Before it reached the U.S. in the early 2000s, the acai berry had an odd cultural evolution in its homeland. Moving organically from rain forest to urban center with the urbanizing indigenous people themselves. Soon enough all Brazilians were embracing Acai's properties.

Clinical studies have suggested that Acai may help maintain normal neurological function.

Scientists noted that polyphenols and polysaccharides unique to Acai can enter human cells in a fully functional form to perform an oxygen quenching function at very low doses. Quenching your thirst with Acai is a fair shake for your immune system.
