Dehydration

Can anyone tell me what the purpose of dehydrating food is? I know one can already buy dried/dehydrated berries and fruits etc but then they are often soaked so what is the actual purpose of dehydrating them yourself and when yo do it, do you then have to rehydrated them to eat them?

I hate having the full belly feeling. I get that when I drink too much water or if I ever drink anything fizzy which I try to avoid. So are you saying that I would not get that feeling if I ate dehydrated food or fresh food?
