Various research studies have shown that supplements with beta sitosterol of which the acai berry is very rich in can significantly lower one´s heart disease risk.

2. Acai speeds up metabolism thereby ensuring proper functioning of our bodily system.

3. One of acai´s antioxidants is anthocyanin which promotes good cardiovascular health. Anthocyanins play a major role in the proper functioning of blood vessels.
