Do you know?

Açaí (ah-sa-ee) is a dark purple berry that resembles a blueberry, originating from the palm trees found in the Amazon rainforests.

​

An Açaí berry is packed with an incredible amount of antioxidants (up to 10 times the amount that blueberries offer), which helps cleanse the damaging effects of free-radicals in your body and fight signs of ageing. 

It is loaded with Omegas 3, 6 & 9, a healthy fat that prevent heart disease and help maintain a healthy cholesterol. At around 2 grams per serving, açaí serves as a source of heart-healthy fibre in your diet.

It is also extremely low in sugar, making it a guilt-free and nutritious option as either a meal, dessert, or snack without having to worry the calories. Not to mention the berries are only about 70 calories a cup!
