Superfruits a Comparison of Acai Berry and Goji Berry Health Benefits
We have here a recap comparison of the different superfruits available in over the counter stores today. Number one, we will look at the Acai berry, which has become well known, since the launching of the health drink Monavie.
Acai is rated as one of the very best super fruits in antioxidants in the entire world. Containing up to 10 times the antioxidant level of grapes and double what blueberry fruit contains, it is one potent berry when it comes to antioxidants. With up to 30 times the Anthocyanins of red wine, Acai has an impressive resume. Check out Pure3x Designer Energy Drink with Acai
Acai can have a fairly high ORAC score, fresh acai berries (100 grams) can have an excellent ORAC antioxidant score of up to 5500. However, freeze dried acai (100 grams) can have an off the chart ORAC antioxidant score of over 70,000. These are totals, this means you would have to eat 100 grams or about 3 and a half ounces of fresh acai berries to get 5500. Consuming 1 gram of freeze dried acai would give you an ORAC score of 700 per gram.
The amazing benefits of Acai include increased energy, anti-aging, improved sleep and strong heart health, just to name a few.
Plus you have probably seen ads for Acai Berry weight loss products.
All the evidence points to these being a scam. While we know of the value of the Acai berry as an antioxidant and in other health areas, we cannot find any evidence indicating drinking acai berry juice or using acai supplements will produce any kind of noticeable weight loss.

Let us now examine the goji berry and its numerous health benefits.
In traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), goji is renowned as the number 1 adaptogen, meaning it can help the body to adapt to changes and stress.
Some of the most common reported benefits of adaptogens include: better sleep, increased vitality, and enhanced mental clarity and focus. Goji also is a top antioxidant and immune system booster. In Asia, no adaptogen is more revered than goji.
The goji berry can also be called a tonic, which means that it helps to maintain tone in the vital organs. Some herbs are identified in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as liver tonics, and some as kidney tonics. But the goji berry is held in such esteem that it is referred to as a super-tonic, which means it aides in the balance and homeostasis of the whole body.
