Description

The Açai (ah-sigh-EE) berry is quickly taking over other fruits as the new superfood of choice. Açai berry is the fruit from a special palm tree that grows in the Amazon River rainforest and tastes like a cross between blueberries and chocolate. Acai is considered to be one of the most powerful and nutritious superfoods on the planet and packs more than 10 times the antioxidant properties of red grapes and twice that of blueberries. This powerful little berry packs a punch to dis-ease offering essential minerals such as iron, potassium, phosphorus and calcium, Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin C, and Vitamin E (Tocopherol). Studies on açai have also discovered that it strengthens the immune system, fights infection, protects the heart, and can control prostate enlargement.

Antioxidants anyone? With just one 3g teaspoon per day of our pure organic Açai freeze dried powder you are getting 2601 orac units! Orac is the antioxidant anthocyanin necessary to rid our body of free radical toxins. The daily recommended orac intake to destroy free radicals and flush toxins is 2400.

How do you know if you're buying the real thing? Pure açai juice will be very thick, pulpy and very oily from the natural Omegas 3, 6 and 9 of the fruit. Not all açai is equal. Much of the açai that comes to the U.S is very low in solids and also watered down and/or has a very low ORAC rating, which quantifies the antioxidants (anthocyanins) content.

There are many companies that add carriers even to freeze dried açai. But, how can you tell? Open the capsules -- the powder should be oily from the Omegas 3, 6 and 9. The powder should literally cling to your hand and it should taste as açai tastes -- blueberry-like with a hint of chocolate. Why do companies add these fillers? It is much more efficient for them and it makes the filling process much easier. Because of the oils in the açai it can be very messy to fill.
