. It can often be found in

Acai (pronounced Ah-Sa-E) is an Amazon Super Berry.


This new berry is 100% all natural and it is harvested naturally from
depths of the rainforests of Brazil, by the people who have been using it for
over thousands of years. Acai is the only super berry on the market that has
everything that you need, naturally from only the berry itself. It packs
Vitamin B1, B2, B3, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Phosphorus, Calcium, Potassium,
Fiber, Proteins, beneficial fatty acids such as Omega 6, Omega 9 to helps you
fight your cholesterol problems and many, many more; there are just too many
to list.



As an added benefit, it gives you the highest
level of anti-oxidant on the market, with studies showing up to 33 times the
anti-oxidant as red wine grapes. With Acai it gives you the energy from your
youth and opens up the vitality and increased stamina you had in your 20's. So
try the new "Fountain of Youth" from this forbidden Amazon Berry and
you too will feel the power of the Amazon.


Research on Acai has shown that these Anti-Oxidants are known to fight and
regulate cholesterol levels in the body.


Acai has two essential fatty acids known as Omega 6 (Linoleic acid) and Omega
9 (Oleic acid). Research shows that Omega 6 helps lower LDL, which is the
harmful cholesterol. Then you have Omega 9 fatty acids which lower LDL and
maintain HDL (beneficial cholesterol) levels.


Acai's Anti-Oxidant factors play a large role in maintenance of the vascular
cardiac system, which is important for better blood circulation.


What is Acai Acai - Euterpe Oleracea (Arecaceae)?


The fruit is small, round and blackish purple, It looks like a grape, but
smaller and darker. It has a big seed and very little pulp. Acai is widely used
in energy drinks, ice cream, energy bars with granola.


In order to obtain a healthy Acai, the most important is the quickness in the
time between the harvest and the processing. The Acai is very rich in
antocianine, an antioxidation substance that helps to fight the cholesterol and
free radicals. Have you ever heard that a glass of red wine everyday is good for
the heart? This is because of the antocianine in the grape, It is not by
accident that the color of the Acai is similar to the color of red wine,
although the Acai has 33 times more anticianine than the grape. The antocianine
is also a strong natural coloring,


Besides being considered one of the
"Richest
foods in iron" the Acai is also rich In fibers which makes it strongly recommended for
the elderly and/or for people with problems in the digestive organs, For its microbiological characteristics the Acai Is considered one of the most nutritive fruits in the Amazon, preceded only by the chestnut of Pera.

Acai is considered new potential source of natural red coloring matter for
use. Nothing has been found in the composition of the Acai that would cause any
reaction when mixed with other foods.

In summary, the Acai is a caloric drink (due the high lipase tenor), with
high fiber tenor, anthocyanin and other micro-nutrients. Therefore, it can be
considered one of the most nutritional fruits from Amazon.

Each year, the agricultural food industry is researching sources of natural
Colorants, Among these, anthocyanines are of particular interest due to the
large range of colors that they have (orange, red, blue) and their very
important nutritional properties., in effect, anthocyanines are pigments
belonging to the flavonoid group and have very high antioxidant levels.

The quantification of anthocyanines in a product is generally done by quick
and less costly techniques such as direct or indirect spectrophotometer and the
use of a Minolta color meter. Please note that spectrophotometer can also give
qualitative facts on the type of anthocyanines presents.

The fruits of the Euterpe Oleracea are particularly rich in anthocyanines.
