2 Acai Berry Health Benefits You Shouldn’t Miss – Discover the “No-Hype” Truth About Acai & Health

December 27th, 2009 by admin

Who else is interested in learning more about the health benefits of acai berry? If you are like me….the truth is, you’re probably interested in ANYTHING that has to do with alternative wellness, health, healing and simply living your best and most authentic purpose. And if you’ve been watching the news over the past few years, you’d have to be blind to miss the veritable cacophony of content on acai berry….the Amazonian super fruit that has taken off like a rocket in Western alternative health circles.

But how many of the beautiful benefits this little berry promises are REAL…and how much is simply hype? The truth is, unfortunately, whenever ANYTHING makes as big of a splash as acai has…the manipulative marketers come out of the woodwork, and end up destroying and casting DOUBT on some of the AMAZING (and authentic) benefits that are to be had.

The truth is that acai has just about the highest concentration of important anti-oxidants of any fruit in the world. From an ORAC standpoint (the metric of measurement most often cited) acai exceeds (often exponentially) some of the most commonly accepted super fruits in the world.

Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, cherries, pomegranates and more are dwarfed by the values that acai offers….and this remains widely without dispute. Want the truth? According to some experts, acai has 30 times the anthocyanins (powerful phyto-chemicals) found in red wine and olive oil, and have NONE of the harmful side effects that overindulgence in the latter can bring. (as too much alcohol, or calories can KILL you, rather than cure!)

One of the most amazing aspects of the benefits of acai is the cutting edge research being done with anthocyanins and a whole host of age (and heart) related diseases. While these powerful anti-oxidants are already proven to be beneficial for all sorts of heart related preventative medicine, (helping with circulation, cardiovascular health and preventing the hardening of arteries) more recent studies ALSO show they may be responsible for preventing some forms of cancer on a molecular level…which is very exciting to say the least!

The Bottom Line?

Much of the ant-aging and fountain of youth movements seem to believe that these sort of anti-oxidants WILL be the key to reversing many common diseases, and the fact is, acai is BOUNTIFUL in both of them!
