Acai berries are a Brazilian “superfruit.” They’re native to the Amazon region, where they’re a staple food. However, they’ve recently gained popularity globally and are praised for being particularly beneficial to health and well-being.

This dark purple fruit certainly packs a lot of nutrition and may even have lots of great health benefits, including 

Fresh acai berries have a short shelf life and aren’t available outside of where they are grown. As an export, they are sold as a frozen fruit purée, dried powder or pressed juice.

When consumed as a juice or pulp, açaí berries can increase blood antioxidant levels and reduce chemicals involved in oxidative stress.

Additionally, açaí berry pulp has been shown to reduce blood sugar, insulin, and blood cholesterol levels in adults with overweight who consumed 200 grams per day for 1 month

These effects have also been observed in athletes. In one study, drinking 3 ounces (100 ml) of an açaí juice blend for 6 weeks reduced blood cholesterol and oxidative stress after exercise, which may speed up recovery from muscle damage (48Trusted Source).

The antioxidants in açaí may also help reduce the symptoms of osteoarthritis. A study of people with osteoarthritis found that drinking 4 ounces (120 ml) of açaí juice per day for 12 weeks significantly reduced pain and improved daily living

According to 44 studies, Açaí berries are one of the best sources of antioxidant polyphenols and may contain as much as 10 times more antioxidants than blueberries.
