Is Acai Berry really the number one superfood?

Acai Berry has been used and distributed for a long time in south America. Now it has also become the number super food in the world and easily the most popular.

Acai has recently been called Superfood Number 1 by Dr. Nicholas Perricone, author of The Perricone Promise: Look Younger, Live Longer in Three Easy Steps. He has given acai this title because of the numerous outstanding health promoting properties inherent in the fruit.

TV networks has also been all over this products, notably Oprah. She has praised the health and weight loss benefits of this products to all of her audience.

Acai has also been reported to be packed with various nutrients, including vitamins, minerals and antioxidants by various magazines, most notably my People magazine.

But the main substance that differentiate acai berry from any other food is the sheer amount of antioxidants that it contains. Those same nutrients that have been proven to help reduces the damaging effect of free radicals.

Have you ever wonder why red wine is good for you. the answer is Anthocyanins. It is the same nutrient found in acai berry, but there are a lot more of it than in red grapes.

Actually Acai berry has more than thirty three times more anthocyanins than you will find in red wine. This is the main reason why acai berry is classified as a superfood.

In fact, one recent scientific research study highlights the far reaching scope of this phenomenal fruit. The study showed that acai was able to destroy cultured human cancer cells. Specifically, four out of six different chemical extracts made from acai fruit pulp triggered a self-destruct response in up to 86 percent of leukemia cells tested.

With modern science beginning to catch up in its understanding of the acai, we could be on the forefront of a major health promoting explosion. That is the main reason why more and more people are rushing to get their acai berry supplements.
