GBG Prosperity

Well, now you know! But why is this important you ask? I’ll tell you a little about the Açai berry.

The Açai berry is recognized to have about thirty times more antioxidant power than red wine. In addition,  the highly nutritious fruit has the essential fatty acids Oleic acid (Omega 9) and Linoleic acid (Omega 6).  It is rich in dietary fibre; in fact,  a 100g serving of Açai fruit gives the equivalence of 3 wholegrain bread in fiber.

You must be thinking, so what? Well, antioxidants are working for you day and night! Antioxidants are fighting free radicals for you, do you know what free radicals want to do to you? They navigate through your bloodstream trying to reach your tissues and damaging your cells. Free radicals are responsible for accelerated aging and for diseases such as cancer and antioxidants are neutralizing them before they have the chance to harm you.

Now, talking about Oleic Acid, did you ever see the movie “Lorenzo’s Oil”? With Susan Sarandon and Nick Nolte? If you did, then, you know something about Oleic Acid, if you didn’t, go and rent it! It’s a very good movie, it’s a true story and it tells about the medicinal power or Oleic Acid.

Taken from http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-oleic-acid.htm here’s some information…

“From a health standpoint, oleic acid exhibits further benefits. It has been shown to slow the development of heart disease, and promotes the production of antioxidants. One very interesting use of oleic acid is its use as an ingredient in Lorenzo’s oil, a medication developed to prevent onset of adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), a condition effecting only young boys that attacks the myelin sheaths of the body, causing symptoms similar to those in multiple sclerosis. Though Lorenzo’s oil does not cure the condition, it can delay onset or progression of the disease in those who are not yet symptomatic.”

About Linoleic Acid, let me tell you, it is just as impressive! Taken from http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-conjugated-linoleic-acid.htm:

“Conjugated linoleic acid is by no means intended to be a diet miracle drug, but in tandem with dieting and regular exercise it has been shown to have a substantial effect. Conjugated linoleic acid does not destroy fat or strip it from the body, but it does appear to stop fat cells from growing as rapidly as they otherwise would. Basically, conjugated linoleic acid assists the glucose we ingest to be directed to muscle cells rapidly and more efficiently. This means the glucose doesn’t go to feed fat cells, and instead helps muscle cells rebuild and grow. The end result is that less fat develops throughout the body, while muscle grows at a faster rate.”

What I want to tell you, is Açai is a pretty powerful little fruit! And I don’t know about you, but I’m glad that I found a health drink that contains Açai, PLUS: Pomegranate, Goji, Mangosteen and more! (check back again soon because, I’ll be discussing those power fruits later on this blog) and I get ALL the benefits in just 1 oz a day!
