The Acai berry is a well-kept secret of the Amazon.

A secret to the Western world, the acai berry has been grown in the Amazon for years. People in the Western world are just now beginning to realize just how much this berry maximizes health through its amazing antioxidant powers.

For those who haven't seen it, the acai berry, dark and purple in color, is enriched in a large number of healthy substances, including those with antioxidant power. This berry grows without cultivation atop palm trees which dominate the rain forests in the Amazon, especially in Brazil. The local people harvest the berries and use it to make a type of fruit pulp. This fruit pulp is flash-frozen in order to lock in its nutritional abilities.

The benefits of the acai berry

Researchers have found that the acai berries are filled with a specific type of antioxidant nutrient known as anthocyanins. In case you haven't studied it, these are the same substances that provide the red color to red wine. Like red wine, acai berries share the same healthy effects. Acai berries also are rich in fiber and protein along with the essential fatty acids, omega-6 and omega-9.

These are the primary reasons why so many health aficionados are starting to take a long look at the acai berry and why it's become so popular. Because it has the combination of fatty acids, antioxidants, fiber and protein, it is felt to be one of the perfect health foods by several experts.

If you are interested in the acai berry, there are places to buy them. The juice is also available. Many health food stores and retailers who specialize in whole foods have the berry available. Even some supermarkets will likely begin to sell the acai berry, especially as it gains in popularity. Some organic food stores are beginning to carry them.

If you like to surf the Internet, there are several internet sites that sell products created from the acai berry. Some of the best products include frozen juice made from the whole berry. The acai berry juice is probably one of the best and healthiest products made from this product. The juice retains many of the antioxidant and other substances found in the berry itself.

The details

At the organic food store or on the web, you need to find out who the best suppliers are and figure out how the acai berry is picked from the bush and stored at each supplier. All of these things can make a big difference in the nutrition you'll find in the berry or in the juice. Only the wild berry should be used as opposed to any cultivated variety. Remember also that the berry must be flash-frozen and that it must not remain on store shelves for a long time. Packaging definitely affects health benefits.

The good news is that terrific manufacturers of acai berries exist, including those that both pick and package the berry for maximum freshness using the original methods of harvesting invented by the Amazonian farmers. The local farmers have had the most experience with the acai berry and they know the proper methods of picking the berry, freezing it and putting it in packages. These farmers have done a great deal to promote the acai berry and are willing to share this information with the rest of us.
