Yay or Nah?????
Moisture accelerates degradation, clumping, potency loss over time.
Humidity control matters more than people realize long-term.
Water exposure slowly wrecks raws even sealed poorly
Desiccants are cheap insurance for raw longevity overall.
Moisture leads to hydrolysis and reduced stability eventually.
Clumping often signals moisture damage already happening inside.
Dry storage conditions preserve raws far longer overall.
Humidity fluctuations speed degradation faster than heat sometimes.
Moisture contamination invisible until potency noticeably drops later.
Vacuum sealing helps but desiccant still needed inside.
Raws hate water more than light exposure overall.
Moisture causes oxidation pathways to activate quicker inside.
Stable powders turn unstable once moisture creeps in.
Over time humidity quietly destroys raw integrity completely.
Moisture damage explains inconsistent dosing and weird results.
Dry, cool storage massively extends raw shelf-life overall
Once wet, raws rarely fully recover quality afterwards.
Moisture plus heat is worst-case degradation combo overall.
