Product Information If you think you know all there is about acai berries, think again. Most of the acai berry products on the market barely contain any acai berry pulp, but acai berry powder. Most of the acai berry is a seed. The vital ingredients are in the pulp. It takes a lot of pulp – about 7 grams – to make just one gram of acai berry freeze-dried powder. In order to cut costs, many acai berry products are filled up to 60% with Maltodextrin, a type of low-calorie sugar. Although low in calories, Maltodextrin does not contain the antioxidants, healthy fats or fiber of real acai berry pulp powder. Organic Acai Berry capsules promote glowing skin and hair. It’s been called the Viagra of the Amazon. It also aids the body’s immune system, helping to prevent illness. The Amazon rainforest is not destroyed for berry orchards to make these capsules for your health. What We Think What’s not to love about acai berry capsules? We are proud to offer a source of freeze-dried pure pulp powder that has not been diluted with additives or sugars. The acai berries are freeze dried within 18 hours of being harvested from the rainforest.
This is a Fair Trade product. These local workers get paid proper wages, meaning they have a reason to preserve their land. Related Image The Acai Berry Acai is a fruit that grows on the Acai Palm Trees in the Amazon rainforest of Brazil. Antioxidants Acai Berry is packed with antioxidants. What is the difference between Freeze Dried and Spray Dried Acai? The first problem with the spray dried process is that it requires heating the acai to very high temperatures. These high temperatures remove many of the nutrients in the acai. The second problem is that the spray dried process involves using a carrier agent, such as Maltodextrin, to dry the acai. In the end, 40% of the "acai powder" is actually Maltodextrin.
Normally, you will not find Maltodextrin listed as an ingredient on the label. Because it is added during the manufacturing process, it technically does not need to be listed as an ingredient, due to a loophole in the FDA labeling laws. The better freeze dried process that Earthfruits uses is low heat, does not introduce carry-agents, and allows all the nutrients of the acai berry to remain intact. It takes about 7 grams of acai pulp to make 1 gram of acai freeze-dried powder. 100 grams of fresh acai fruit has an impressive antioxidant rating of 5,500 ORAC score, but 100 grams of high quality freeze-dried Earthfruits acai powder has an amazing ORAC score of 70,000. Therefore, freeze-drying allows the acai fruit to retain its taste, color, and, most importantly, the nutritional content.
