Acai has many supporters: from Dr. Nicholas Perricone, professor at Michigan State University, to Oprah Winfrey, world-famous social commentator. Many media outlets have leaped upon the acai bandwagon, too; the New York Times a published a very glowing piece about it a number of years ago.

And there are lots of excellent reasons why acai is being lauded as the most potent super food in the world: it is.

Unfortunately you will not find acai in its original fruit form any time soon. The fruit degrades so quickly after it is harvested that it simply has to be processed into another form before it can be packaged and sent off to its adoring fans. Sometimes this takes the form of a juice or puree. Other times, like with Pure Acai, you get a concentrated hit of acai in pill or powder form.

When you look at what acai does for your body, it seems an obvious logical step to apply this wonder food as some kind of dieting aid. This is just what the makers of Pure Acai have done. Pure Acai is made from pure freeze dried extracts from the acai plant and, it claims, is a concentrated dose of exactly what makes acai so worth it. Pure Acai is essentially pure nutrient, pure goodness.
