If you have read any of the research on the acai berry (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) from the rainforests of Brazil, you have no doubt seen the numerous health-related claims ranging from weight loss to male impotence to anti-aging and an insomnia cure. However, the fact is that there is no specific scientific evidence that has proven the truth of these claims.
Still the fact remains that the tiny little acai berry is actually one of the healthiest foods ever found on planet Earth. It has one of the highest ORAC, or Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacities of any single food ever found on Earth. It is also loaded with other extremely significant nutritional components such as healthy Omega fats, fiber and a host of vitamins and minerals.
When you provide your body with advanced nutrition, it always responds in a positive manner. The Standard American Diet that is such a big part of our culture these days does not provide our bodies with the healthy nutrition that it craves and needs.
Our bodies are designed to run on premium fuel. This premium fuel is provided for us in the form of whole foods, straight from nature. Vegetables, fruits, lean proteins such as fish and eggs, and whole grains comprise the diet that helps our bodies to function at their optimum level.
The acai berry is a special and exotic fruit that does have the wealth of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, essential fatty acids and even 19 amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. This little fruit provides the advanced nutrition that our bodies need in a small and delicious little berry.
However, this little berry can only be grown in the rainforest of Brazil, and because it is highly perishable, it must be processed within 24 hours of leaving the tree. There are a few different processing methods, but it has been found that the best way to preserve the vital and important nutrients that are inherent in the berry is to use a freeze-dried processing method. This method maintains the natural goodness.
You can find acai berry products in a number of different forms, from juices to smoothie mixes, and even powders and capsules. If the product contains mostly acai berry and it was freeze-dried when it was processed, you can feel comfortable that you are getting the vital nutrients.
When you provide your body with the vital and important nutrients that it needs and craves, it responds in a positive way. By giving your body the nutrition that it needs, you can more easily lose weight, more easily overcome problems like as male impotence and you will sleep better. You can also prevent many of the expected declines of aging and prevent many of the most serious diseases that plague our society. Good nutrition does not necessarily need scientific evidence; it just makes common sense.
