Synerplex Acai


Acai (Ah- sah- ee) is commonly used in many beverages and food preparations in Brazil and the United States. Acai has been used as a folk medicine as well as an important source of nutrients for the indigenous peoples of Brazil, Colombia and Suriname for thousands of years, The Deep purple freeze-dried version of this popular berry-like fruit, exhibits exceptional activity against superoxide in the superoxide scavenging (SOD) assay of any food reported to date. There are two species of acai, Euterpe oleracea and Euterpe precatoria. Of the two, the precatoria species has been shown to have the most powerful effect which is why we use it exclusively.


What is Unique about our Acai?

1) Freeze Drying. Our Acai is freeze dried in the Amazon to reduce degradation and preserve the full power of nature’s most potent anti oxidant.

  1. Documentation. Our Acai has been thoroughly studied and its properties verified by the vendor.

  2. ORAC value. The total ORAC (oxygen radial absorbance capacity assay) reading for our Acai, which is a reflection of its total antioxidant capability was an astonishing 1026 per gram, well above any other berry or food. The ORAC values cannot be assured without freeze drying. Our Acai concentrations of anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, flavonoids, sterols, fatty acids, amino acids, vitamins and minerals makes this a truly unique and powerful functional food.


Of all the Acai products on the market, we are the only ones that use Euterpe precatoria exclusively.
