All the best ideas come from nature. All the best ideas are simple. Take the nutritional labeling of foods for example. A simple color code to tell the buyer exactly how good, or not so good the product they are buying really is. A really good idea taken straight from nature because vegetables and fruit come in myriad colors and the more colorful they are the better they tend to be for us. The acai berry juice from the acai palm berry is a rich deep purple color and it is as if the fruit itself is calling out to us “hey look at me, I’m the best possible thing you can eat”!
The acai berry is loaded with chemical substances called anthocyanins. They give it it’s ‘come eat me ‘ color because they are flexible and abundant flavorful coloring agents. They are found in the red to purplish fruits and vegetables, such as the acai, the purple cabbage, beet roots, blueberries, cherries, raspberries and black grapes. Inside the plants they act as preserving antioxidants and colorings giving to the beautiful healthy hues of edible fruits.
Unfortunately some crazy organizations mix the acai berry juice with others. It all started with the guarana syrup which has caffeine as an ingredient. Then others took up the idea that caffeine could enhance the already perfect. So instead of sticking with the natural way of judging by the color you have to be really careful about what you eat and drink by reading the labels in detail.
The anthocyanins in the acai berry juice and pulp deteriorates very quickly. So, for the best nutritional value, acai juice should never be cooked, rather eaten as it comes as an enhancer to ice cream, or the key ingredient of something normally refrigerated like smoothies. Acai juice must always be kept refrigerated to keep its true health values.
Because the nutritional value drops hugely when heat is applied, you can get the most benefits of acai from the pulp as a frozen product. Freezers should always be kept at minus eighteen degrees and stock rotated within 3 months at the most. Allow your acai pulp to soften and thaw while at room temperature for about an hour. Then crush it and add it to your favorite extras or put it into a blender to break it down further.

The acai berry grows on trees. Big palm trees in the fantastically fertile lands of the Amazon basin in Brazil. Some unique combination of the soil and the climate make the acai berry very powerful as a source of nutrition. Unfortunately where good things grow there also grow parasites. Parasites know a good thing when they see it and they see it in the acai berry.
The most fertile environment for parasites is an atmosphere of fear. Unfortunately the acai berry juice can be and is being used as a lever to gouge money out of frightened gullible people. This is how it works. People are afraid of getting old. People are afraid of getting ill. People are afraid of dying. People will take risks and part with good money at the promise of anything that defies aging, keeps them healthy, or makes them live longer.
Then some parasite comes along on the Internat and promises an acai supplement that has been hyped to the hills as an anti aging, health giving, elixir of life. The parasites offer you a free trial pack or a free trial period. They’ll tell you that the acai berry will detoxify you. They’ll tell you that the acai berry will help you to lose weight and get the body you have always dreamt of. These parasites are scam artists! They are charging a huge price for a near useless acai supplement. Parasites only buy the cheapest of the cheap products in order to maximize their profit margins. The parasites are living off the true and justifiable evidence for tha efficacy of the acai berry juice.
The acai supplement, if of the right quality is a great source of antioxidants and amino acids. It is good for you. But don’t let your anxiety get you carried away with the publicity hype. Take care when considering any ’special offer’. The word ‘free’ followed by a request for your credit card data is a dead giveaway. Scrutinize the small print and the legal terms and conditions. Never trust a website where the only means of payment is Western Union transfer. This is nothing against Western Union, because they are fine institution with a fine service record but legitimate business have all possible means of payment.
The acai berry juice and supplements are good products but beware of the parasites that try to feed off it.

Fat is unattractive, while healthy is sexy! It is an evolutionary psychological thing. The sexes mate with one another on the basis of which mate will give the healthiest children. Don’t follow the T shirt philosophy of ‘diets start tomorrow’ rather take on another philosophy such as ‘ACAI for an ass to see’.
There are three principles in this philosophy for sexual attractiveness.
1. Do the right exercise at the right time.
Eat right and take acai berry juice.
Understand how your body’s energy system works.
Without knowing how the body burns energy is the same as driving a car without knowing what the gas pedal does. It’s wasteful, expensive and dangerous.
The more we do the more we burn energy, especially when we exercise. We burn two types of energy, carbohydrates in the blood, mostly glucose, and fat.
Fat is the body’s reserve fuel tank. It will burn glucose first and fat second. So we lose weight when the primary fuel tank is low and the body has to take energy from its’ fat reserves. Understanding this helps us to do the best things in order to keep the reserve tank of fat low and make best use of the main energy tank.
When we do things such as just generally getting around and light exercise we use up more fat relative to carbohydrates. This is because fat is slow a burning fuel that needs the oxygen in our blood.
So the right exercise to lose weight is light exercise for long periods. The most effective time to lose weight fast is before breakfast. Think about it. Your body has been burning fuel all night and the main tank is at its lowest. So if you can build a thirty minute light exercise routine into your day before you eat you will burn up to three times more fat than at any other time. Smaller meals more often with lots of real food, mostly plants, will ensure a perfect weight sexy body.
Then add a super food supplement to your diet such as acai berries as pure juice or pulp in smoothies or yogurt. These berries are so full of anti-oxidants and unsaturated fats that you are giving your new ‘lose weight get healthy’ lifestyle the best possible chance of success.
