Acai Berry: Nature's Little Gift

The acai berry originates from the rainforests of central America, where it plays a pivotal role as a stape of the indiginous people in that area.

Although the people in the area have been aware of the immense benefits of acai berry for many hundreds of years, it has only recently come to the fore as a wonder-food outside its growing area. Popular media stars such as Oprah have pushed the acai berry to the very top of the list of superfoods, and have made it a 'must-have' health and diet supplement.

And there is no doubt that the acai berry deserves its place at the top of this pedestal: scientists have shown that it can help in preventing diseases as diverse and serious as diabetes and cancer. Some reports claim that it can even improve your eyesight!

Whatever the benefits of acai berry, it is the antioxidants and anthocyanins contained in the fruit that make it so very special.
