Acai Juice

I’m about to begin chemo. I am a generally health conscious person and although “alternative” therapies are ignored by doctors- I still want to drink 2 oz of acai juice daily to help keep my energy up. My doc is opposed to it. Said there aren’t enough studies and it could cause an adverse reaction to the chemo…??

“I am very much health conscious just like you. That is the best way to livelong and free of pain, but now when you are on undergoing chemotherapy let me tell you that chemotherapy- a medicated way to treat cancer although is not really effective still is it used by physicians. In chemotherapy cancer patient’s body is given doses of medicines that destroy delicate DNA; DNA is most vulnerable during replication of cancer cells, hence, their target is rapidly dividing cancer cells which also means the chemo will destroy other rapidly dividing cells, like blood cells which they just monitor. You will hurt your body when you are trying to help it out. So, Chemo is basically a dose of free radicals and free radicals destroy the DNA and Antioxidants combat free radicals, that is why we should eat them and Acai is highest in antioxidants…because on other side damaged DNA can cause you cancer.

Your treatment for cancer with Chemotherapy depends if your body is not interfering with the free radicals. Acai is one of the strongest antioxidants; it will make the chemo less effective by killing free radicals. So this is betters that you take Acai regularly after you are done with your chemo. Then you can drink the Acai juice and whatever else energy drink you want. And when you are free of cancer that you will be, then do indulge it daily to help prevent any new DNA damage that could lead to cancer. I hope I have helped you out…”

I’m finding conflicting information - one source says the berries lose potency soon after harvest, so the juice is not very effective.. Is this true? Does anybody have positive/negative experiences? I’m trying to boost my energy and immune system. haha- still conflicting advice! but, thanks guys, i appreciate the feedback! bee pollen, ey? hm. will have to look into that.

“Yes, Acai berries die soon after harvesting, and that’s why any Acai juice company that uses even best quality will only get the berries that are freeze-dried or at least quickly frozen to maintain as much of the health benefits as possible. As all Acai products are prepared from theses freeze-dried Acai berries, both the Acai juice and the Acai pills should have about the same nutrients, but the Acai juice will have a higher quantity of the nutrients per dose.

Some people do prefer the Acai capsules or Acai pills either as they don’t like the taste or they prefer the convenience of the pills over the juice. Acai juice or Acai pills, most of the time a personal preference. There are lot of customers that really like Acai because of the great antioxidant benefits which help the immune system among other things. They take it because it helps them to not get sick and fight against diseases. A few people have said that they like the energy they get from Acai juice or pills, but most people get much more energy from other nutrients like Bee Pollen, Ginseng, or a dozen other products.”

The acai berry and pomegranate fruits are considered to be two of the superfruits on the planet. Both fruits provide high level of antioxidants and nutrients. Acai berry is relatively new to the world as compare to the pomegranate history, but Acai berry has proved to be a great source of energy as compared to pomegranate. The amount of antioxidants contained in Acai berry fruit are more than provided by pomegranate, but pomegranate still is a very close competitor of the Acai fruit. Acai juice is full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential omegas. The Acai berry’s pulp also is a concentration of antioxidants; its helps to combat premature aging, with 10-30 times the anthocyanins (purple colored antioxidants) of red wine. Acai berry fruit has an almost perfect essential amino acid complex in conjunction with valuable trace minerals vital to proper muscle contraction and regeneration. On the other hand like Acai juice, pomegranate juice also fights well against the cancer cells and stops premature aging.

Though both fruits come with a lot of health benefits but the fact is that they lost their nutritional value during processing. Acai juice comes with a blend of other juices like pomegranate or you can mix the Acai pulp with the pomegranate juice to prepare a juice of your own favorite taste.

The Acai fruits deteriorate soon after their harvesting, so outside the tree’s growing area the fruit is generally only available as Acai juice or Acai fruit pulp that has been frozen, dried, or freeze dried. Recently it has been shown that the high ORAC antioxidant value of the Acai fruit was greatly enhanced when a freeze-drying process was utilized to preserve the fruit pulp compared to other drying methods which can cause the Acai fruit to lose its many of nutrients.

Unfortunately most of the Acai products in the market do not give the full health benefits of Acai fruit. Sometimes they lack in one nutrient and at the same time high in other nutrient.
