ABOUT VIVA! ACAI
A Super Jolt of Nutrition in just
¼ oz. a day!
There is no doubt that Acai is big health news!
But as a consumer you want the best possible super fruit juice
and the enormous health benefits that come from them.
That is why Viva Acai includes both
Acai and Pomegranate.
Most of us are a little careless about our nutrition habits.
We know that we should be eating more fruits and vegetables but we
just don’t do it.
Fortunately, nature has brought us a new breed of nutrition and a simple
solution with super fruits.
Viva Acai is loaded with essential vitamins and incredible antioxidant
power.
In fact, Acai and Pomegranate are the top two super fruits in the world.
It’s a powerful jolt of nutrition and antioxidant benefits.
Nutrient Density
The nutrient density of Acai and Pomegranate is the key here.
For those of you who are not familiar with the term nutrient density,
it means the quantity of nutrients per calorie ingested.
In studies published in the Journal
of Food Science (May 2007), University of Florida researcher and
dietitian Gail Rampersaud reported on her studies of the nutrient density
of 100% fruit juices.
While this study is good in and of itself, she did not include
phytonutrients. Phytonutrients are the organic compounds found in super
fruits such as those found in Viva! Acai™.
It is notable that these top two super fruits are rich in antioxidants
and anthocyanin, a phytonutrient that provides enormous health potential.
Why add Pomegranate
to Acai?
Pomegranate is a top super fruit in and of itself. There has been a
great deal of research done on Pomegranate for its potential health benefits.
(To read some of the clinical studies go to
www.best-acai.org and click on
the clinical studies link.) A review of the enormous number of clinical
trials (which are ongoing) will tell you why Pomegranate is part of the
bold Viva!Acai™ formula.
So, while science has yet to provide us with a perfect definition of
what a super fruit is, these are the general scientific criteria for designating
a fruit as a super fruit. The list includes:
-
the density of the nutrients provided
-
the antioxidant power offered
-
the health benefit potential
-
the ability of the particular fruit to affect other
cell and molecular structures
-
and, in the case of Pomegranate, the amount of clinical
research that has already been carried out on that particular fruit.
Acai is now the #1 super fruit in the world and it is generating a
lot of publicity in leading publications and in televised reports.
Given the large and growing body of clinical evidence that supports
the health values associated with using Pomegranate, it is the perfect
ingredient to add to Viva!Acai™.
