The Health Benefits of the Acai Berry

By Chris Dreyer

In South America there is a fruit that grows deep in the Amazons called the acai berry. It is red/purplish and has been used as a healing tonic by the natives from the area. When the acai fruit was introduced to the United States it very quickly became one of the most popular health foods. Acai berry has been used in health drinks, as an energy enhancer, weight loss supplements, and a lot more products.

Nicholas Perricone came on the Oprah show discussing the benefits of acai berry. He talked about the fruit as an antioxidant. It contains one of the highest antioxidants of all the fruits you can ingest. It has double the amount of antioxidants in blueberries and contains as much as ten times the count as grapes contain.

While still being studied, the acai berry is believed to increase energy, improve stamina, and improve mental focus. It also helps improve sleep, which will in turn contribute to increased energy.

Acai berry has been shown to improve the quality of life and your life expectancy. It does so by the high amounts of antioxidants it contains. Antioxidants help to improve cholesterol. High cholesterol is what causes heart disease. So by ingesting acai berry you are preventing yourself from heart disease. These antioxidants can be a leading cause of a healthier heart.

Another important role antioxidants play is in the maintenance of blood circulation. It also affects heart health, since the heart works to pump the blood. Heart health and blood circulation aren't the only things that the acai berry aids. People suffering with digestive complaints have also found relief with the acai berry. This is believed to be due to the high fiber content.

The cure for cancer has been sought after for man years. Surprisingly, researchers found that the antioxidants in acai berries can treat and destroy cancer cells.

The high antioxidant content in this fruit will help whatever is ailing you in some way or another. The secret that many natives knew before is finally here in the states to help people live healthier, longer lasting lives. - 17268
