Acai berries are small, dark purple fruits that come from acai palm trees native to Central and South America. These berries have become popular in recent years due to their high nutritional value and antioxidant properties. They contain large amounts of vitamins (such as C and E), minerals, fiber, and heart-healthy fats. Acai berries are often used in juices, smoothies, supplements or as an ingredient in various food products due to their potential health benefits.
