Acai berry recommended to flush out antioxidants

Anyone wanting to cleanse their body and up their intake of antioxidants may like to try adding Acai Berry to their diet.

Zoe Bingley-Pullin, a superfoods expert at Nutritional Edge, said a better alternative to traditional detoxing is to start the day with a glass of hot water and lemon, but also some Acai berry juice or powder.

“Amazonian Acai berry powder is a powerful antioxidant that supports weight loss, add to some water in the morning and drink before exercising,” she told the Hepburn Advocate.

Ms Bingley-Pullin also suggested tucking in to plenty of super green fruits and vegetables during the day to stabilise blood sugar levels and reduce cravings for fatty foods.

Acai berries come from central America’s swampy areas and are full of Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids, amino acids, fibre and other nutrients, according to SlimmingResources.com.

They could also help in the fight against free radicals which can cause cancer, ageing and other problems.
