The Acai Berry

A True Superfood?

Dr. Perricone named the Acai berry as the #1 Superfood in the world. The Acai fruit has been featured on Oprah, The Today Show, The CBS Early Show, in the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. Amazingly, the little Acai berry - about the size of a blueberry - is being called by many the miracle berry. On this site we do not make outrageous claims about how Acai is the cure for everything that ails people. What we will say is that the Acai Berry may be one of the healthiest foods on the planet. But before you get too excited and try to run down to your local fruit store to buy the Acai superfruit - we have some bad news. Acai only grows in the Amazon Rainforest and is very perishable. So, unless you live in the Amazon - you will not be able to find fresh Acai at your local store.

Here is the good news - Acai can be freeze dried and turned into a powder which has all the nutritional power of fresh Acai. Now the bad news - the vast majority of Acai powders on the market are not legitimate and have very LOW antioxidant effects. Confused? So were we, so we started doing some more research. After months of hunting - we learned a great deal about the Acai Berry. So let me encourage you to grab a cup of coffee, sit back and let's start from the top...
