3 Reasons Why You Need Acai in Your Life

Many so-called health nuts would consider Acai to be one of life's greatest pleasures. But then again, what about a cold, creamy and purply acai bowl topped with all sorts of delicious crunch, does not sound like perfection?

Acai are purple berries mainly found in the rainforests of Brazil. They are naturally high in healthy fats as well as low in sugar. After processed, they become a rich frozen pulp that you can use as base to make smoothies and acai bowls. Many health experts believe it to be a superfood, and here is why:

1. Acai is Loaded with Antioxidants

Antioxidants are known to be anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and so much more. Because acai is so rich in this very substance—containing 3 times more antioxidants than blueberries— it helps our body to heal as well and regenerate.

2. It Helps with Cholesterol Levels

A scientific study was conducted on 10 adults who were told to start consuming acai smoothies twice a day for a month. At the end of the month their exams showed a lower level of LDL (bad) cholesterol in their bodies.

3. It may have Anti-Cancer Properties

During animal testing as well as test-tube studies, scientists found that acai reduced incidences of 2 types of cancer in mice, proving itself to be a potential anti-cancer agent.

Final Notes

As long as it is pasteurized, acai is 100 percent safe to eat. For the best acai experience, we advise you buy " Premium " or " Grade A " acai. This will ensure its creaminess and potency in terms of health benefits, as well as taste. So whether you make acai at home or buy it in shops, we hope you love it!
