Many people are joining those lucky individuals who have been enjoying the benefits of acai fruit and the acai diet. The acai fruit has been confirmed as the world’s no. 1 super food, and it is thought to have benefits ranging from the reduction in signs of premature ageing to the increased ability to combat cancer. Impressive stuff!

The best way to get acai into your home is with acai juice. This is not just the best way because it is more convenient to drink acai juice than it is to eat the raw fruit, but also because unless you move to Brazil it is simply not possible to make the acai berry last long enough to survive the journey. Acai juice captures the goodness of the berry at — or very near to — the time of harvesting.

So it is with acai juices like Amazon Thunder, well known to be the market leader in terms of quality and price.

Definitely not the case, though, with Monavie. Monavie acai juice doesn’t contain any real acai, you see. You would have thought that this fairly major problem would have caused some issues when marketing the Monavie product range, but fortunately the acai management team engaged in what can only be described as creative marketing.

My advice? Stay away from the Monavie acai juice products.
