Our 100% pure Organic Freeze Dried Acai is the most potent form of Acai available. The freeze drying process is optimal to retain and preserve the nutrients in Acai due to its naturally high fat content. We take the skin and pulp of the acai berry and dry at -20 degrees C in a vacuum.
The Acai berry may be the number one SuperFood in the world. Acai is loaded
with antioxidants, omega 6 and omega 9 fatty acids which are rarely found in
fruit. The berries also contain an optimal combination of essential amino
acids, polyphenols and flavonoids as well as minerals such as iron, magnesium,
potassium, calcium and vitamins B1, B2, B3, C and E. This remarkably
nutritious berry found in the Amazon Rainforest has been gaining notoriety and
was recently even featured on the “Oprah Winfrey Show.”
The Acai Berry may be the world’s most powerful anti-aging food. It is one of
the highest rated foods on the ORAC scale (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity)
only rivaled by the Goji berry. The ORAC scale is a test developed by USDA
researchers out of Tufts University in Boston that measures the antioxidant
level in foods. Acai Berries possess an unmatched ability to absorb injurious,
free radicals that attack the body and contribute to the aging process and
disease. Today, our bodies are constantly being bombarded by free radicals from
the air we breathe, the water we drink, the pesticides on our fruits and
vegetables, the chemicals we clean with, the preservatives in our processed
food, and on and on. Eating foods high in antioxidants is one way we can help
our bodies combat these free radicals and the damage they cause.
Acai also contains the highest concentration of anthocyanins of any food.
Anthocyanins have been shown to restore mental function, concentration, memory,
mental clarity. They are also known for capillary health which in turn helps
with oxygen uptake, sexual performance, and the reduction of macular
degeneration (vision loss due to aging). Due to their ability to protect the
brain form free radical damage and their support of healthy, cellular tissue
growth, anthocyanins are reputed to be one of the most valuable anti-aging
antioxidants known.
The famous research regarding the "French Paradox" attributes anthocyanins as
being the antioxidant that protects the French from heart disease. The French
consume large amounts of coffee, nicotine, sugar, white flour and cheese and yet
they have a relatively low incidence of heart disease compared to their
neighbors in the UK and other European countries. The red wine grape, due to its
anthocyanins is what is believed to be responsible for the low incidence of
heart disease. The Acai berry has 30 times the anthocyanins levels of that of red wine.
Cancer, heart disease, diabetes are all known to be metabolic diseases
associated with aging. Supplying your body with quality anti-aging antioxidants
contained in whole foods like our Acai Berry Powder, along
with a healthy diet is your first and best line of prevention.
