Pomegranate Blueberry and Acai Berry Juice

By Pete Roberts

Wholesome acai products come in many forms. You can usually get these acai berry products in capsules, or powder forms. The most common form is acai puree. Acai berry products are one of natures outstanding supplements to hit the market in the last couple years.

Acai berry tastes comparable to blueberry's with a touch of chocolate or cinnamon. The powder normally combines with yoghurt or smoothies. Acai powder or puree mixes well with other juices like grape, pomegranate or blueberry and you may even be using it for an acai berry diet.

Acai berries has one of the highest ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity). This is a measure of antioxidant capacity of supplements or foods. Acai is higher than blueberries and pomegranates. Pure acai products should contain no fillers of course some will add organic sugar and boast a 100% organic product. Your acai product may have added refined sugars or fillers. Guarana is a sugar, stimulant and is sometimes utilized as a filler in acai products so that is something else to consider on the label.

Acai contains fiber, protein vitamins A and C and potassium. The other surprising property acai berry has it it also has essential fatty acids Omegas 3, 6 and 9 these good fats are essential for the overall wellness of our body. Acai products such as juice, powder or capsules are one of the highest antioxidants that also have omegas 3, 6 and 9 which is quite remarkable for a berry product.

If you are reviewing pure acai products or if you are on an acai diet look at products that do not incorporate sugar. If you are diabetic or need to eliminate sugar due to health issues you need pure acai berry products not ones that are loaded with sugar or fillers. You need a product that is kosher and certified Brazilian acai berry and it should be processed and refined at the source. Your finest acai products will be pure 100% organic and processed in a USDA certified facility.
