World!

The benefits from eating healthy are endless. And, according to Dr.

Perricone, who was a guest on the Oprah Winfrey show, mentioned

that some foods can be eaten to help you look and age better! At the top

of the list is the Açai fruit from the Amazon forest. This little

berry is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods in the world.

MonaVie Inc., a network marketing company started in 2004, launched on

January 8, 2005. The company was formed to market a wellness product,

the Açai Amazon Berry, in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico,

Singapore and Australia. With 10 times the antioxidants of grapes and

twice the antioxidants of blueberries, the Brazilian Açai berry is

considered to have the best nutritional value of any fruit on Earth.

MonaVie is a new Açai fruit health drink and opportunity which is

taking the world by storm, and is becoming known as the most beneficial

fruit in the world. In addition to the Açai berry, it's

scientifically formulated with 19 top super fruits from around the world

Oprah doesn't know much about food though and I predict this

designer fruit juice will die a natural death like Mangosteen and

Tahitian Noni are. It's just another food being marketed for a

designer price.

Similarly, I got advertising from a Xango representative in the mail

yesterday. She has the 'nads to put her personal message on BC Cancer

Foundation letterhead. That's fraud, and as Dr. Raph Moss pointed

out, a single test tube study on a cancer cell line doesn't mean it

cures cancer anyway; lots of things kill cancer in a test tube, even

table salt.

So, monavie_wellness2, did you just pass through to spam us with no

intention of following up? If you're indeed still here, let's discuss

Acai on its merits and belay the hype.

Actually, isn't it more important to question Dr. Perricone's

knowledge than Oprah's? I've read a couple of his books, and I

think what he imparts has value to readers ignorant of modern

nutritional principles. And this is important to forwarding

nutrition...if you decide to read his newest book and learn

something valuable, more power to you...it is then well worth the

money and your time. But with my nutritional background, I didn't

find the details of his prior work overly original. And somehow I

am not surprised his chosen a designer fruit to stand behind. He

had quite a supplement and personal care business going, last I

knew.

You're right; Dr. Perricone's splash with Acai is only playing the

health market and I'll be he knows better, but that's the way Oprah

likes it on her shows.

Remember when pine bark extract, pycnogenol, was the latest thing?

Then when we had a small fad run with proanthocyanidins in grape seed

extract, afte that we found that Mt. St. Helen's grapes had more than

5 times the proanthocyanidins than either other grape seed extracts

or pycnogenol. Well, the Acai berry contains proanthocyanidins more

like Mt. St. Helens grapes and the product Protovin made from them,

which you and others with a nutritional background may know about.

That's about it.

I guess my point more clearly made is that many people follow fads

and they want the 'best' or the biggest all the time, losing sight of

the fact that variety of antioxidants, as opposed to overindulging

with a single antioxidant, is important. Also, because glutathione

from cold-processed whey and raw food IS undisputed as the master

antioxidant and it also regenerates other antioxidants, their dose

can be much lower.

I didn't have the pleasure of reading Pericone's opinions because so

many books are incomplete or biased; I look for references that back

up their key points.

In this case, the relevant information on Acai consists of a

smattering of nutrient and antioxidant information and a huge amount

of hype. Simply put, Acai does not have properties that measure up to

the hype. Acai thus represents nothing more than a pleasant addition

to an already antioxidant-rich diet, like Mangosteen, Goji and

Tahitian Noni do, and because we can get already get adequate

antioxidants petty cheap, spending a small ransom on it is simply a

fun thing, not really material to a health regime.

Dr. Perricone sells creams for up to $500 per jar. He is making it hand over

fist.

You have to wonder about the damage this will do to the Amazon! No doubt the

berry will be cultivated to the detriment of the local ecology!
