The Acai Berry Natural Energizer

By Carter Sinclair

Studies have shown how poorly nourished people are. It has lead to an explosion in the health and food industry. The Acai berry stands at the top of the ladder when it comes to the most healthy foods.

The Acai berry is small, approximately one inch in diameter, though over eighty percent of this berry is made up of a seed. The berries are either purple, this is the most well known, or they are green. While the seed does not have nutritional value for humans it is the perfect addition to top soil or even livestock feed.

The ORAC lists Acai berry as one of the highest foods on their chart. That is the reason why the fruit is so sought after. It is the skin and pulp that offer this nutritional value. It is sold as various items such as yogurts, juices, ice cream, and can be dried or frozen.

Studies about the Acai berry are showing that the fruit contains high levels of nutrients and amino acids and fatty acids. It also scored a 1000 on the ORAC assay which measures a fruits ability to fight off harmful free radicals. The ORAC simply measures the fruits antioxidant levels.

Having an energy drink with Acai berries in it works to provide the body with even more energy than a cup of coffee and it has nutritional value that coffee does not have, making it possible for the energy to be longer lasting than you get from coffee or even from carbohydrate and sugar laced food.

The Acai berry is so versatile in that it tastes great in a number of different diet choices. It is a great addition to many different types of foods and has a taste that is a mix between chocolate and semi sweet berries. - 17274
