Berry Breeze Activated Oxygen Refrigerator Deodorize
Common microorganisms on the surface of fruits and vegetables and within your refrigerator can trigger natural foods to decay and spoil prematurely – and that’s where this useful product comes in.
BerryBreeze oxygenates, cleans, and reinvigorates the produce you store in your fridge, extending both its life and freshness, while preserving its nutritional benefits.
According to the description, activated oxygen neutralises bacteria, mold, and other microbes by blocking ethylene gas that triggers decay, keeping food in a “living” stage.
Now when you stock up on fruits, veggies, meats, and cheeses, you can prolong their shelf life up to 2 to 3 times longer, giving you plenty of time to enjoy your food and reduce waste.
