Benefits of the Acai Berry

The a�a� berry is an antioxidant which has been shown to reduce the prevention of heart and vascular disease. It has been used as an antibacterial mix in Brazil. Because acai is one of the richest sources of antioxidants, dietary supplements or other products made with the berries are being widely promoted.

The Acai berry contains the most highly concentrated forms of anthocyanins, which are antioxidants. The anthocyanin content in the acai is higher than a glass of red wine, and since wine made from grapes has very high levels of the antioxidant anthocyanins, the polyphenols in red wine are believed to diminish the effects of a fatty diet and smoking. Therefore, the properties in acai may help improve eyesight.

Antioxidants are known to fight and regulate cholesterol levels in the body. The acai berry plays a large role in maintaining the cardiovascular system, which is important for better blood circulation. Acai is widely used as a powder extract, which is more powerful than in another form. In addition, acai can be found in supplements such as resveracine, which has now become a popular supplement for those who wish to lower their cholesterol and improve their cardiovascular health. There is approximately 630 mg of acai in resveracine, and has helped in ridding the body of free radicals, and improve cell growth. While antioxidants are derived from natural substances to help fight the damaging effects of free radicals in the body, the acai berry can help boost your body's immune system and defend against free radical damage.
