Acai
Acai berries, the small, deep purple "super fruit" of the acai palm, contain high concentrations of phytochemicals, antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and amino acids. The wide variety of antioxidant compounds — including anthocyanins and flavonoids — make it one of the most potent antioxidant foods known. These compounds also have valuable anti-inflammatory properties and are effective in promoting immune system function.
