Açaí Berry is known to harness the following properties:
Antioxidant, Antibacterial, Anti-inflammatory, Antimutagenic, and aids the Cardiovascular System.
Açaí berries contain very high amounts of essential fatty acid & omegas proven to lower LDL while maintaining HDL cholesterol levels.
They are also a remarkable concentration of antioxidants to help combat premature aging. Açaí Berry is a dense source of a particular class of flavonoids called anthocyanins. The ORAC value of Açaí Berry is higher than any other edible berry in the world!
Açaí Berry is also an excellent source of dietary fiber!
Açaí is extremely rich on organic vegetable protein which does not generate cholesterol during its digestion and is easier processed and transported to your muscles than animal protein (such as in milk or meat).

Research studies suggest soluble fibers may help lower blood cholesterol The insoluble fiber may help to reduce the risk of developing certain types of cancers.
Essential amino acid complex along with trace minerals, which are vital for proper muscle contraction and regeneration. Aside from the energy and fluid replacement,
Açaí Berries provide a nutrition profile complete with vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids (omega 6 and 9). The fatty acid ratio in Açaí resembles that of olive oil. Studies suggest this is a contributing factor to the low incidence of heart disease in Mediterranean populations.

Omega Fatty Acids: (Omega 9 & Omega 6) These mono-saturated essential fatty acids help lower LDL (harmful cholesterol) while maintaining HDL (beneficial cholesterol). This unique ratio resembles the same combination as olive oil. Omega fatty acids combat heart disease by increasing healthy cell development. Omega fatty acids are essential for healthy nervous system development and regeneration. They help rapidly repair and rejuvenate muscles after intense exercise. The fatty acids & omegas contain 60% Oleic (omega 9) - a monounsaturated essential fatty acid which helps to lower LDL (harmful cholesterol), while maintaining HDL (beneficial cholesterol) and 12% Linoleic (omega 6) - a polyunsaturated essential fatty acid which has also been found to lower LDL, while maintaining HDL.
Amino Acids: The Açaí berry contains an almost perfect essential amino acid complex. This is vital for proper muscle contraction and regeneration, and for endurance, strength, sustained energy and muscle development.
Natural Vitamin E: to protect against aging.
Theobromine: acts as a bronchial dilator to help open air passage ways in the lungs. This increased air capacity helps in oxygen intake, which increases endurance, strength, and athletic performance.
