Brazilian Superfruit Found To Kill Cancer Cells

A recently completed University of Florida study has added to the buzz surrounding the Brazilian acai berry. The study is one of the first to research the many claims attributed to the acai fruit.

In it’s study, six different chemical extracts were made from acai berry pulp, and each extract was prepared in seven concentrations.

At least 4 of the extracts killed a great many cancer cells when applied for 24 hours or more. Anywhere from 35 percent to 86 percent of the cancer cells were destroyed, depending on the particular extract and concentration.

According to Stephen Talcott, an assistant professor with UF’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, the study showed extracts from acai berries triggered a self-destruct response (apoptosis) in up to 86 percent of leukemia cells tested

Acai Berry Colon Cleanse

Most people have found that using Acai Berry as a colon cleanser is far more effective than other colon cleansing products. Plus, it is believed that using this colon cleanse diet is also a very effective method of losing weight.

Most lean individuals would think that fat people became big because they are too lazy to move or exercise. This is not true at all times. Experts believe that people also get fat because of life stress. The exhaustive pressures of kids, work or school is a factor why people can gain weight. Who wants to waste their energy on a treadmill or a hill stroll if you have tons of paper work? For instance, a woman who would weigh 125 lbs during her entire single life could balloon up to 200 lbs after their first baby.

A new diet for weight loss and colon cleanse is popular today. After its feature in the Oprah Winfrey Show co hosted by Dr. Oz, it gained popularity among colon cleansers. Acai berry is a “super food” from the rainforest of Amazon that is believed to be more effective than pomegranate or red wine in detoxification. It is also effective in losing weight because it was proven to reduce food craving and hunger by raising the energy level of the body. Now, acai berries are one of the most nutritious foods in the world.
