Acai (pronounced Ah-sigh-ee) – is an all natural energy fruit from the Amazon palm berries. Wild harvested in the rainforests of Brazil, Acai tastes like a blend of berries and chocolate. The real benefit of drinking beverages made with this fruit extends far beyond taste; Acai scores considerably high on the ORAC scale at 140 percent higher than blueberries, 691 percent higher than strawberries, and 915 percent higher than red wine.
Acai also contains amino acids and essential omega fatty acids the body can not produce. Acai has recently gone main stream and is currently outpacing consumption of milk in several U.S. cities. This fruit has been reported to help promote cardiovascular health and digestive tract health, as well as promote proper muscle contraction and regeneration.
