- In this video I talk about Acai Berry and go into more depth about it's role as an antioxidant (including the ORAC scale). I also try to answer the question is Acai Berry a superfood or a scam? [Hint: the answer is somewhere in the middle].
I appreciate your opinions about acai. I tried acai and was hooked. I love the flavor. I make them at home now with a frozen brand called Sambazon. I tried the Dole and didn’t like theirs. It’s sold in packets of healthy fruits, vegetables (and a packet of frozen acai.) I just add water or almond milk. I top it with fresh fruit like bananas, blueberries, strawberries, granola and honey. I crave them. I have been eating them every other day for over a month and I feel great. It’s hard to tell if its because of the acai. (So many factors) I am on immunotherapy (Keytruda) for stage 4 lung cancer. I had my 82nd infusion last week. (I am a rare 5 year survivor) Immunotherapy’s success has a link to a healthy gut biome. I asked my oncologist if it’s safe to eat and he said absolutely because of its high nutritional value.
Thanks so much for the comment Robin. Really appreciate your feedback. I'm sorry to hear about your cancer. You will be in my thoughts and prayers 🙏 You are spot on about the gut microbiome.
There is no such thing as one single vegetable or fruit considered to be the miracle super food. You need to take wide range, variety and combination of them put together to obtain the full benefits of what each and every one of them has to offer. But yes, I agree there is really no such thing as a single superfood but do keep eating them, in the end you will gain, and reap far greater benefits then prescription or OTC drugs has to offer.
Thanks the info. Btw, excellent script, framing, and audio. 👍
I just like the taste - think it is exotic and more good than bad.
I buy the pure ground powder and use it as a topping. 😊❤🎉
I'm not sure why the big hype. I personally enjoy the fruit flavor. I'm here because I'm not sure what it does. Definitely wouldn't call any fruit a superfood.
With exception of Avocado.
Açaí in Brazil ( RIO ) taste totally different ( much better) than the frozen products sold @ WholeFoods or Trader Joe’s.
Thanks. Didn’t know that 👍🏻
What about Maca? Is from Peru and they exported here to United States is not good either? 🤔🤔
It's better to stick to there countries native foods and culture as per our ansisters did then no issue even they survived with the local available foods in those days things here and there ... Bec how ever we cannot move the tectonic plates haha
Why they said is good for cancer too? There is this you tube video where this guy said is good for cancer! I tray it and it taste like chocolate whit no sugar I really don’t know if is good or not! But if it got antioxidants that’s all I care I make it in shakes with kale,banana,raspberries,strawberries, spinach,and mass gain, collagen, and my skin look more healthy but is not only the açaí I’m realistic is all I put in it as well.
Look who's saying a drug dealer.
😂😂 who is a Drug dealer?

So eggs, grass fed beef liver, oyster are super foods that sound shady to me...😂😂😂😂. In the words of our famous president......"come on man"
No, he is infamous…

Yeah it's bogus, don't eat meat or animal. Only eat plants, vegan, vegetarian, or insects.
Leave nasty beef and toxic oysters to me, I'll sacrifice myself to eat those terrible foods.
