Product Description

The Açai (ah-sigh-ee) palmberry is found in the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil where it grows atop a palm tree, Eurerpe oleracea. The Açai is approximately the size of a blueberry. Açai is considered to be one of the most nutritious fruits on the planet and is packed with antioxidants, vitamins, essential fatty acids (EFA), fiber, and amino acids. To prevent oxidation, Açai berries are harvested quickly and processed into a deep purple powder through a freeze drying process which eliminates the water. For centuries Açai berries have been used as a part of the local diet. An average person may consume as much as two liters of Açai fruit each day. The indigenous people of the Amazon have long used Açai for its energy promoting properties. Açai berries have a taste that can be described as a delicious mix of chocolate and berry.

Acai berries contain significant amounts of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. They also contains high levels of anthocyanins, the plant pigments that give it a purple color. One serving contains more antioxidants than the recommended daily allowance and twice that of the amount found in blueberries. Antioxidants help to prevent cellular damage that causes aging and helps to prevent the development of chronic diseases. Acai berries are a good source of protein and fiber.

Analysis of the Açai fruit reveals an impressive nutrient profile enhanced by several well-known antioxidant agents.

A Top Performing Antioxidant

Açai contains Vitamin C and E which are powerful antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties. Some studies have shown they may help improve asthma and arthritis, as well as, help prevent atherosclerosis, lower the risk of stroke and reduce complications of molecular degeneration in diabetics.

Source of Amino Acids

Açai is a potent source of amino acids; tryptophan, glycine, tyrosine, and phenylaline. These amino acids are essential to the proper balance of brain chemicals and hormones that regulate mood, anxiety, stress response, tendencies for depression, and sleep pattern.

Source of Vitamin B

Açai is a rich source of B Vitamins, which are essential to healthy brain function. This class of vitamins is especially important to the production of dopamine and serotonin, neurotransmittory chemicals that regulate several mental functions, stress reactions, and sleep.

Magnesium Source

Açai contains magnesium a vital anti-stress mineral important for enhancing the body’s capacity to fight free radicals and protect the mitochondria of cells against the effect of oxidative stress.

An Impressive Omega Profile

Açai contains a profile that is similar to olive oil. Studies have shown a strong association between intake of omega-3, omega-9, and oleic acid, and the following conditions; cardiovascular disease, stroke, asthma, arthritis, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, various skin disorders, and molecular degeneration. Açai contains beneficial levels of several EFAs, including oleic acid, linoleic acid (polyunsaturated omega-6), and alpha linolenic acid polyunsaturated omega-3.

Beta Carotene - Vitamin A

Açai is rich in beta carotene, a form of Vitamin A. The British Journal of Nutrition found that a diet low in carotenoids like beta-carotene, diminishes the activity of helper T cells, one of the most important immune cells.

Beta-Sitosterol

Açai is a rich source of beta sitosterol. Studies show that beta-sitosterol is able to enhance immune cell’s function. Another study found that beta-sitosterol is especially beneficial to helper T-cell function, resulting in improved NK and T-lymphocyte function.

Anti-Aging Superfood

According to anti-aging expert, Dr. Nicholas Perricone, M.D., the Açai berry is one of the top ten superfoods. It contains phytosterols which help defend the skin by helping reduce the erosion of the skin’s protective coating. In addition, phytosterols help regulate lipid balance and reduce wrinkles by protecting the skin’s external layers. To retain the skin’s suppleness, it needs omega fatty acids like those found in the Açai berry. Plant sterols have been shown the help control cholesterol and act as precursors to many important substances.
