A superfood is defined as any natural food that has an extraordinarily high nutrient content, and the acai berry certainly delivers. It contains healthy fats, iron, amino acids, and, most importantly, a remarkable amount of free radical fighting antioxidants.

These powerful antioxidants are the main reason for all the hoopla about the acai berry, and they are behind many of the more well known benefits of acai. Some of which include: More powerful immune system, increased energy and stamina, reduced pain and soreness, increased disease resistance, improved vision and more.

But there are three other benefits that aren’t as well known, but much more exciting. Let’s take a look…

The Acai Berry Increases Libido

Fascinatingly enough, the acai berry is commonly referred to in Brazil as “Amazon Rainforest Viagra. Some doctors even recommend the acai berry to couples who are having difficulty getting pregnant.

Why is acai revered so much for increasing libido? Well, besides hundreds of years of “hands on testing”, Brazilian natives point to its powerful ability to increase energy and stamina. And, although it hasn’t been proven by science, they also insist that there’s something else in it that naturally boosts the sex drive.

Acai Berry Controls Weight Gain


Combined with proper diet and exercise, the acai berry can be an brilliant weight loss aid. It has a natural combination of antioxidants, essential fatty acids, amino acids, phytosterols, and amino acids that work together to help your body function better, process food simpler, and burn stout more efficiently.

It’s also a near perfect fuel for the body and, as such, increases energy and stamina allowing you to work out harder and for longer periods of time. In fact, Jiu-jitsu practitioners and soccer players in Brazil often have a large meal of acai berry pulp before a competition. If it works for them, imagine how well it will keep you going on a treadmill.

Acai Berry Fights Cancer


If you have any doubts about the power of the antioxidants in the acai berry, they’re about to be gone forever.

The University of Florida published a study in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry that found that the acai berry triggered a self destruct response in up to 86% of human cancer cells. Yes, you read that right. The acai berry really killed cancer cells in laboratory tests!

Of course there’s a lot of research to be done before anyone can say if the acai berry is a cure for cancer, but the study was certainly an eye opener to the incredible healing abilities of the acai berry. Hopefully, with the recent surge of interest in the acai berry, more and more exciting benefits will be found.

How can acai puree change your life?

It squelches your appetite
Persistent craving for stout- and sugar-rich snacks is the largest challenge for those trying to lose weight. Fiber and protein in the acai berry sends messages to your brain, making it believe you’re not yet hungry.

It burns your extra calories
By drinking acai puree, your metabolism works hard even when you’re just sitting around in your office. Accompany that with regular exercise and you get to burn more calories.

It breaks down food quicker
Acai keeps your digestive system in tip-top shape, effectively grinding food and eliminating toxins that cause diarrhea and other stomach or intestinal disorders. Because acai puree helps wash down the food you just ate, it doesn’t build up as stout in your system.

It jolts you with a boost of energy
Feeling sluggish? A bottle of acai puree in the morning gives you a jolt of energy more than several cups of coffee can, without the negative side effects of caffeine. Acai will keep you on your toes the entire day, leaving you with enough energy to run those treadmills after work.

It drops your cholesterol levels
Acai berries do not contain trans or saturated stout. And with high anthocyanin content, acai protects you from atherosclerosis or coronary heart disease.

Although you can’t consume acai berries fresh unless you live in Brazil, advanced technology has found a way to bring you all the acai goodness and health benefits via acai puree juices.

The benefit that Acai is most known for is its antioxidant content. Tests have shown that Acai tops the list Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity (ORAC) Assay, which is a test for determining the antioxidant activity of a food. Doctors say that you should get at least 1600 ORAC everyday and Acai contains more than double that, scoring a 3870.

What does all this technical mumbo jumbo mean? Well, it means that taking Acai can help prevent cancer, lowers your risk for heart disease, and keep you feeling and looking younger. Not too terrible for a small berry?

Taking Acai can also provide a significant energy boost that rivals coffee. Many people report that the boost in energy lasts longer and is stronger than that of caffeine. Acai is also a fantastic source of Omega 3, 6, and 9 which help lower cholesterol, increase circulation, strengthen your memory, and improve your mood.

With all of these health benefits it’s simple to see why so many people are jumping on the Acai bandwagon. Acai can provide numerous benefits whether you are young or ancient, healthy or sick, or just looking for a boost in energy

The Acai fruit does not hold up well to transport, so you will probably never see it available in the produce aisle. That means in order to obtain the incredible health benefits of Acai you must buy it as Acai juice, Acai powder, or in Acai capsules. If you delight in the taste of Acai (it tastes like a mixture of berries and chocolate) the juice is fantastic, but Acai capsules are also a excellent option for those of us who are in a rush.
