The acai berry is the fruit of the acai palm, a small, purple berry typically found in the floodplains and swamps of the Amazon region of Brazil.
These dark, shiny, nutrient-rich berries are harvested twice a year. The seed of the acai berry makes up about 80% of the entire fruit. After grinding, the seed can be used in certain animal feeds. The acai berry is harvested by hand from the upper branches of the acai palm, and then pulp is pressed from it. Acai pulp is naturally processed by freezing the berry and then rapidly reducing the pressure to evaporate the frozen natural water. After drying, the acai pulp is ground into a powder.
The celebrated =superfood=. Acai berry powder is deservedly popular among health-obsessed people due to its nutritional value.
The acai berry has been consumed by humans for hundreds of years. It is extremely tasty, and its healing effects are legendary. The acai berry has ten times as many antioxidants as grapes and twice as many as blueberries.
