Açaí berries grow high in the palm-like Açaí trees and have been used by the indigenous tribes of the Amazon for thousands of years as a source of nourishment. Rich in caffeine, Guaraná is also a berry and is probably the first energy drink ever - the plant is named for the Guarani tribe in the Amazon, who used the seeds to brew a drink long before the colonization of Brazil. Guaraná syrup is commonly combined with Açaí in bowls and is the food of choice for before hitting the gym by people who enjoy a healthy lifestyle. It has twice as much caffeine than a coffee bean, which makes Guaraná a rich source of antioxidants with properties that speed up metabolism to burn fat quicker.

Our 100% bio Açaí with Guaraná can be made into delicious smoothies or into a glorious superfood bowl. For a delightful smoothie, just add 50ml of liquid for every 100g of pulp. And for a healthy bowl, we suggest adding one banana and a sip of apple juice to 200g of frozen açaí com guaraná pulp.

Health benefits

Thanks to its high concentration of antioxidants — with a focus on anthocyanins, responsible for its purplish color — açaí reduces the harmful action of free radicals that accelerate cell wear throughout the body.

Açaí offers a good dose of fiber, which improves intestinal transit and bowel function. A serving of 100 grams of frozen açaí pulp contains 2.6 grams of fiber.

In a controlled study conducted at the Federal University of Pará, researchers found that a group that regularly ingested açaí benefited from a drop in LDL, the bad cholesterol, which did not happen in the control group. The laurels in this case go to phytosterols and anthocyanins. The first competes with cholesterol during digestion, reducing the absorption of harmful molecules. The second fights LDL oxidation, which prevents the formation of plaque in blood vessels.

Besides fighting bad cholesterol Açaí also has substances that fight atherosclerosis, help regulate high blood pressure and improve blood circulation, according to a study by the European Atherosclerosis Society.

According to researchers at the Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases at Montana State University, in the United States, açaí contains a substance called arabinogalactan, which stimulates the action of the body's defense cells, improving its effectiveness.

Preventing degenerative diseases: its antioxidant substances fight the oxidative stress produced by free radicals and reduce the accumulation of a protein called beta-amyloid, two factors that are directly linked to this type of illness.

The high concentration of calcium in Açaí is also beneficial to the bones and skeleton, as the mineral serves as a raw material for the construction and constant renewal of bones, preventing them from becoming weak. Furthermore, Açaí is also a source of potassium, another nutrient that helps keep the skeleton strong.
