Product Description:
* What is the acai berry
The acai berry is an inch-long reddish, purple fruit. It comes from the acai palm tree (Euterpe oleracea), which is native to Central and South America.
Research on the acai berry has focused on its possible antioxidant activity. Theoretically, that activity may help prevent diseases caused by oxidative stress such as heart disease and cancer.
* Acai what makes it so special
In its natural form the acai berry contains a whole host of nutritional components that make it appealing. These include:
The essential fatty acids Omega 3, 6 and 9. According the NHS, our body needs these good fats to help us stay healthy.
* Amino acids. These are often referred to as the 'building blocks of life' as they play a vital role in the makeup of protein, needed for the growth, repair and maintenance of all cells.
* Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, C and E are all naturally present in acai.
The minerals potassium, calcium, magnesium, copper and zinc are also present in the little purple berry.
* Is the acai berry healthy
Acai contains several substances called anthocyanins and flavonoids.
The word anthocyanin comes from two Greek words meaning “plant” and “blue.” Anthocyanins are responsible for the red, purple, and blue hues in many fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Foods that are richest in anthocyanins -- such as blueberries, red grapes, red wine, and acai -- are very strongly colored, ranging from deep purple to black.
Anthocyanins and flavonoids are powerful antioxidants that help defend the body against life's stressors. They also play a role in the body's cell protection system. Free radicals are harmful byproducts produced by the body. Eating a diet rich in antioxidants may interfere with aging and the disease process by neutralizing free radicals.
