The following is Part I a handy, two-part encapsulation of nutritional Acai berry information in a nutshell.

Acai Berries are full of:
• antioxidants
• essential fatty acids.
• amino acids

This article, Part I, will focus on the properties of the antioxidants and essential fatty acids in Acai berries. The second article, Part II of Acai Berry Information, will focus on the properties of their amino acids and other ingredients.

Antioxidants

The pulp of the Acai Berry contains:
• Twice the antioxidants in blueberries
• 10 times the antioxidants in red grapes
• 10-30 more anthocyanins than red wine

The effects of these antioxidants in the Acai berry include combating premature aging and fighting free radicals.

Essential Fatty Acids

There is a high concentration of numerous essential fatty acids in Acai berries responsible for lowering “bad cholesterol” (LDL) and maintaining healthy levels of “good cholesterol” (HDL). The combination of essential fatty acids in the Acai berry resemble the essential fatty acid content of olive oil.

The essential fatty acids in the Acai berry, along with the dietary fiber and phytosterols, promote healthy cardiovascular and digestive function. They also help develop strong cells and a healthy nervous system.

The monounsaturated fats in the Acai berry include omega-3 fatty acids (aka fish oils, aka healthy fats) and oleic acid which helps the cell membranes absorb those omega-3 fatty acids, together making those cell membranes suppler and thereby improving:
• insulin receptor function
• neurotransmitter function
• hormone function.

They also help lower risk of heart disease.

The insulin support is of particular worth to many people for its ability to reduce inflammation thereby slowing the aging process.

Now that you know about the antioxidants and essential fatty acids in Acai berries, go on to Part II of Nutritional Acai Berry Information in a Nutshell and learn about its amino acids and other ingredients.

Acai Berries are packed with:
•    antioxidants
•    essential fatty acids.
•    amino acids

This article, Part II, will concentrate on the properties of the amino acids and other ingredients in acai berries. The previous article, Part I of Acai Berry Information, concentrated on the properties of their antioxidants and essential fatty acids.

Amino Acids

The complex of essential amino acids in the acai berry is near-perfection, working in synergy with vital trace minerals to support proper muscle contracting and regenerating, as well as sustained energy, strength, endurance, and muscle development.

The phytosterols in the acai berry, along with the monounsaturated fats and dietary fiber, promote healthy digestive and cardiovascular function. Plant sterols are currently being used in the treatment of certain prostate-related conditions.

They also help control cholesterol levels and are precursors to the body’s production of many other needed substances.

Other Ingredients

Additionally, the acai berry contains theobromine – an alkaloid known to dilate bronchial passages to the lungs, increasing oxygen intake and improve strength, endurance, and general overall athletic performance, as well as:

•    iron
•    organic vegetable protein
•    carbohydrates
•    vitamins B1 and B2
•    vitamin E
•    other vitamins and minerals
•    trace minerals: calcium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, niacin, phosphorous, and manganese
•    electrolytes
•    and a low glycemic index

With this information in hand, it becomes easier to see why acai berries have garnered such a popular reputation as a superfood.
