It is known to lower bad cholesterol and raise good cholesterol as well as being in a unique class of antioxidants.

Acai Berries are also heart health and may benefit your digestive tract because of its unique blend of monounsaturated fats,fiber and phytosterols.



Mediterranean populations also report a lower incident of heart attacks and disease and many speculate that it is due to a diet high in acai berry since acai berry has a fatty acid ratio that resembles the very popular and health olive oil.
