Acai's antioxidant composition
Rich in antioxidants: The acai berry contains antioxidants such as ferulic acid and epicatechin. Laboratory research indicates that its antioxidant content is higher than that of many other berries, such as cranberry, raspberry, blackberry, strawberry or blueberry.
Usage and Effects: When consumed as a dietary supplement, juice or whole food, acai may offer significant antioxidant benefits, helping to reduce damage caused by excessive free radical production.

Characteristics of Acai Oil
Acai oil is a fluid, oily liquid, yellow to green in color, with a sweet aroma reminiscent of green olives. For optimum preservation, store in a cool place, away from light and heat, preferably in an amber bottle.

Potential benefits for skin and hair
Acai oil, rich in polyphenolic compounds, may act as an effective antioxidant, protecting the skin against free radical damage and helping to prevent premature ageing. It may also be beneficial for hair, helping to prevent the deterioration of capillary fibers, the appearance of white hair and hair loss, while providing nutrition and elasticity to the skin.
