Organique
Acai was introduced to me during a product presentation few days ago, I heard of
this from tv, radio and read it in a newspaper, I just didn’t mind it because
I’m not interested to know more about that product, all I heard is that the
product contains antioxidants and it’s a good food supplement. For us people who
are busy and never mind about our health, we just seem not to care about the
products around us, because we are not sick and maybe 70% of our body are
healthy.
But for people who got sick already and survive longer in their
burden, they do have lots of knowledge of these products that have big benefit
to our body. Because they are the people who got the time to understand,
research and attend seminars on what kind of food is best to them, others they
approached nutritionist and doctors to know more how they can live long and be
healthy again, but then with the help of product innovators with support of
medical experts and testimony of product users, there’s a way to understand more
about these products, just like the Organique Acai Berry been doing, they are
very active in promoting a product and the acai berry super food that is not
usually under our radar.
I’ve encountered Acai berry before, but not in
this kind of bottled product, I remember that a smoothie store in a mall offered
me a different and new smoothie product, it’s a banana smoothie with acai berry,
the barista convinced me that the acai berry is a good antioxidants, so I give
it a shot and I like the combo flavors, thanks to the banana that help to over
power the bitterness of that acai berry flavor. But all is well, and it doesn’t
hurt when I tried it for the first time.
Flash forward to present day and
here I was invited to learn more about the acai berry and the product Organique
Acai Premium Blend.
Acai
berry grows in an Acai palm tree, this kind of tree can be found only in Brazil
and some regions of Southern America. I asked if the Philippines can grow this
kind of tree and a rep. from Organique Acai said that it can only be found
around the forest of Amazon.
The acai (read as ah-sa-yee and not
a-ka-i ) fruit is 10% skin and 90% seed, it looks so weird to see a kind of
berry fruit that looks like a grape or “duhat” to have lesser fruit meat.
According to studies, that this berry fruit got lots of nutrients, because a
darker the fruit, a better source of antioxidants and with lots of nutrients to
combat aging.
“
Scientists have already classified the acai berry as
one of the world’s number one
super foods. It is really in the berry itself,
the contents of it that allow for wellness and
alertness,” - urologist
and surgeon Dr. Joseph Lee,
The
acai berry is harvested by locals and it’s a good source of their livelihood,
the demand for acai berry was high because of its health benefit and lots of
products are being produced as food. for internal and external applications.
They also mentioned that acai berry is a super food, and it’s a gift
from our God, because it can keep people healthy and the sick people get a
chance to recover by taking an acai berry juice.
Here
in Manila, we can have the Organique Acai Premium Blend for an SRP of PHP2,500
in leading drug stores. Why so expensive??? The process is not so easy, the acai
berry is harvested from the South America and blended in the northern part of
the US. The production to a bottle form is chemical free, and with certification
by the USDA – the highest certification body for organic food. And also,
Organique Acai Premium blend got the highest concentration of acai in the
market.
”Antioxidants from Organique Acai help repair damaged cells
so your body is
replenished and functions better overall. You have more
energy, aging is slowed, your
immune system is strengthened,” says
Catherine Salimbangon, Vice-President for Marketing of
Organique Inc.
The
recommended dose of Organique Acai Premium Blend is 30-60ml per day
depending
on the health conditions of the person.
“If you’re down with something, you can double dose or triple dose it
because you
need more nutrients when you’re sick. It is best taken with an
empty stomach, pure, with
water, with ice or added to your smoothie,” -
Catherine Salimbangon, Vice-President for Marketing of Organique
Inc.
I took a gulp shot of Organique Acai Berry and the taste is like a
raisin or prune. I also learned that they used sugar cane in adding sweet kicks
to combat the bitter flavor of the acai berry.
A dose shot of this can
keep you in good condition.
The bottle once opened, can last for 30
days. Because its good for a one month daily dose only.
Dr. Lee said that
Organique Acai is good for people who are always have stress.
