Benefits of Acai
|
Acai contains two central fatty acids recognized as Omega 9 and Omega 6. Omega 9 fatty acids decrease LDL and help keep HDL levels. Further ressearch proves that Omega 6 actually aids in reducing LDL–the damaging cholesterol. Acai's Anti-Oxidant elements have a big role in maintaining the vascular cardiac system; this is essential for smoother blood circulation. Acai's dark purple color exists because of polyphenolic compounds present. A major plant chemical in Acai gets much attention; this compound is known as anthocyanin. Anthocyanins are a cluster of Flavonoids which is broadly distributed in plants; it also gives a red to purple color to fruits such as grapes, raspberries, and blackberries. Furthermore, it contains the usual minerals and vitamins that are carried in most fruits. |
