The acai berry has officially taken over as the No 1 super-food in the natural health market, not only because it contains higher levels of antioxidants than any other super-food, but it’s also packed with many other essential vitamins and minerals. The açai palm is native to tropical Central and South America, growing primarily in swamps and floodplains. The acaiberry is described as a small, round, purple drupe similar in appearance and size of grapes but with less pulp. Global demand for the benefits of acai has grown exponentially in recent years due to its antioxidant properties which protect the body from free radicals.
Antioxidants are compounds which safely interact with free radicals and thus prevent cell damage. They slow down the aging process by preventing free radicals from oxidizing biological molecules or reducing the production and accumulation of such substances in the body. They are also known to help boost the immune system which is responsible for fighting diseases like common colds caused by viruses. In addition, antioxidants are credited with the prevention of chronic illnesses such as cancer, Alzheimer, heart disease, stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, among others. Hence, it is not difficult to understand why the acai berry and its truckload of antioxidants are so highly desired.
Other acai benefits include generous amounts of Omega oils (Omega 3, 6, and 9), natural fiber, 19 different amino acids, three different plant sterols that promote heart health and aids digestion, vitamins B1, B2, B3, C and E as well as the essential minerals potassium, calcium, copper, magnesium and zinc. If that’s not enough, acaiberry also contains flavanoids which promote production of antioxidants in the liver. Among the known flavanoids that give the acaiberry its potent antioxidant properties are homoorientin, orientin, taxifolin, deoxyhexose, isovitexin, scoparin, proanthocyanidins and resveratrol.
Acai Berry can be taken in the form of juice or capsules. Remember, when you choose acai supplements you’ll want to go with a solid form product. Freeze dried acai in capsule form offers the best benefits with no needed preservatives or additives, unlike the juice form. With solid form products you avoid paying for ‘filler’ juices and because pills are readily portable, you never have to worry about missing your supplements.
