Key Ingredient
The acai berry is the crown jewel of the MonaVie Original® blend. When properly
freeze-dried, acai boasts an ORAC score higher than that of any other fruit or
vegetable tested to date, based on available USDA data. It’s no wonder that for
ages the indigenous cultures of the Amazon have revered acai as a source of
health and vitality. Recently, modern science has validated the remarkable
health benefits of this fruit, and studies have shown acai to contain the
following beneficial nutrients:
- Antioxidants
- Phytonutrients
- Amino acids
- Vitamins
- Trace minerals
Studies have also shown that freeze-dried acai powder boasts antioxidant
capacity more than 15 times higher than blueberries and more than 20 times
higher than raspberries. The final MonaVie Original® blend incorporates the
flavors and benefits of the
acai berry and other healthful and delicious fruits.
What Makes MonaVie Original® Unique?
The
Key Ingredient. MonaVie Original®’s acai leverages an exclusive method
of preserving the benefits of the acai berry into a freeze-dried powder. Rich in
polyphenols (a powerful form of antioxidants), acai is able to neutralize free
radicals, thereby lowering oxidative stress. What’s important to note is that
the acai berry’s nutritional properties are volatile and can easily be
compromised if not properly harvested and processed. The process used to make
MonaVie™ Original’s acai freeze-dried powder is the most effective method of
ensuring the nutrient content and antioxidant activity of the acai berry.
 The Blend. The acai berry is arguably the most important fruit in
existence for your health. Experts have referred to acai as one of nature's top
superfoods. But nature has given us literally thousands of different
phytonutrients and antioxidants that are important for our bodies to function
optimally. While it may be difficult to get too much of a good thing, it would
be unwise to ignore the variety of health benefits that nature’s other fruits
have to offer. This is why MonaVie Original® products include a blend of
beneficial fruits from around the world. Together, their synergistic effect
reaches far beyond what any single fruit could accomplish.
MonaVie® believes in the philosophy of Balance–Variety–Moderation: balance is
better than relying upon the contribution of a single ingredient; variety can
produce greater benefits than one particular nutrient; and moderation is more
powerful than excess.
The Process. MonaVie® takes great care at each step in production to
ensure the highest quality standards are met.
(Harvesting) The process begins with the harvesting of the acai berry
deep within the Amazon River basin. Unlike poachers, who illegally chop down
an entire tree just to harvest a 12-inch section of the tree know as the
palmito (or “heart of the palm”), our conservative harvesting method removes
only the acai berries, thereby preserving the life of the tree and promoting
the preservation of the Amazon Rainforest.
(Processing) Acai is a powerful yet delicate fruit, and much of its vitamin
and nutrient content can be lost within 24 hours after harvesting, if not
properly cared for. To preserve its full complement of nutrients, our acai
is frozen soon after harvesting. This frozen acai is then processed into our
unique freeze-dried formula, the most effective and nutrient-dense form of
acai available.
(Formulation and bottling) Most companies use a process known as kettle
pasteurization. This process involves heating the formula for several hours
and can inadvertently “cook out” many of the nutritional properties.
However, MonaVie® uses flash pasteurization in which the formula is rapidly
heated, bottled, and cooled, thereby capturing the fresh flavors, vibrant
colors, and beneficial properties of the blend.
The Science.
Each step of this advanced and unique process takes place under the watchful
eyes of our industry leading product development team and scientific advisors.
