Acaí Bowl

So I finally got my hands on some acaí (ah-sigh-EE) powder! Which of course meant I made the worlds largest acaí bowl this morning!

Although i’d heard lots about acaí, i’d never taken the time to really investigate the health benefits, until this morning that is! like all super foods around today there is a lot of hype around this berry so I wanted to know whether it really was worth the $12.95 I paid for the teeny sachet…and from what I can find, it certainly is!

  • Helps to increase your antioxidant levels to aid in neutralising damaging free radicals.
  • Boosts your energy levels.
  • Supports your immune system.
  • Helps to promote a healthy digestive system.

These however, are only some of the many wonderful health benefits this fruit produce. There have been many studies performed and through these it has been discovered that not only can this berry help with basic health issues such as digestive health it can also benefit people suffering from more serious issues such as high cholesterol.
