What is Acai?
pronounced - (ah-sigh-eeh) Acai is a berry grown in the Brazilian Amazon rain forest in some of the richest soil on the planet and is considered to be one of nature's most complete and healthy foods. The acai berry is one of nature’s richest sources of antioxidants in the world  also known as anthocyanins—a type of bioflavonoid.
The Acai berry also contains amino acids, essential omegas, fibers, protein, enzymes, vitamin E, minerals (potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, manganese, zinc, and boron), phytosterols.
Just How Powerful Is This Berry?
The ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value of Acai Berry is higher than any other edible berry in the world! ORAC is a measurement of antioxidants in foods. The ORAC value of Acai Berries are 50 times more than mangoes, three times more than blueberries, and at least 10 times more than red wine grapes. Making it the most nutritious food ever.
The higher the antioxidant level, the better health we can obtain, and the better your body can fight the aging process. Fresh Acai berries have the highest ORAC value of any edible item we know of on Earth, gram per gram.

Acai Roots ™ is simply the best 100% natural Acai available anywhere, made with wildcrafted acai berries.

Not all Acai products are created equal. There are many companies selling Acai products that do not produce a high quality end product. Once the acai berry is harvested it must be freeze dried immediately in order to preserve their nutrients. At Acai Roots ™ the pulp is extractred within 24 hours of harvesting, assuring that the highest quality Acai products are created. Some companies delay this process to save money, and they lose essential nutrients in the process.

"A University of Florida study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry on Jan 12. 2006 found that Acai berries triggered a self-destruct response in up to 86 percent of leukemia cells tested in vitro. In the current UF study, six different chemical extracts were made from ACAI fruit pulp, and each extract was prepared in seven concentrations. Four of the extracts, were shown to kill significant numbers of leukemia cells when applied for 24 hours. Depending on the extract and concentration, anywhere from about 35 percent to 86 percent of the cells died."
Assistant Professor Stephen Talcott says “This was only a cell-culture model and we don’t want to give anyone false hope. We are encouraged by the findings, however. Compounds that show good activity against cancer cells in a model system are most likely to have beneficial effects in our bodies.” The University will now study the effect of acai antioxidants on healthy human subjects. |

Is the Acai Berry available in berry form?
No, Actually the majority of the fruit is seed (95%), and only the skin around the seed is utilized to make the acai juice or pulp.
Are there any side effects to taking Acai Products?
We often get emails asking if there are any side effects from acai berry. People taking medication for problems such as high blood pressure are especially paranoid (and rightfully so) about mixing their medication with anything.
It's Kind of like asking if there are side efects to eating an orange, the acai berry is a natural fruit and completely safe.Acai berry pulp, acai berry juice, and quality acai supplements, will be completely free of any negative side effects.
Is freeze dried Acai powder really as good as fresh Acai?
Acai tastes so good - if we lived in the Amazon we would probably eat it fresh just to enjoy the taste. However, from a nutrition stand point the freeze dried Acai powder maintains the same nutrition profile as fresh Acai. In fact, because freeze dried Acai removes the water from the Acai - ounce for ounce freeze dried Acai has a much higher concentration of nutrients than fresh Acai
