Acai Extract
Solgar's Acai Extract is native to the rainforests of Brazil, and contains natural flavonoids and antioxidants to contribute to your overall well-being. The acai (pronounced Ah-Sa-E) palm tree, Euterpe oleracea, is found in Central and South America and is most plentiful in Brazil, particularly in the flood plains of the Amazon.
For centuries, acai, which translates to:
• fruit that cries, has been included in the diets of the Amazon's native peoples. Recent studies have shown that acai fruit possesses naturally high concentrations of antioxidants known as polyphenols, including anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and other flavonoids. Anthocyanins are a group of phytochemical pigments that give deep color to fruits and vegetables, including the dark-purple or reddish-purple acai berry, and are naturally high in antioxidant value.
• antioxidant
• fights free radicals
• natural source of polyphenol
Antioxidants help our bodies fight free radicals, which cause oxidative stress when present in excess. Oxidative stress negatively impacts many aspects of health, including the immune system, cardiovascular health, and aging. Studies indicate that acai's antioxidant properties protect against oxidative stress. Research also suggests that these attributes of polyphenols may help support vascular health.
