The Acai Berry is being touted as the best antioxidant dietary supplement. There are good reasons why many people use this antioxidant dietary supplement. I am going to go over some of the reasons you should try them.

Free Radicals

Your body is full of free radicals. These free radicals roam around your body and damage your cells. I won’t go over the mechanics of this, but suffice it to say, these are bad. If you want more details, I recommend trying Wikipedia or WebMD.

Antioxidants

Antioxidants get rid of free radicals. However, in the process of neutralizing a free radical, the antioxidant is destroyed. This means you have to keep replenishing the supply of antioxidants in your body.


Antioxidant Dietary Supplement Levels

You can get more antioxidants by eating fruits or vegetables that are rich with antioxidants. Below are some fruits and vegetables and how much antioxidants they have in them. I can’t tell you exactly what ORAC is, but more is better so you want to have higher values if you are trying to get more antioxidants.

  • Broccoli – 900 ORAC
  • Peach – 1,300 ORAC
  • Strawberry – 2,600 ORAC
  • Blueberry – 3,200 ORAC
  • Pomegranate – 10,500 ORAC
  • Acai Berry - 18,400 ORAC

The problem with high antioxidant foods is that they are either hard to come by, out of season for most of the year, or just plain aren’t appetizing to most people. Fortunately there is a solution:  Antioxidant Dietary Supplements!

Antioxidant Benefits

Once you start getting more antioxidants, you should start feeling better and generally be healthier. They aren’t a miracle weight loss pill that will allow you to sit around and do nothing and still lose weight. They will help you have more energy which makes you more active which leads to weight loss. Same end result, just different mechanics.

Closing Comments

You can get free trials for acai berry supplements from several different companies and that is one of the reasons I really like acai berries. There are so many great trial offers out there that you can try them before you buy and decide if they are right for you. If not, you cancel and pay nothing more. Go to AcaiBerryPill.info to get your free acai berry antioxidant dietary supplements and see if you think it is the best antioxidant supplement.

So.. ORAC stands for "Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity."  I'm not totally sure I buy your assertion that this is the one and only metric by which to measure Acai as the best ever.  Is that truly what you believe?

And this comes from a big Acai fan, who takes it himself daily...

I didn't want to get overly technical, but from everything I know, ORAC is the standard for measuring antioxidants. I have read some of the technical papers, but not all.

As far as antioxidant supplements, I do believe acai berry is the best. With that said, I have not tested it personally against other supplements, but again based on the numbers I think it is safe to say that "high quality" acai is the best antioxidant.

I love the research on antioxidants because it hints at the possibility of virtually stopping the aging process. What is your opinion as you are obviously knowledgeable on acai berry research?
