Açai, which is also known as the tree of life, has the ability to support healthy cellular functioning and tissue growth. The anthocyanin content of the Açai berry is particularly notable. Anthocyanins are a potent anti-oxidant found in many fruits and vegetables; Açai is particularly rich in this phytonutrient. For example, the Açai berry contains 10 times as much anthocyanin as cherries.
Açai berry oil is also used in cosmetics and food products. The phenols in the oil help protect the skin against the damage of free-radicals, nourish connective tissues such as collagen, and may reduce the stresses of aging on the skin.
Acai is a popular ingredient of many functional foods and beverages from cereal and granola bars to pet food. It makes sense to include Açai in your functional food as a recent Mintel report predicted that consumers are more likely to try products with açai, goji, and noni berry. AcaiVida™ is designed especially to meet the requirements of many formulas for highly water soluble Acai powder with less carrier content and no filler added.
