If you did your research, you know that acai berry is the best of the best berry ever existed. Actually, we should start taking this supplement at young age, so we will age beautifully!
Acai berries are known for their deep purple color, and for being a rich source of many important vitamins and antioxidants. Acai berries contain high amounts of fiber and a good amount of protein and healthy fats. Acai berries also have one of the highest ORAC values of any known edible berry. ORAC is the measure of a foods antioxidant value. Acai berries also have 33 times more health promoting Anthocyanins than red grapes!

Anthocyanins and their protective properties:
* Inflammation and Collagen: Anthocyanins neutralize enzymes that destroy connective tissue. Their antioxidant capacity prevents oxidants from damaging connective tissues and repair damaged proteins in the blood vessel walls.
* The Nervous System: By preventing tyrosine nitration, the anthocyanin properties in acai may help protect against neurological diseases. The primary anthocyanins in acai, known as Cyanidin-3-glucoside, have been found to help in the reversal of age-related neurological deficits.
* Large and Small Blood Vessels: The ability of anthocyanins to counter oxidants make them a powerhouse in the fight against arteriosclerosis. Even in trace amounts, anthocyanins effectively protect against LDL oxidation. Anthocyanins protect the integrity of the endothelial cells that line blood vessel walls and help to maintain micro capillary integrity. Diabetes: One of the serious diabetic complications is retinopathy, which in most cases can cause blindness. This condition occurs when the body attempts to repair leaking, damaged capillaries, but does so by over- producing abnormal proteins. The protection from anthocyanins may help prevent these capillaries from leaking and to help prevent abnormal protein proliferation.
* Eyesight: Anthocyanins may also help improve eyesight through numerous mechanisms. In the Second World War, British fighter pilots were found to have improved night vision. These findings were thought to be contributed by the large amounts of bilberry in the pilots' diet. The effects of the improved night vision were not long lasting after the initial consumption of bilberry, in fact, lasting only hours after initial consumption. With this newfound advantage, the pilots would consume the bilberry fruits just prior to their mission.
Pigmented fruits are known to carry the highest amounts of anthocyanins. Fruits that can be eaten with skin on, offer the highest value of anthocyanins. These fruits would consist of acai, cherries, grapes, raspberries, blueberries, and bilberry to name a few.
