Benefit of Acai Berry

Have you been hearing all the buzz about Acai (ah-sigh-ee). Acai is number one Dr. Perrisone’s (on Oprah) healthfoodlist of top ten superfoods. According to Oprah.com Acai berry comes from a special Amazon palm tree. The acai berry is harvested in the rainforests of Brazil and is said to taste like a blend of berries and chocolate. Acai possesses a tremendous combination of things that are good for your health – antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids.

The concentration of anitoxidants (which helps combat premature aging) is 10 times higher in acai than it is in red grapes. Additionally acai has 10 to 30 times the anthocyanins of red wine. Anthocyanins are defined as flavonoid pigments found in many varieties of vegetables and fruits. Theyre a good source of antioxidants.

Acai berry anthocyanins help protect the body against cancer cells. If cancer cells are found, the anthocyanins help to prevent them from spreading. If tumors appear, the anthocyanins try to destroy them. Anthocyanins can also help prevent memory loss. Medical research has shown that the anthocyanins within the acai berry have been successful in reducing the likelihood of premature memory loss. Acai berrys anthocyanins can also assist in preventing heart disease. I am sure you have heard consuming a glass of red wine a few times a week can help reduce your risk of heart disease. Acai berries can contain up to 30 times the level of anthocyanins found in red wine, therefore you get the benefit without having to consume alcohol.

Dr. Perrisone says “The fatty acid content in Acai resembles that of olive oil, and is rich in monounsaturated oleic acid. Oleic acid is important for a number of reasons. It helps omega-3 fish oils penetrate the cell membrane; together they help make cell membranes more supple. By keeping the cell membrane supple, all hormones, neurotransmitter and insulin receptors function more efficiently. This is particularly important because high insulin levels create an inflammatory state, and we know, inflammation causes aging.”

Acai berry has also been know to help with weight loss. Being overweight isn’t just unhealthy, it can be very dangerous. When you’re overweight you put tremendous stress on your body and become at risk for back, joint issues and many other health problems.

In addition to medical issues, being overweight often depletes energy and robs you of the ability to get things done during the day.
