University of Florida Study Discloses the Benefits of the Acai Berry!

Filed under: Acai Production & Harvesting — myacai @ 12:48 am

The University of Florida has announced a study it did of the amazing Acai Berry.  They have shown in that lab setting that the high concentration of antioxidants found in the berry actually destroy cancel cells.  More experimentation and data is needed to confirm this finding but is exciting!  The acai berry has long been known in Brazil to help with a wide variety of health issues.  These include the treatment of disorders of the digestive tract, lower cholesterol, weight loss, and gain energy. 

 The study also suggests that a minimum of 5 servings is recommended for the full benefits of the acai berry.  However, this of course depends on your source of the berry.  And we have consistently stated that there is no better supply of the acai berry in the form of juice than Mona Vie.  Mona Vie juice combines the acai berry with many, many more to provide a powerful combination of antioxidants of and a range of other nutrients.  Because of this, Mona Vie only recommends 2 servings a day of their acai juice.  With just 2 servings a day you get these health benefits.  There may not be a better action you can take for your body and your health.

The Healthy Rainforest

Filed under: Acai Production & Harvesting — myacai @ 5:31 pm

Deep in Brazil lies a jungle called the Amazon Rainforest. Known to most by its abundant flora and wildlife, the forest is a great wealth of information to the world. In addition to information, the various plants also provide several health benefits to everyone. One in particular is the açai berry. This berry grows on trees near bodies of water and is extremely high in antioxidants. This is just one of many things the Amazon Rainforest has to offer.    There are many discoveries that some of the plants help in developing new medicines and this is researched by interviewing people indigenous to the area. Because the area has been occupied for centuries, many people have profited from the vast healthy properties the rainforest has to offer. Aside from the açai berry, guarana can be found in the rainforest. It too is a small berry like fruit that is also sweet and juicy. Besides having all the trees that add to the world’s oxygen levels, the rainforest has herbs that are being used in studies to help cure Alzheimer’s. There are at least 10 known plants that can heal in the Amazon rainforest. A few of the illnesses that are currently being studied are arthritis pain, (Una de Gato for this), low energy, (algae can be used for this!)and excess weight, (stevia for this). Like anything else, some don’t work and only have the effect of placebos but for the most part, there are legitimate health benefits in the Amazon Rainforest.
