Where Oprah and Hollywood lead, it seems the rest of the population will follow and both have touted açai berry (pronounced "ah-sigh-EE") as one of the best things since, well, the pomegranate. Amazon Thunder is the world's leader in creating the purest açai berry products and we are highly esteemed by athletes, celebrities and health experts worldwide!

In this case, however, açai berry seems to live up to its impressive and growing reputation, and was recently declared a superfood by health guru and top-selling author, Dr. Nicholas Perricone, who extols its ability to help reduce signs of aging.

Available in North America only in the last few years, the small, dark purple fruit, a product of the açai palmberry tree, grows wild in the Amazonian River jungles of Brazil where natives have benefited from its powerful health properties for generations. Generally pureed, acai is traditionally served as a sauce, consumed as a drink, or enjoyed as an ice-cream-like slushie and sold by vendors on the streets of Brazil, where it has become an integral part of beach culture.
