Does acai actually have beneficial health effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antioxidants: The acai berry is very rich in antioxidants like anthocyanins and flavonoids which are reported to reduce free radical formation & to help protect from some cancers. Although there is not reseach- based evidence at this time it is also reported to assist with weight loss. It is used as an oil in some cosmetics.
