The freeze drying
process retains all the nutritional properties of acai through reducing
the pulp into a fine powder at very low temperatures. Unlike extracts,
freeze dried acai completely captures the unique synergy of nutritional
benefits found in acai and is completely pure with no carrying agents.
We guarantee our freeze dried powder to be the very best quality
and we back this up fully with our nutritional analysis. It is simply
pure acai with nothing added and is excellent as a versatile ingredient.
Oxygen
Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is a unit value assigned
by researchers to determine the antioxidant value and
potency of a given food. Foods with a high ORAC value
are beneficial to the body by increasing plasma antioxidant
levels, therefore helping protect the cells from damage
by oxygen radicals.
Research
suggests that the average person only gets about 1200
ORAC unit servings of fruit and vegetables daily. However
3000+ ORAC units are required on a daily basis to have
a significant impact on plasma and tissue antioxidant
capacity.
Pulpa
Freeze Dried powder is independently tested as having
extremely high ORAC levels with a 3g teaspoon providing
just under 1500 units and a two teaspoon serving 3000
units. This comes from the highest quality acai with
nothing added.
