So what is Acai Berry?
Acai Berry is a small, round, black-purple drupe about 1-inch (25 mm) in diameter, similar in appearance and size to a grape but with less pulp. It comes from the acai palm tree (Euterpe oleracea), which is native to Central and South America. It is a relative of the blueberry, cranberry, and other dark purple fruits.
The acaí berry has been marketed as a dietary supplement. Companies sell acaí berry products in the form of tablets, juice, smoothies, instant drink powders, and whole fruit.
Acai contains several substances called anthocyanins and flavonoids. Anthocyanins and flavonoids are powerful antioxidants that help defend the body against life's stressors. They also play a role in the body's cell protection system.
Free radicals are harmful byproducts produced by the body. Eating a diet rich in antioxidants may interfere with aging and the disease process by neutralizing free radicals.
Some studies show that acai fruit pulp has a very high antioxidant capacity with even more antioxidant content than cranberry, raspberry, blackberry, strawberry, or blueberry. People eat acai berries to address various health conditions.
Although acai is touted in some weight loss products, few studies have tested the benefit of acai in promoting weight loss. There’s no doubt that berries and other fruits are a key part of any healthy diet promoting weight loss.
