Although it is hard to pronounce and only found in the amazon rain forest, the juice of the acai berry is renowned as being the healthiest on the planet. The acai berry is very small and purple colored, resembling a blueberry or grape. It is now most commonly consumed as acai juice, which can be found at your local health food store or online.
Acai juice is the best way to get the health benefits from the acai berry. The acai berry is a concentrated source of a type of flavonoids that is known as anthocyanins. These anthocyanins are a phytochemical that is found in red wine. The French have the lowest occurrence of heart problems in the western world.
This is attributed to these anthocyanins that are in the red wine that they drink so heartily. The good part about acai juice, however, is there is no alcohol content and it gives you energy instead of make you tired like wine can.
Medicinal Properties Of Acai
Acai juice has shown to have many medicinal qualities. One of these amazing potential effects is treating fibrocystic disease of the breast and diabetic retinopathy.
The fatty acid proportion of the acai berry is very similar to olive oil which many explain the low occurrence of heart problems in the Mediterranean regions. Acai juice also possesses phytosterols.
These sterols are the parts of plant cell membranes that deliver many benefits to the human body and decreases blood plasma cholesterol. Sterols are currently being used to treat symptoms connected to BP.
Acai juice has been used for generations by the natives of Brazil and many researchers feel their longevity and strong immune systems are attributed to the Acai berry. Acai juice has 10 Times the antioxidant benefits of grapes and 2 times that of blueberries
