When properly freeze-dried, açai boasts an ORAC score higher than that of any other fruit or vegetable tested to date, based on available USDA data.

Recently, modern science has validated the remarkable health benefits of this fruit, and studies have shown açai to contain the following beneficial nutrients:
Studies have also shown that freeze-dried açai powder boasts antioxidant capacity more than 15 times higher than blueberries and more than 20 times higher than raspberries. The final blend incorporates the flavors and benefits of the açai berry and other healthful and delicious fruits. WHAT MAKES UNIQUE? THE KEY INGREDIENT.

Rich in polyphenols (a powerful form of antioxidants), açai is able to neutralize free radicals, thereby lowering oxidative stress. What’s important to note is that the açai berry’s nutritional properties are volatile and can easily be compromised if not properly harvested and processed. The process used to make ’s açai freeze-dried powder is the most effective method of ensuring the nutrient content and antioxidant activity of the açai berry.

THE BLEND. The açai berry is arguably the most important fruit in existence for your health. Experts have referred to açai as the world’s No. 1 superfood. But nature has given us literally thousands of different phytonutrients and antioxidants that are important for our bodies to function optimally. While it may be difficult to get too much of a good thing, it would be unwise to ignore the variety of health benefits that nature’s other fruits have to offer. That is why Pulse features a heart healthy blend of fruits specifically chosen for their ability to nutritionally support cardiovascular health—açai, concord grape, pineapple, apple, prickly pear, pomegranate, elderberry, yumberry, bilberry, blackberry, blueberry, cherry, cranberry, raspberry, aronia, acerola, strawberry, cupuaçu, and camu camu. THE PROCESS. takes great care at each step in production to
ensure the highest quality standards are met. (Harvesting) The process begins with the harvesting
of the açai berry deep within the Amazon River basin. Unlike poachers, who illegally chop down an
entire tree just to harvest a 12-inch section of the tree know as the palmito (or “heart of the palm”),
our conservative harvesting method removes only the açai berries, thereby preserving the life of
the tree and promoting the preservation of the Amazon Rainforest. (Processing) Açai is a powerful
yet delicate fruit, and much of its vitamin and nutrient content can be lost within 24 hours after
harvesting, if not properly cared for. To preserve its full complement of nutrients, our açai is
frozen soon after harvesting. This frozen açai is then processed into our unique freeze-dried
formula, the most effective and nutrient-dense form of açai available. THE SCIENCE. Each step of this advanced and unique process takes place under the watchful eyes of our industry leading product development team and scientific advisors. |
