half servings of fruit and/or vegetables. It is the equivalent of two and a half cups (200g) of fresh produce.

With our 8 ready-to-mix, individual, organic smoothie powders, you can mix and match your favorite fruits and veggies in seconds: Fill your shaker with 8oz of your favorite liquid (water, milk, mill alternative), add your favorite smoothie powder (you can mix and match), shake it until smooth! That's it.

For optimal enjoyment, we recommend consuming our freshly prepared smoothies within an hour. If you prefer to prepare them in advance, store the smoothie in the refrigerator and consume it within 24 hours. Similar to fresh fruit, once the liquid is added, room-temperature smoothies may undergo oxidation and fermentation in the bottle over time.

Here are a few tips to help you make the perfect smoothie:

• Liquid First! Add liquid first, then add your smoothie powders
• Whisk it! Use the wire whisk ball provided with the shaler bottle
• Swirl it! Give the bottle a gentle swirl before you shake. It will wet all the ingredients and prevent lumps
• Add some rotation! Shake by rotating your wrist.

Our smoothies are made exclusively from natural organic fruits and vegetables and spices. You can read the full list of ingredients on each product page and on the back of each pack.

Rinse the bottle immediately after use, Fill the bottle with warm, soapy water, if possible, let the bottle soak for 15-30 minutes, Scrub the bottle with a bottle brush, Rinse the bottle thoroughly with clean water, Air dry the bottle upside down.

When we pack our smoothies, we include a "Best Before" date, specifying its peak freshness which is usually for 3-6 months after you receive the product. This date, comprising a month and a year, guarantees optimal quality until month-end. For freeze-dried products like ours, the printed Best Before Date reflects quality, not food safety. You can enjoy a smoothie safely up to three months beyond its "Best Before" date. Due to natural ingredients, anticipate minor changes in color, texture, and flavor over time.

The bags used to pack our Freeze-Dried Snacks are not recyclable. The freeze-dried products require bags made of a certain material and thickness to preserve the quality, crunchiness, and nutrients of the product. We are conscious of new packaging innovations and look to identify new earth-friendly options that also meet our requirements for preservation.
