Açaí (ah-sigh-ee) is the high-energy berry of a special Amazon palm tree. Harvested in the rainforests of Brazil, açaí tastes like a vibrant blend of berries and chocolate. Hidden within its royal purple pigment is the magic that makes it nature's perfect energy fruit. Açaí is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Although açaí may not be available in your local supermarket, you can find it in several health food and gourmet stores (often in juice form). A new product featuring the unsweetened pulp is now also available, and I highly recommend that you choose this form of açaí. The fatty acid content in açaí resembles that of olive oil, and is rich in monounsaturated oleic acid. Oleic acid is important for a number of reasons. It helps omega-3 fish oils penetrate the cell membrane; together they help make cell membranes more supple. By keeping the cell membrane supple, all hormones, neurotransmitter and insulin receptors function more efficiently. This is particularly important because high insulin levels create an inflammatory state, and we know, inflammation causes aging.
Acai is a very bitter tasting fruit. PURE acai berry fruit juice tastes quite bad in fact. It is dark purple in color and has beads of oil that float on top. The best deal I have found on pure acai juice is at costco. $18 for a 32 ounce bottle. Their are may Acai juice blends that taste excellent like Monavie, Xocai, Amigo Juice (comes as a powder). But they are marketed primarily my mulit level marketing companys and ridicilously expensive (approximately $40 for 25 ounce bottle). But they barely contain any Acai. Most contain a blend of acai and 10+ other fruit juices.
I prefer taking my Acai in capsule form. My favorite product containing a high quality brazilian Acai is Lipovox. Lipovox contains Dr. Perricnones 10 Healthiest AntiAging SuperFoods. Lipovox contains a BIG dose of Acai and you can really feel the health benefits when you take it. Lipovox is a great Weight Loss, Detox, Wrinkle, and Acne treatment. It retails for $69 per bottle but you can find it on eBay for $25-$32 depending on the quantity you order.
If you want pure Acai juice I recommend Costco or Orovo Juice. If you want Acai in capsule form go with Lipovox on ebay. Its a great acne treatment as well
