Acai Roots - Not Just Another Scam Site

By Travis Van Slooten

In this Acai Roots review, we will not only take a closer look at this brand of acai supplements but we will also get to know what makes for a supplement scam and an inferior line of products. With the many companies touting different health supplements these days, we should be careful that what we are getting is worth the money we are spending. Let's find out how Acai Roots holds up to scrutiny.

As a backgrounder, Acai Roots is company processing and distributing acai products. While they have offices both in the United States and South America, the founders of Acai Roots are Brazilians who have grown up on acai. They source their fresh acai from the Para region in northern Brazil and pride themselves in coming up with only pure acai products.

Supplements

Let's face it, you are mostly concerned with the product itself. If the supplement is enhanced artificially or loaded with fillers, you may be paying for cheap fluff or even ingredients which could be bad for you. Fortunately, the product you get from Acai Roots is grown naturally and organically in Brazil. It is wilf-harvested so no land is destroyed to farm the berries. It also ensures organic quality since there are no chemicals used on the wild trees.

But the harvesting is only half of the process. The manufacturing process is where many companies get greedy and spoil a good product. It is well-known that the only way to lock in the nutrients of the acai berry and still preserve it for shipping is to freeze-dry it. The acai berry does not ship very well. It spoils within about 24 hours of being harvested. Because of this, many people in the United States will never have a fresh acai berry. But a freeze-dried product can contain as much as 50 times the level of antioxidants as a spray-dried product. Spray-drying is the use of heat to remove the liquid from the berry followed by a spraying of maltodextrin on the product. Not only will the supplement lose nutrients, but the product now contains a chemical which is processed as a fatty sugar by the body. Acai Roots promises never to use spray-dried products.

The Business

It is not unusual to find a company that sells good products but turns you off with its questionable business practices. In fact, if you've already made some readings on the acai supplements industry, you would know that scams are a dime a dozen. Some ride on the alleged endorsements of celebrities like Oprah, or famous doctors like Dr. Oz. Other companies promote their brand by touting acai as the key to quick weight loss. While acai may aid in weight loss, it is no miracle worker. The fact that Acai Roots doesn't make this hype just to get people's attention is proof that this company is a decent one. No promises, no hype, just high-quality acai products.

Not only does Acai Roots let their products speak for themselves, they also have a wide array of products to choose from. You can get the standard capsule, but you also have a choice of smoothies and frozen pulp. Regardless of which product you choose, Acai Roots backs it completely.

The Company behind Acai Roots

Now that we've established that Acai Roots has superior products and sound business practices, let's see how this company also gives back to the environment and to the locals that they employ as workers. Most businesses are only concerned of the profit that they will get, but the founders of Acai Roots are also involved in activities that promote social responsibility. They get many of the natives in the Amazon rainforests as berry-pickers so that they won't need to cut down trees for a living. Not only does this gesture protect the environment, it also gives the people a sustained source of income. Acai Roots also has projects that give a hand to the poorest in Brazil.

In a nutshell, what does Acai Roots bring to the table? It is first and foremost a company that produces a complete line of high-quality pure acai supplements. Secondly, it's also a business that doesn't make any exaggerated claims or resort to gimmicks and false endorsements. You don't see Acai Roots offering any free trials or making specific references to the acai's weight loss effects. Lastly, Acai Roots is a socially-responsible company that strives to make things better not only for the business but also for the community and environment as well. This Acai Roots review should put all doubts about this brand of acai supplements to rest. - 17269
