Açaí berry

Although promoted commercially for years as a nutritionally dense food, the deep purple açaí berry has only recently gained compelling scientific validation. 

Every cell in the human body withstands an estimated 10,000 individual strikes by free radicals each day, a leading factor in aging and degenerative disease onset.

Anti-aging benefits of açaí berry

  • Antioxidants in açaí extract can enter human cells in a fully functional form
  • Freeze dried açaí berry extract helps effectively neutralize free radicals
  • May be extraordinarily effective against the most damaging reactive oxygen species
  • Açaí can serve as a frontline defense against multiple diseases of aging

Discovered in a recent clinical study, a blend of complete açaí polyphenols could increase antioxidant capacity three-fold in the blood of healthy human volunteers. 

Antioxidants found specifically in freeze-dried açaí extract have been shown to enter human cells in a fully functional form and effectively neutralize free radicals at very low doses. 

Scientific research suggests that together with similarly pigmented foods rich in anthocyanins (blueberries, black currant, and raspberries), açaí may serve as a frontline defense against multiple diseases of aging.
