    ACAI BERRY: THE ANTI-AGING TOUCHSTONE

    The constant endeavor of man to fight out time was apparent right from the time of Admetus of the Alcestis-myth who, blessed by Apollo, had prolonged his life to remain young forever, provided someone else (which turned out to be Alcestis, his wife) could die for him. The reason I cite this as an example is pretty clear: no one wants to age quickly. And there is yet more to it-most people will tell you that they would better try not to look old, even if they have to spend much money on it. Hence, the rising demand for anti-aging products in the market, the most effective among them being those made from acai-berry.



    Most products in the market may claim to achieve this and that; and they might actually try to prove their worth through graphic demonstration in their advertisements too. But the fact remains that very few of them can achieve what they profess to do and even if they do succeed, their accomplishments fall far short of their claims.

    The acai berry is a fruit of the acai palm tree, found as part of the natural vegetation of the swamps and floodplains of tropical Central America. It serves as a very efficient agent in anti-aging and many anti-aging products are made out of it.
    The additional advantage of products made from these berries is their minimal side effects. This natural remedy has long been used by the natives of the land where the berries originate, but it has attracted the attention of marketers only recently with its astonishing effects.

    The intensity of the anti-aging quality possessed by these berries is simply amazing. Compared to the ordinary grape, for instance, they are found to have 10 times more anti-oxidants. These are natural elements which fight out radicals in or body. Radicals are stuff that can lead to severe diseases like diabetes, arthritis and heart problems and they are the result of pollution, smoke and accumulation of carbon compounds. They fasten the aging process in our bodied and can lead to a aged appearance even at a tender age.

    Research has conclusively proven beyond doubt that products made from the acai berry can combat aging a lot better than any other product of its kind, stopping skin deterioration. Acai berries have greater store of vitamins, mineral and fibrous content. The richness of these berries against any other food in terms of nutritional value ensures that these may provide you with the satisfactory results in much lesser time than it is expected to.

    The rich taste of the berry is enhanced by its having a natural chocolaty flavor, added to the taste of the common fruit-berry. High in both amino acids, fatty acids and protein content, they are not only the anti-aging miracle but also your perfect health food. You are likely to feel more energetic and hardworking as you start consuming them regularly. Premature aging can sure be combated with the berry, but it also raises your intellectual abilities and is a perfect antidote to gout and arthritis. Acai juice is found to raise anti-oxidants in our blood just two hours after they are consumed!!

    Nature's Energy Fruit: Acai Berry as seen on Oprah's Show!



    You've likely never even heard of Acai Berry but Oprah has just featured it on her show and it is one of the 10 superfoods promoted by Dr Perricone. Studies have shown that this little berry is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods in the world! Açaí (ah-sigh-ee) berries are the high-energy berry of a special Amazon palm tree. Harvested in the rainforests of Brazil, açaí berry tastes like a vibrant and yummy blend of berries and chocolate. Açaí berry is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Although açaí berry may not yet be available in your local supermarket, you can find it in several health food and gourmet stores.

    A new product featuring the unsweetened pulp is now also available, and Oprah and Dr. Perricone highly recommend that you choose this form of açaí berry as the acai berry pulp adds even more nutrients than the typical juice form.



    Açaí berry pulp contains:

    o An intense concentration of antioxidants that help combat premature aging, with 10 times more antioxidants than red grapes and 10 to 30 times the anthocyanins of red wine. These antioxidants keep your skin soft and supple and smooth and can actually reverse some wrinkle lines.
    o An effective combination of monounsaturated (healthy) fats, dietary fiber and phytosterols to help promote cardiovascular and digestive health. Phytosterols from plant sources have been found to be beneficial in treating many conditions, such as improving the immune system, arthritis and high cholesterol. The plant sterols compete for absorption sites with those of cholesterol (an animal sterol), they thus reduce the amount of cholesterol absorbed. Total and LDL (low-density lipid) cholesterol levels can be reduced by the ingestion of phytosterols.
    o An almost perfect essential amino acid complex in conjunction with valuable trace minerals, vital to proper muscle health contraction and regeneration.

    The fatty acid content in açaí berry resembles that of olive oil and other healthy oils such as canola and grapeseed, and is rich in monounsaturated oleic acid. Oleic acid is important for a number of reasons. It helps omega-3 rich oils such as fish oils penetrate the cell membrane; together they help make cell membranes more supple and flexible. By keeping the cell membrane supple, all hormones, neurotransmitter and insulin receptors function more efficiently. This is particularly critical as high insulin levels create an inflammatory state, and as we know, inflammation causes unwanted and unnecessary aging. From a health standpoint, oleic acid exhibits further benefits as it has been shown to slow the development of heart disease.

    One very interesting use of oleic acid is its use as an ingredient in Lorenzo's oil made well known in a TV movie, a medication developed to prevent onset of adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), a condition effecting boys that attacks the myelin sheaths of the body, causing debilitating symptoms similar to those in multiple sclerosis. Though Lorenzo's oil does not cure the condition, it can delay onset or progression of the disease in those who are not yet symptomatic.

    There seem to be many reasons to at least try the acai berry diet. The taste alone, berries plus dark chocolate, sounds compelling.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this article on the wonders of the acai berry.
