Studies have shown that this little berry is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods in the world! Açaí (ah-sigh-ee) is the high-energy berry of a special Amazon palm tree. Harvested in the rainforests of Brazil, açaí tastes like a vibrant blend of berries and chocolate. Hidden within its royal purple pigment is the magic that makes it nature's perfect energy fruit. Açaí is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Although açaí may not be available in your local supermarket, you can find it in several health food and gourmet stores (often in juice form). A new product featuring the unsweetened pulp is now also available, and I highly recommend that you choose this form of açaí. |

Very popular in Brazil, Guarana-the seed of the bush Paulina Cupana that is naturally encountered
in the Amazon forest is
sacred among the Native Indian populations. The Indians used Guarana
mainly as an aphrodisiac and as the main source of
energy in times of war and hunting. Guarana
contains the
stimulant alkaloid guaranine. Scientific studies indicate that this natural bio-stimuland
intensifies the body's vitality. The miracle
seed is a regulator of the cardiac rhythm, prevents
arteriosclerosis and is effective in the treatment of fatigue, depression, migraines and
gastrointestinal problems. |
