Acai a new drink

Acai a new drink

A new health supplement surges through the media airwaves nearly every week. There’s one in particular that’s causing quite a stir: acai berry. Acai (pronounce ah-sigh-ee) is a fruit native to Central and South America that packs a mean antioxidant punch, 10 to 30 times that of red wine grapes. Most recently, acai made its way into many fruit juice blends and nutritional supplements sold in North American and around the world. The most potent form of acai is freeze-dried powder derived from the fruit’s skin and pulp. Research shows acai may boost immune function, deter aging, fight dangerous free radicals, and may serve as an anti-cancer supplement. To get the most from your acai supplementation, go with 1 g of freeze-dried acai powder taken twice daily. For an easy-to-use antioxidant blend that includes a healthy dose of freeze-dried acai, check out Biotest’s Superfood mix at Biotest.net.
