With all of the research that has been done recently on the health benefits of chocolate, most of us thought that we had finally found nirvana! Now research has revealed a little purple fruit called acai berry. This berry tastes great, looks beautiful and has so many positive healthy perks that I can’t even begin to list them all SOOOOOOOO I now propose the question, can it make chocolate even better? I mean strawberries love chocolate, blueberries love chocolate, oranges love chocolate and we all know how good those fruits are for you. If you marry the acai berry to pure chocolate will you die and go to heaven?

A New Superfood

The Acai berry has gained rapid popularity in recent years as the latest in a line of “super-food” discoveries. This means that it is a food high in antioxidants and is said to to be able to help with weight loss, detoxification, improved digestion and increased energy levels. It is produced and marketed in a number of ways including juices, smoothies, pills and as the fruit itself. The berry is harvested from the acai palm which mainly grows in the flood plains and swamps of Central and South America. With the growing popularity of the fruit and fruit products many trees are now being grown specifically to meet the demand for the berry.
