The Acai Berry is more than a rich source of antioxidants. Acai berries contain high levels of anthocyanins. These protect foods from harmful free radicals that develop as a result of exposure to UV light and the process of metabolism. Anthocyanins not only help to conserve antioxidant levels in foods, but they continue to do this in the body after they are eaten. The benefits of drinking a daily glass of red wine for its anthocyanin content are put in the shade by the amazing Acai berry, which actually contains anything from 10 to 30 times more anthocyanins.

But that’s not all…

• Acai berries are rich in amino acids and protein.
• The Acai berry contains 19 different amino acids. These help with the growth, repair, and maintenance of body tissues. As your body can only supply 11 of these, the rest have to come from your diet.
• Acai berries contain vitamins B1, B2, B3, C and E, supplying just as much vitamin C as blueberries.
  And for every 100 grams of Acai, you’re benefitting from more than 1000 IU of Vitamin A.
• Acai also contains essential minerals: potassium, calcium, copper, magnesium, and zinc.
• Acai berries are especially rich in omega fats, providing a healthy quantity of unsaturated fats, including Omega-3, Omega-6, and Omega-9.
• Acai berries contain three different plant sterols - B-sitosterol, campesterol and sigmasterol. These help to keep your heart healthy, as well as assisting digestive function.

And last, but not least…

Every 100 grams of Acai berries contains nearly 45 grams of fibre to speed digestive transit and keep your system working smoothly.

We think the Acai is one Super Berry!
