Frequently Asked Questions About Acai Fruit Juice

By Mark Walters

Have you heard about the latest must-have food for your diet? Acai fruit juice of course! Are you interested in finding out more about the incredible health benefits of Acai juice? If so, you read on...

What exactly are Acai berries? Acai fruit juice is made from Acai berries, which can be found on particular, rare palm trees in the Americas. The berries, which are from the same family as other dark berries, such as cranberries and blackberries, are dark purple in color and around 1cm in length.

Is Acai fruit juice as healty as people say it is? Simply put - yes! Lots of research and many reports have come to that same conclusion. It has been established that Acai fruit juice contains powerful anti-oxidizing properties, which help fight against various diseases and health problems.

What makes Acai berries so healthy? The reason that Acai berries are so much healthier than other types of fruits is because they contain two of the world's best anti-oxidants - Anthocyanins and Flavonoids. In fact, Acai berries don't just contain them, they are absolutely jam-packed with them! These two ingredients specifically target and remove the harmful toxins that build up in your body that cause diseases to develop..

What are the recorded health benefits of Acai fruit juice? Recent studies have shown that Acai fruit juice is super high in anti-oxidants and contains more antioxidants that direct relatives such as cran-, ras-, black-, and blueberries. It is however essential to note that these studies are still ongoing.

Is there a link between weight loss and Acai berries? As mentioned previously, studies are still being conducted on Acai berries, and no-one yet knows for sure the connection between Acai berries and weight loss. Although acai fruit is mentioned as an ingredient in some weight loss products, there are very few studies that have yet proven Acai berries to be an effective weight loss promoter. However, there's no doubting the fact that berries and specifically acai fruit juice is a must for any healthy diet to prompt weight loss.

Why do some beauty products contain Acai? Again, this can be attributed to the fact that Acai is considered to contain potent anti-oxidants. Acai oil is a great alternative to other tropical oils normally used in beauty products including facial and body creams, shampoos and conditioners. Even after processing and extended periods of storage time the level of antioxidants in the oil still remains high.

What are the side-effects of Acai fruit juice? As a fruit and a natural product, the vast majority of people will experience no side effects whatsoever to using Acai fruit juice. A small minority of people do have allergies to berry or pollen products though, so, if you have had bad reactions with other types of berries, then it is best to avoid Acai berries too. - 14130
