National Nutrition Professional Supplement Review’s with Leading Health Expert Karlene Karst.

Karlene gives us a 3 minute professional supplement review on Acai Berry and how it’s such a powerful antioxidant.

Traditionally the acai berry was used to treat diarrhea, parasitic infections, hemorrhages and ulcers. In the general consumer market, acai is sold as frozen pulp, juice, and in various products from beverages and foods, to cosmetics and supplements rather than fresh, because getting them out of the Amazon with the nutrients still intact is a complicated process. The taste is often described as reminiscent of wild berries and chocolate. Although initially thought of as a weight loss aid, recent research has debunked that myth. Now it is generally thought of as a superfruit because of its extremely rich antioxidant content and high levels of omega fats.
