Key Ingredient
The acai berry is the crown jewel of the MonaVie Active® blend. When properly freeze-dried, acai boasts an ORAC score higher than that of any other fruit or vegetable tested to date, based on available USDA data. It’s no wonder that for ages the indigenous cultures of the Amazon have revered acai as a source of health and vitality. Recently, modern science has validated the remarkable health benefits of this fruit, and studies have shown acai to contain the following beneficial nutrients:
Antioxidants
Phytonutrients
Amino acids
Vitamins
Trace minerals
Studies have also shown that freeze-dried acai powder boasts antioxidant capacity more than 15 times higher than blueberries and more than 20 times higher than raspberries. The final MonaVie Active blend incorporates the flavors and benefits of the acai berry and other healthful and delicious fruits.
What Makes MonaVie Active® Unique?
The Key Ingredient. MonaVie Active’s acai leverages an exclusive method of preserving the benefits of the acai berry into a freeze-dried powder. Rich in polyphenols (a powerful form of antioxidants), acai is able to neutralize free radicals, thereby lowering oxidative stress. What’s important to note is that the acai berry’s nutritional properties are volatile and can easily be compromised if not properly harvested and processed. The process used to make MonaVie Active’s acai freeze-dried powder is the most effective method of ensuring the nutrient content and antioxidant activity of the acai berry.
The Blend. The acai berry is arguably the most important fruit in existence for your health. Experts have referred to acai as one of nature's top superfoods. But nature has given us literally thousands of different phytonutrients and antioxidants that are important for our bodies to function optimally. While it may be difficult to get too much of a good thing, it would be unwise to ignore the variety of health benefits that nature’s other fruits have to offer. This is why MonaVie Active products include a blend of beneficial fruits from around the world. Together, their synergistic effect reaches far beyond what any single fruit could accomplish.MonaVie® believes in the philosophy of Balance–Variety–Moderation: balance is better than relying upon the contribution of a single ingredient; variety can produce greater benefits than one particular nutrient; and moderation is more powerful than excess.
The Process. MonaVie® takes great care at each step in production to ensure the highest quality standards are met.(Harvesting) The process begins with the harvesting of the acai berry deep within the Amazon River basin. Unlike poachers, who illegally chop down an entire tree just to harvest a 12-inch section of the tree know as the palmito (or “heart of the palm”), our conservative harvesting method removes only the acai berries, thereby preserving the life of the tree and promoting the preservation of the Amazon Rainforest.(Processing) Acai is a powerful yet delicate fruit, and much of its vitamin and nutrient content can be lost within 24 hours after harvesting, if not properly cared for. To preserve its full complement of nutrients, our acai is frozen soon after harvesting. This frozen acai is then processed into our unique freeze-dried formula, the most effective and nutrient-dense form of acai available.(Formulation and bottling) Most companies use a process known as kettle pasteurization. This process involves heating the formula for several hours and can inadvertently “cook out” many of the nutritional properties. However, MonaVie uses flash pasteurization in which the formula is rapidly heated, bottled, and cooled, thereby capturing the fresh flavors, vibrant colors, and beneficial properties of the blend.
The Science. Each step of this advanced and unique process takes place under the watchful eyes of our industry leading product development team and scientific advisors.
