Today’s fast-paced lifestyle leaves us no room to exercise or grab an apple from the fruit stand. So we turn to exotic concoctions for nutrients and detoxification, like some magic potion that can breathe life into our ailing, aging bodies. This has paved the way for acai and goji berry products to thrive on the market, sometimes even scamming health-conscious citizens.

Acai and goji possess very similar characteristics. Among their health benefits are:

•    They strengthen the heart and prevent cardiovascular diseases
•    They alleviate insomnia and increase mental alertness
•    They can reverse sexual dysfunction
•    They boost the immune system
•    They are very effective as weight loss aids
•    They clear the body of toxins
•    They contain essential amino acids, important vitamins, antioxidants, and trace minerals
•    They have anti-inflammatory sterols and essential fatty acids such as Omega and linoleic acids

How are they different?

Acai contains antioxidants more than any other fruit in the world. Antioxidants prevent the formation of free radicals in our bodies – free radicals that cause cell deterioration that leads to aging and disease. Unlike goji juice, acai antioxidants are predominantly anthocyanins. These types of antioxidants can help lower the risk of degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, atherosclerosis, diabetes and osteoporosis.

Acai could be nature’s answer to cancer. Although still unproven, studies on the destructive effects of acai on cancer cells have been promising. Oleic acid in acai helps prevent the formation of the oncogene, a gene that turns healthy cells into cancer cells. When it comes to anti-cancer potential, no other fruit comes close to the acai berry.

While goji juice and other fruit drinks out there promise lots of vitamins and minerals, the acai berry offers the most complete spectrum of health benefits. Acai is good for the heart, brain, digestive system, bones, muscles, and even hair and skin.

Best of all, acai berries taste better than goji berries. Goji is quite bitter, while acai has a sweet berry taste with a hint of chocolate. When choosing between acai and goji berry products, trust your palate.
