What is Acai Berry?
Everyone’s seen the word, maybe heard it on the television, radio, and even on billboards. The acai berry and the diet associated with it. But what is it exactly and why is there a huge fuss about it?
First of all, the acai berry has been used for many generations by native Brazilians. It is a small round berry usually blackish purple in color, resembling a grape or blueberry but smaller. It has a large seed with minimal pulp and provides maximum juice. It’s found in some palm trees that can reach heights of 82 feet in the Amazon rainforest and that is where it is largely grown and harvested. Unlike cherries and most other fruit however, it grows in bunches, much like bananas, instead of individually. Each tree, on average, can yield anywhere from three to eight bunches of acai berries.
What’s so great about this small berry and why has it become a huge name in the diet industry? The Acai berry has been labeled as an antioxidant. It’s rich in omega fats, protein, electrolytes, amino acids, antioxidants, and vitamins A, E and B1. It’s been known for the health benefits it provides including management of digestive problems, insomnia, skin issues and even sexual dysfunction. Especially as word travels about this amazing berry and its benefits, people are discovering new and exciting ways it has helped them in daily life. Consuming it has made people simply feel more energized and healthy. Not only that, but researchers have even revealed that in a study, Acai berries actually destroyed leukemia cells in a culture. It still remains to be seen that the Acai berry will destroy cancer altogether, but the studies so far have been promising.
Not only has the Acai berry become famous all over the world for ground breaking new researches, but it’s also great tasting. It has been incorporated into so many dishes since it’s discovery that it’s common knowledge to see it on menus in most places. Used as both the sweet berry it is on top of ice cream, in smoothies, shakes and even breakfast bars, it is also used as a great additional flavor in meat and fish dishes, along with various other entrees. However, the fact that most people find so surprising is that the berry itself should not be picked and eaten just as it is. The berry is harvested, processed and the acai comes from the pulp of the berry. Even more surprising to some people is the fact that the acai drinks and juice is more popular in the southern hemisphere than milk. This is due largely to the fact that the South Americans know they’re getting a healthy, nutritious drink that will give them energy and alertness throughout the day. One of the best benefits about this berry is the fact that there are no known or reported side effects. It hasn’t been completely examined and being a relatively new product in the United States it is still being observed. But most reports back are that this is a very promising good.
Acai is available in all different forms all across the globe. The internet has become a fast hot spot to purchase the popular berry and it’s many varieties. It is in extremely high demand as more and more people become aware of the benefits, but when shopping for it, you must be sure that you’re getting the real thing. Labels are very important and make absolutely sure to check them.

Thank you for your comment. Although, I’m not sure what did you mean by “not truly convinced”, as I see, you offer one of the acai extract products yourself.

With Cambogia and Silvestre extracts that have great antioxidants, and containing inherent anthocyanins of Acai berries, Acai burn works magic in the slimming field. It is sold in pill form and is advised to take twice daily with lots of water. The pill is best taken a couple of hours before sleep and a half hour before lunch and diner. This allows it to activate the digestive tract before we take food.
