Acai is a palm fruit which grows on the banks of the Amazon river in Brazil. It is small in size - smaller than a grape - and dark purple in colour. Acai consists of around 90% seed, covered in a small amount of pulp. Despite its small size, Acai packs a nutritional punch unlike any other food in the world, with enormous health benefits. Some researchers have called it the # 1 Super Food in the World!
