I was researching the benefits of human consumption of Acai and they mentioned the obromine, also found on chocolate. So don’t let your dog eat it if you have it! just a heads up. But for humans, knock yourself out! Toy Fox

“Acai has been consumed by parrots, toucans, macaw, and other exotic birds in the Amazon basin but there is no tested proof of Acai berry effects on animals like dogs. We all know that Acai has amazing antioxidants properties which like humans dogs cannot produce concentration of antioxidants by themselves. Plus Acai has proven very effective against arthritis a very common disease among dogs. Dogs can also be a victim of free radicals which badly affect their bodies. Literary it seems that Acai can help your pet to get rid of all the diseases but yet Acai is not tested as a food for dogs.

Other then treating your pet juice with Acai there is other Oxyfresh antioxidants for dogs Formula which include wheat sprout complex, selenium, whey protein, barley grass powder, and alfalfa grass powder. It is to be noted that water foods are better than hard foods for your dogs as they can easily absorb the nutrients from the water food.”

Acai berry has always been an interesting subject for many health and food researchers. Though manufacturers of different Acai claim that their Acai product comes with a lot of health and medical benefits but the fact is that very few of these claims are scientifically proven.

Dr. Susanne Talcott; an assistant professor with the nutrition and food science department of Texas A&M University along with his husband has also done some research on Acai berries. She says that the most important aspect of Acai berry is that it is easily absorbed by the body and there is no fear that its health benefits will be wasted as a solid; this absorption quality can also make the body to absorb the antioxidants derived from Acai but no one is really tested in this area. Dr. Talcott also concluded that Acai berry is low in sugar and its taste is as good as a combination of red wine and chocolate. During her research on Acai she also noted that Acai can perform some good activities against cancer cells. Marketers of Acai claim it as a high antioxidant fruit and Dr. Scott was able to observe that the Antioxidant level of people who were participating in her research program when given a single serving of Acai showed an increase in their antioxidant levels. She also noted that both Acai pulp and Acai juice showed significant absorption of antioxidant anthocyanins into the blood and antioxidant effects of her cooperators.

Dr. Talcott says that though Acai berry is good for health but many of its health benefits are still to be proven and there is still a question mark on the recommended consumption quantity of Acai; but the couple hopes that future studies will reveal the facts.
