These small, deeply purple-colored berries are native to Central and South America, especially Brazil where they grow in parts of the Amazonian rain forest. Acai berries have sustained traditional Brazilian and Amazonian populations, including the Caboclo tribe, with nutrients and calories for hundreds of years.

Acai berries have more to offer than just antioxidants — they also supply many other electrolytes, trace minerals, amino acids and even small amounts of essential fatty acids. While there’s some talk about acai berries helping to prevent cancer, not much research has been done to show this is a proven benefit in humans just yet. However, we would expect the consumption of acai berries to help fight cancer just like other berries do (such as blackberries or cherries) since they target the underlying cause of cancer formation, aka high levels of free radical damage and inflammation.
