It might seem like acai berry supplements are a poor alternative for real acai berries. Perhaps they are, but before you make a judgment like that, consider this: when was the last time you saw an actual, real, acai berry in the stores down the road? Never? No, that’s because they are very rarely seen outside the immediate area in which they are harvested. The high fat content of the acai berry mean that it simply degrades so quickly that storage and distribution become impossibly expensive.
This difficulty is the reason we see so many different types of acai products: from acai supplements to acai juices to acai preserves. Of these arguably the most versatile are the benefits of acai berry supplements: not only are they tasteless and small, but you don’t need to start preparing all sorts of weird and (not so) wonderful dishes in which to put your acai. A big benefit of Acai supplements is they allow you to add acai to your diet without disrupting the rest of your life.
The acai berry itself is a pretty little drupe, almost 1 inch in diameter and containing a seed that takes up 80% of the fruit’s volume. The berries grown in large bunches way in the canopy of the Amazonian rain forest Exotic? You bet!
