Acai Berry Review and Comparisons
- 0 Comments
In the media, Acai Berry pronounced (a-sigh-ee) has been getting a significant amount of attention. Acai Berry is native to Brazil found in the Amazon. Brazilians throughout history have used the acai berry to deal with skin and digestive diseases.
Acai studies have shown to contain significant levels of antioxidants. Most people hear antioxidants and associate it with being healthy but know nothing about an antioxidant. Antioxidants simply reduce damaging forms of oxygen called free radicals which can attack cells in our body and may contribute to diseases and aging. Use of antioxidants in studies, have had promising results in different diseases. Furthermore, the acai berry has been shown to contain many essential fatty acids such as linoleic acid. Linoleic acid aids in healthy hair and wound healing.
Acai Berry has also been marketed as a weight loss treatment. It is not a magic pill to weight loss but the benefit of Acai Berry is it may calibrate the body which helps the metabolism run more efficiently, the person feels better, and helps in reducing weight.
The University of Florida did a study which was published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry regarding acai berry and the study showed that acai extract destroyed leukemic cells. The acai berry extract killed from 35 to 86% of the leukemic cells. Be careful though acai berry is not an approved treatment or prevention of leukemia. There is still a lot of mystery surrounding the Acai Berry but the initial studies are very promising.
My team and I decided to test a sample of different Acai Berry products and we performed a blind study where it was hidden from the subjects which Acai Berry products were being administered during the one month duration. It would serve to diminish as much bias as possible.
We experimented with several products and found only three to be worthwhile with Acai Berry Supreme being the winner. The results of our study are available here on our website.
