Antioxidants

Açaí berries are one of the most potent antioxidant containing foods in the world, containing over 16 types of antioxidants. Açaí has 42 times the antioxidant concentration of blueberries and 4 times the antioxidants of another popular superfood, goji berries.  Because our Amazonia açaí berries are snap frozen at a facility close to where they are picked, we are able to preserve antioxidants which are otherwise broken down when the berries lose their freshness.

We guarantee our products to be the purest and most potent açaí products on the market with the highest ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value - a method of measuring the antioxidant capacity of different foods and supplements to neutralise free radicals, slow oxidative processes
and reduce free radical damage that can contribute to age-related degeneration and disease.

Anthocyanins
Açaí is one of the richest sources of anthocyanins ever discovered. Anthocyanins are powerful dietary antioxidants. They are known as flavonoid pigments, and they’re what give red and purple fruits and vegetables their rich colouration. Anthocyananins are what make red wine red – and açaí has 10 to 30 times the anthocyanin concentration of red wine!

Laboratory research shows that anthocyanins can offer a variety of health benefits including;

  • Reducing oxidation of LDL ('bad') cholesterol, reducing blood stickiness (platelet aggregation), dilated blood vessels and improve overall heart function.
  • Protectopm against cancer by inhibiting inflammation, cancerous changes in cells and tumour growths
  • Reducing premature brain aging and enhancing memory.
  • Helps prevent macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness in people of the age of 65.

Being wholefood and organic means when you consume our açaí berries your body immediately recognises it as a real food and absorbs it completely, just like any other fruit. Why pop synthetic multivitamin tablets when you can simply add a serving of Amazonia Açaí into your day and feel naturally invigorated?
