More than 80% of the acai berry is made up of plant derived monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, the healthy fats, which are needed for essential metabolic functions. A one ounce serving is 15 calories, 2 grams dietary fiber, 1 gram of protien and 3 grams total sugars. The ultimate health food.

Dr Perricone stated in his 2005 book " The Perricone Weight-loss Diet":

"Because of thr excellent fatty acid, amino acid, and anti-inflammatory profile, Acai deserves star billing. One of the qualities I love about Acai is that it provides us quality protein, healthy fat, and powerful antioxidants, all in one amazing berry." (pp. 58-59)

It is also Dr. Perricone's opinion that Acai allows "all hormones, neurotransmitters, and insulin receptors to function more efficiently; critically important to maintain homeostasis, that is, keeping the body working as it should because all of its systems are in balance." (p 59) It is Dr. Perricone's belief that only when this balance happens can someone lose weight or keep from gaining additional unwanted weight.

"Acai is good for weight loss because it contains cyanidin"

Dr. Perricone continues "Acai is good for weight loss because it contains cyanidin, a highly antioxidant phytochemical compond." This claim is based on a Japanese research report that found evidence that cyanins work by reducing fat asorption and "draining body fat". (p 59)

Dr. Alexander Schauss states in his book "Acai, An Extraordinary Antioxidant-Rich Palm Fruit";

"In 2006, we reported that freeze-dried Acai's lipophilic oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) is the highest of any berry ever tested. This property means that Acai has the potential to inhibit lipid oxidation and thereby reduce the risk of cholesterol being oxidized.

Although this assumption is based on in vitro research ( done in the lab, not in the body), by the end of 2007, we have already reported to an international symposium on the health effects of fruits and vegetables, that in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study of healthy adults 10 to 52, a beverage containing as its predominant ingredient Acai, did significantly inhibit the oxidation of lipids, based on the gold standard thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assay. We also found that this beverage was able to significantly increase antioxidant activity in serum during oxidative stress based on the reactive oxygen stress in red blood cells (ROS RBC) assay, which measures the ability of antioxidants in Acai to enter into living cells and protect them from damage." (p53)

"Acai fruit is a superb source of giving your body it's daily requirements of nutrients"

The important information this gives us is that the Acai fruit is a superb source of giving your body it's daily requirement of nutrients. One question that often comes up is how much to take?

If you are taking Acai Berry Juice for general healthy living, 1 to 2 ounces a day.

If you are trying to lose weight and want to use Acai Berry Juice to help you get your body in balance, 2 to 4 ounces a day depending on your size and your diet, if you've been eating a lot of processed foods then drink more. Remember this is not what is going to make you lose weight. It is going to put your body in a better physiological condition for you to burn more calories then you consume. You want to get your body to that point where you are "in balance".

So how much Acai is in those Acai Weight Loss Capsules? I looked at bunch of different ones, some had green tea, others nothing more then Acai Berry was claimed. None of them showed the amount of acai in their products but Amazon Thunder pure acai berry pulp capsules contain 1 gram per 2 capsules. You would need to take 8 capsules to get the same amount of acai as in one ounce of acai berry juice. This is comparing Amazon Thunder products, these diet products probably have a lot less acai in them for a lot more money.
