Acai is the latest nutritional secret revealed to the modern world. Harvested from the Amazon rainforest, from palm trees, the acai berry has been used for centuries by indigenous tribes.
Recently, scientists have discovered that the very dark purple pigments in acai berries contain anthocyanidins, antioxidants that contribute to its very high ORAC value (free radical absorption capacity). ORAC is a new measure of antioxidant potential.
For years, blueberries were believed to have the highest ORAC value. We now know that acai berries have twice the ORAC value of blueberries. Therefore, acai can be considered the super berry for health!
