This, indeed, is a superb idea and this is why they have a large following. They take great care in the preparation in following strict quality control guidelines with an eye towards preservation of active ingredients within the foodstuffs and this is the key to their genuine benefits. When foods are harvested, quickly frozen, and then ground up and repackaged in powder form, such as in being put into capsules for easy ingestion, this will keep them from deteriorating through oxidation, for example, as well as not degrading from being stored for a considerable period of time. It is not they will last forever, but they are a practical source of nutrition just as advertised, and will greatly exceed what the average person enjoys—very, very few individuals in the Modern Era have meaningful diversity in their diet. As you know, there are many, many beneficial chemicals divinely engineered to be expressed within a variety of plants that historically have served as foods but in today’s world are not practical to grow on a mass scale. That has greatly hindered human nutritional quality by restricting what humans rely on to a small number of mass‑produced foods that are not always highest and best to begin with, let alone lacking in the variety of natural phytochemicals of great value for preservation of health. Many such substances throughout the plant kingdom will have benefits even in low concentrations because this acts as an energetic signal, more in turning things on and off, as opposed to providing a large quantity, as in wanting calories for the production of energy, which is a mass need to allow human locomotion, and so forth, as well as thinking. But the maintenance of health and wellbeing and inner balance is a more subtle need, and that can be met through exposure to a variety of trace nutrients that will help greatly to keep a person in a healthy and robust body that works well and adds to longevity.
