Left Behind

The benefits of acai berry supplements are quickly gaining a foothold in many households where people want the benefits of acai without the hassle of having to integrate acai purees or acai preserves into their diets. Maybe people don’t like the taste of acai but still want the benefits: this is where acai supplements play their role, too.

The acai is a wonderful little fruit — often referred to as a berry but actually a drupe — that grows on the top of the acai palm in the Brazilian rain forest The acai grows in large bunches of between 900 and 700 berries, and is harvested by the local population. The local population know the value of acai and eat tremendous amounts of it: up to 42% of their total food intake by weight consists of acai.

Acai has a high fat content — that’s mono unsaturated fat: ‘good fat’ — and this means that it degrades very quickly one it has been picked. Getting an acai berry out of Brazil intact is a challenge in itself. To counter this problem distributors make great products like acai berry supplements. Acai supplements have the benefits, and are not only easy to transport across the world, but are also incredibly convenient for those using them once they get there.

Improving your Overall Health
Trying to improve ones overall health can be hard when you spend most of your time on the road. I do outside for a living and i’m usually on the 6 hours a day. When you’re on the road trying to find healthy fast food can be a pain. I’ve turned to purchasing drinks that not only include pure acai berry, but other nutrients. I know that acai berries have the highest amount of antioxidants per berry than other fruit. It’s been listed as one of the #1 super food in the world. This is good news to me, because if you ask me, the taste is an extra bonus.
