Navitas Organics Plant based Superfood Organic Acai Berry Powder is the berry nutrition at its best. This one is loaded with antioxidants and healthy fats that support strong skin, hair and nails, this Amazonian “beauty berry" is the perfect addition to your acai bowls, smoothies, & more. Navitas Organics Acai Powder is made from organic acai berries, tree ripened and harvested by hand in Brazil. After ripening on the palm tree, the acai berries are pitted, pureed, flash-pasteurized and freeze-dried into a rich, dark purple powder. All of the nutritional testing is done after processing. The acai berry is a unique fruit that contains high amounts of healthy omega fatty acids, along with fiber, amino acids, and antioxidants. As a result, the freeze-dried fruit pulp is naturally oily and slightly gritty. An acai powder that is fine and dry suggests over-processing and a possible decrease in nutrition. Acai berries have a rich, dark-berry flavor that is reminiscent of a fruity chocolate bar. They’re slightly bitter, thanks to their high levels of antioxidants and low sugar content, and pair well with naturally sweet fruits like bananas, creamy flavors like almond or coconut.
