Acai, pronounced “AH-sigh-EE”, is a powerful little berry. It is well known for its ability to help prevent or stop cell damage caused by oxidants. It also has loads of essential fatty acids and dietary fibre. If you hit the gym after work, these tiny purple berries can speed up digestion and give you a boost of energy.
