Anti-aging Superfood

There is a new superfood on the block and it's name is Acai.
"Acai berry" that is.
A previously little-known fruit harvested from the Brazilian rainforest is now gaining recognition for its high levels of the cholesterol-fighting fatty acids, Omega 6 and Omega 9, and its strong concentration -- up to 33 times that found in red wine grapes -- of anthocyanin, a powerful anti-oxidant.

The acai berry is especially noteworthy for the antioxidant properties afforded by its concentration of anthocyanin -- which is also present in red wine -- that prevents oxidants from harming connective tissue while repairing damaged proteins in blood vessel walls. This helps explain the “French Paradox.” The French, who are noted wine drinkers, have one of the lowest incidences of heart disease of any westernized society despite a diet high in cholesterol and saturated fat.

For the past ten years it has been studied by scientists globally. It has been scientifically proven to work dramatically and rapidly as an incredible natural remedy and cure for ailments such as inflammation, arthritis, cardiovascular health as well as many other nutritional deficiencies.
