Acai superfruit

[Glacier]

Has anybody used this (dark purple variety) for a significant periods of time and obtained any worthwhile results, seems it does have some beneficial antioxidant activity.

I had some interest in it a while back and started drinking some juice pretty regularly (usually twice daily). I don't think it made any miracles happen to me, but I seemed to be healthy the time I was drinking it. Supposedly, it is rich in Omega fatty acids, antioxidants - anthocyanins and flavonoids, vitamins, and other good nutrients. I think with anything, however, you need to be sure what you are getting is the real thing. Do some research before you buy.

I found a couple sources with more info about the acai fruit:
