Raw Organic Maqui Berry Powder, 4oz
Wait until you try our Acai and our new Maqui Berry Powders out!
I have one customer who literally orders like 30 bags of the Acai Powder at a time, and I had another customer tell me how much they love and benefit from the Maqui Powder, so I had to get it. Our new Maqui Powder comes from the same exact supplier as the Acai Powder, and therefore it has the same exact incredible amazing fluffy texture. It’s just a tad more tart than the Acai Berry Powder.
If you all remember back in the day, this is the same Acai Berry Powder that Angela used to eat by the bag lol. Literally, she would eat one bag in a sitting. As crazy as this sounds, one of the reasons why it tastes so unique like this, is because Acai Berries have a unique nutritional profile for a fruit; they are somewhat high in fat and low in sugar. It’s the high fat content that gives it this addictive taste. It’s the juice pulp of the Acai Berry Freeze Dried, and it comes out in this amazing fluffy texture. It tastes berry-like, but almost nutty and creamy at the same time, and it’s simply just Acai.
As seen in the clinical study
here our freeze-drying method is the most effective drying method there is, as it retains most of the potent antioxidants compared to all other methods.
The Maqui and the Acai are both very wild Peruvian fruits from the Jungle. Therefore, they are loaded with a crazy amount of nutrition and antioxidants. In fact, both wild Peruvian berries have 3-4 times more antioxidants than Raspberries, blueberries. Blackberries and strawberries.
In particular, these wild Peruvian Berries are rich in a group of antioxidants called anthocyanins. Anthocyanins give these fruits a deep purple color, and may be responsible for slew of health benefits, which both of theses berries provide.
It’s so much fun, because you can make all of your raw food concoctions an antioxidant-rich deep-purple color with these bad boys. Angela put some on top of her Chia Pudding the other morning, making it like an Acai Berry Fruit bowl. You can turn your smoothie purple, make a purple raw cake, or you can just eat it straight just like Angela lol.
There are a slew of clinical studies showing the benefits of these Anthocyanin antioxidants, which are loaded in both of these berries.
Numerous clinical studies show that Maqui may help fight inflammation, protect against heart disease, support eye health, arthritis, certain lung conditions, promote a healthy gut, and has anti-cancer, and anti-aging effects. For Acai, studies show that it may improve cholesterol levels, have anti-cancer and anti-aging effects, improve heart health, boost brain and cognitive function in a big way, and is just really good for your skins appearance.
People are always looking for foods or product that can be helpful for Diabetes. At the clinical study
here, it concludes that a higher consumption of anthocyanins and anthocyanin-rich fruit was associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. In fact, in a four-week clinical study
here, people who took 162 mg of a maqui berry extract three times daily had significantly reduced blood measures of free radical damage, compared to the control group.
That’s pretty impressive!
People are always looking to support their eye health, and in the clinical study
here, A test-tube study found that Maqui Berry extract prevented light-induced damage in eye cells, suggesting that the fruit may be beneficial for eye health. Furthermore, at the studies
here, and
here, a small 30-day study in 13 people with dry eyes found that 30–60 mg of a concentrated Maqui Berry extract each day increased tear production by roughly 50%.
Acai Berry haș been shown in a slew of studies to boost brain and cognitive function in a big way. Firstly, as seen in the study
here, the many plant compounds in acai could also protect your brain from damage as you age. Furthermore, several studies have shown profound brain protective effects in lab rats.
As seen at the study
here, the antioxidants in acai counteract the damaging effects of inflammation and oxidation in brain cells, which can negatively affect memory and learning. In the study
here, Acai even helped improve memory in aging rats.
One of the ways in which the brain stays healthy is by cleaning up cells that are toxic or no longer working, a process known as autophagy. It makes way for new nerves to form, enhancing communication between brain cells. As you age, this process works less efficiently. However, in lab tests
here, acai extract has helped stimulate this “housekeeping” response in brain cells.
These unique anthocyanins antioxidants are contained in high amounts in both our Maqui and Acai, and they are incredible for your heart, blood pressure, lungs, is great for your gut, and has anti-cancer and anti-aging properties.
In a large study
here, diets high in these deep purple anthocyanins were associated with a 12% reduced risk of high blood pressure. In a Nurses Health Study
here, 93,600 young and middle-aged women found that diets highest in anthocyanins were associated with a 32% reduced risk of heart attacks, compared to those lowest in these antioxidants. Furthermore, in a two-week clinical study
here, smokers who took 2 grams of Maqui Berry extract twice daily had significant decreases in measures of lung inflammation.
here, and
here, are the studies that suggest that plant compounds in maqui and other berries may help reshape your gut microbiota, increasing the number of good bacteria. In the test-tube and animal studies
here, and
here, the type of antioxidants found in Maqui Berry demonstrated potential to reduce cancer cell replication, suppress tumor growth and induce cancer cell death.
Lastly, the Anti-aging effects can be seen at the study
here. Excessive exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun can cause premature aging of your skin. In test-tube studies, Maqui berry extract suppressed damage to cells caused by ultraviolet rays.
