| Nature's #1 Superfood - The Acai Berry |
 The Acai Berry is one of the nutritious foods in the world. The magic of this perfect fruit is hidden in its dark purple color.
Acai contains a remarkable concentration of antioxidants, with 57% more than pomegranates. The powerful antioxidant berry helps slow down aging and age related diseases.
Acai also provides a synergy of monounsaturated (healthy) fats Omegas 3, 6 and 9 along with dietary fiber and phytosterols which help promote cardiovascular and digestive health.
This powerful berry also provides an almost complete essential amino acid profile with valuable trace minerals, vital to proper muscle contraction and regeneration.

| Why we use Aseptic packaging |
|
If you have kids you have probably seen a juice box or two. You may not have known this was aseptic packaging, a package that is revolutionary and environmentally friendly. Aseptic packaging isn't just for juice boxes anymore! Many products are using aseptic packaging including soups, soy drinks and even wine.
We chose to use aseptic packaging for several reasons. It locks out air and light and it seals in nutrients and flavor. It is also environmentally friendly. It uses less energy to manufacture, fill, ship and store than virtually any other package.
Aseptic packaging has been called the packaging of the future. The Institute of Food Technologists called aseptic packaging 'the most significant food science innovation of the last 50 years.' It was also the only package ever to win the prestigious Presidential Award for Sustainable Development.
