Check Out The Beneficial Dietary Advantages Of Acai

By Marie B Turner

Recently there has been quite a bit of publicity on the acai berry, a miniature purple berry that hails from the rainforest in Brazil. This little berry has been marketed as a vastly beneficial food complement that can help you to lose weight and retain good physical condition by preventing disease and the tribulations of aging.

But even with all of these claims as of March 2009 there have not been any controlled human studies that back up these claims. However, even without the scientific studies to prove it, after you become alert of the specifics about this little berry your common sense will tell you that this tiny little dietary powerhouse of a fruit is a very healthy additive to your diet.

Promotion claims on the acai berry vary from better energy levels and better digestion to detoxification and improved sexual functioning. There are claims that it can increase your heart health, improve the appearance of your skin, decrease your cholesterol levels and it has often been marketed as a weight loss product.

The facts are that the acai berry is one of the most nourishing foods ever found on the earth. It boasts one of the highest antioxidant levels of any food as measured by the ORAC or Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. It has a healthful synergy of beneficial monounsaturated fats and Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids, and it has an nearly perfect essential amino acid complex, along with a wholesome dosage of fiber.

All of these healthy components can add to the claims being made. Fiber, essential fatty acids and antioxidants are a causative factor to healthful weight loss. Antioxidants are an important component for anti-aging and the prevention of disease. And it is common knowledge that good nutrition is a contributing factor to our all around superior health.

But, the acai berry is not a wonder food that has just lately been discovered that can make us all thin and healthy. This berry is just another in a long line of good for your health foods that can all be a factor to our excellent health.

Healthy foods are profuse in the environment. Blueberries, raspberries, cranberries, blackberries and more are other healthy berries. Spinach, broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower are very healthy. Pumpkin, tomatoes, oranges, grapefruit and sweet potatoes are healthy accompaniments to a healthy diet. All of these good for your health foods can be favorable to our physical condition and all of these foods can be a factor to the same health benefits that the acai berry has been acclaimed for.

The acai berry is a extremely nutritious food; in fact it is one of the healthiest of all. It has up to 10 times the antioxidant power of red grapes, twice the antioxidant power of blueberries. A nutritious diet is useful to our wellbeing so even without the controlled studies it makes sense that this naturally nutritious fruit can be beneficial to our health. Try the acai berry and see how it can benefit you. - 17274
