Acai berries

By Hklbrries

The acai berry (which grows only in the Amazon) is said to be one of the most nutritionally dense berries on the planet, with between 10 and 30 times more antioxidants than grapes, pomegranates and blueberries. It's also rich in vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids, which help prevent heart disease and lower cholesterol.

The acai berry is highly perishable and not available fresh. It's sold instead as a powder, capsule or liquid.

Enjoy acai on its own as a fruit juice drink (it tastes like a combination of blueberries and chocolate), or add acai powder to smoothies and other juices. It's also delicious sprinkled on fruit salads.
