> Will acai cure cancer? We can't say for certain. All we know is that acai

>
> Can you eat the berries that make acai directly?
>
> Strangely enough, no. It is not recommended that one just pluck the
> berries from the tree and start snacking. The berries are harvested and
> processed, and the acai is extracted from the pulp of the berry and sold
> in stores all over South America. It is said that beverages containing
> acai are more popular than milk in the southern hemisphere. That's because
> South Americans know they are getting a pure, healthy drink that benefits
> their alertness and well-being, and it gets them through the day.
>
> Where do you get acai?
>
> Enter acai into Internet search and you are bound to find hundreds of
> online shops selling acai in various forms - drinks, powders, and
> capsules. This wonder supplement is in very high demand, but when you shop
> for acai it is important to know whether or not you are getting the purest
> extracts of acai available, directly from the Amazon Rainforest. Check the

>
> Does acai cause any side effects?
>
> Current research indicates no known side effects to taking acai in any
> form. Though acai has been around for ages, it is still quite new to the
> United States, and no doubt is still being observed by health
> professionals. However, the testimony of the overall health of the
> Amazonian people speaks well for this little fruit with big potential.
