When this was published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry not long ago, the study revealed that extracts from acai berries instilled a self-destruct response in leukemia cells at an 86 percent rate.The study conducted at the University of Florida confirmed what many already know; that acai berries are one of the richest fruit sources of antioxidants. Even though caution has been expressed that acai berries have not been proven to prevent leukemia, there is hope and encouragement that acai berries show promise in fighting cancer cells and in keeping our bodies healthier and fit.
