Body Detox with Acai Berry

In an ancient Brazilian swamp, a young tribal warrior together with his band was steadily hunting a tiger, following its paw tracks in the slightly dried mud. It was a sweltering day and Achaie was very thirsty. His bandmates cried out to him to stop for a while and find something to drink. Achaie being a compassionate man, allowed his band to rest under an extremely shady palm tree despite knowing that the tiger could strike on them anytime. One of his closest friends, Belios decided to scale up this palm tree in search of fruit. Upon discovering a cluster of black-purplish berry fruits, he shouted to Achaie and threw down the fruit to him. It smelled and looked unfamiliar to Achaie but he was almost dying of thirst so he slowly crushed a berry and tasted the juice. Oh, how deliciously sweet was the juice! Achaie then commanded Belios to gather more fruit from the palm tree and encouraged his band to drink the juice. After drinking their fill, the band felt energised and with renewed vigour, continued their search. Finally, they found the huge tiger at the end of the forest and gave chase to the tiger. They killed the tiger and ran back to their village, carrying the carcass.

Some people commented that the warriors looked very young and not tired which prompted Achaie to go back to that palm tree and harvest its fruits. The whole tribe benefited from the miraculous properties of the fruit including faster healing of scars and radiant youthful complexions. In honour of Achaie’s discovery of the fruit, the tribe called it the acai berry.

Detoxify your Body with Acai Berry

Today, the acai berry is considered one of the world’s superpower antioxidant foods.  Measuring just one inch, the tiny fruit packs in at least 300% more antioxidants than grapes or blueberries. Little wonder that the acai berry is now used as part of detox programs. When eaten in its liquid or tablet form, the antioxidants fight free radicals (which contribute to body ageing) and in the process, cause the person to feel younger and healthier. Because of its ability to improve blood circulation, the acai berry can boost one’s immune system. When the immune system becomes more powerful, metabolism levels can be kept high and contribute to a faster rate of fat-burning, which allows the person to lose weight more quickly. At the same time, this berry contains omega-3 and omega-9 compounds that help balance cholesterol levels, which is good news for those who have high cholesterol. The acai's skin and pulp have also been found to contain many beneficial nutrients.
