Post Does Acai have a nutritional value?

Acai Berry is Packed Full of Nutrients and has a higher concentration of antioxidants than any other fruit worldwide. Dr. Susanne Talcott, assistant professor with the Texas A&M University’s nutrition and food science department, found that acai antioxidants are absorbed in the human body.

Thus, Acai has twice the antioxidant level of blueberries, and approximately 10 times the concentration of grapes. Acai also includes Anthocyanins, one of the most potent forms of antioxidants. Anthocyanins have been proven to reduce inflammation, and aid the circulatory system. Acai berry has up to 30 times the Anathocyanins level of red wine.

Almost 10 percent of acai pulp weight stems from amino acids. Currently, there have been 19 amino acids discovered in the acai berry. Acai also contains extremely high levels of Omega fatty acids such as Oleic Acid and Linoleic Acid, and essential fatty acids. Almost 50 percent of the fruit is composed of fat, with a majority of the fat originating from unsaturated fats such as Omega 3, 5, and 9. Acai also contains more than 8 protein grams per 100 gram serving.

Acai berry contains numerous vitamins and minerals. Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, C, and E are all included in the acai berry. For every 100 gram serving of acai, there is 1000 IU of Vitamin A present. Essential minerals including calcium, potassium, magnesium, and zinc are also in acai berry.

I would rather suggest that who else wants to use this food supplements, do always buys from genuine stores or purchase from authentic online stores.
