You’ve probably heard of acai berries (pronounced ah-sigh-ee), but do you know much about their benefits? Acai berries have some great qualities for our health and are often referred to as a ‘superfood’.

Here at F&F, we have a range of products with acai including drinks, makeup, skin care, serums, oils and powders. Acai is filled with antioxidants, making it a powerful product for potential health benefits.

 

We’ve recently introduced a new Acai Skin Active liquid to F&F by Amazonia. This Acai Liquid has been scientifically tested to show antioxidants which may help support collagen and reduce free radical damage. The fermented organic Acai delivers 12 billion probiotics per serve, making it great for your overall health. The drink also contains no gluten, dairy, sugar, additives, preservatives or GMO’s. We stock the 500ml bottle, and this allows for 16 serves with a serving size of 30ml.

Please note: Once opened, it needs to be refrigerated.

If you’re wondering how you use it, you can use this great tasting superfood drink 2 different ways. You can take one shot (30ml) daily by itself, or you can dilute it in juice, water, smoothie or even a smoothie bowl.*
