San Diego, CA (PRWEB) November 18, 2008
Acai Roots (http://www. acairoots. com), a leading supplier of 100% natural acai (ah-SIGH-ee) pulp products, launches their latest acai innovations, PROX and AX3 delicious juice smoothies. The company's shelf stable smoothie line is the first in the world to combine the healthy benefits of the acai berry with natural plant sterols. Natural plant sterols are clinically proven to promote healthy cholesterol management (when already within normal range). Grown atop Amazon River palm trees, the acai berry is considered nature's No. 1 Superfood based on its great amount of antioxidants, healthy essential omegas, fibers and protein.
The PROX smoothie is a protein-rich, delicious and healthy tropical blend of acai, pineapple, coconut and whey protein. AX3 is a tasty juice smoothie with the powerful triple antioxidant combination of acai, pomegranate and blueberry. This new berry juice smoothie provides a nice energy and antioxidant boost, without the typical crash from energy drinks.
An Acai Roots PROX smoothie delivers about 4,000 ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) units per 10 fl. oz. (300 ml). The AX3 provides about 4000 ORAC units per 10 fl. oz. (300 ml). With the addition of natural plant sterols, the drink supplements may help a person whose cholesterol is already in normal range. The sterols block the absorption of cholesterol from foods and the cholesterol produced by your body.
"Our ready-to-drink, delicious smoothies provide a natural sustained energy boost," states Igor Pereira, Acai Roots CEO. "With 7 grams of whey protein, PROX is an ideal meal replacement for the health conscious. Our AX3 is a triple powerhouse of antioxidants. Since no refrigeration is necessary, transporting, distribution and storage are perfectly streamlined."
Acai Roots' convenient juice smoothies are available at select Whole Foods, Henry's Marketplace, Mother's Market and many other health food and convenience stores nationwide as well as online at http://www. acairoots. com (http://www. acairoots. com).
