Let me start this page with the famous quote that’s been traveling the net for some time and cause a storm about Acai berry.
It may seem odd to start this list of superfoods with one you’ve likely never even heard of. But studies have shown that this little berry is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods in the world! - www.oprah.com
For many, television is a source of knowledge. Famous figures like Oprah strive to deliver the best for her viewers, giving out health tips. One of it is regarding the free-radical theory of aging and how to fight age, disease, obesity, and much more. We have two fruits now, Acai and Maqui, both berries, both relatively unheard off, and both claims to be the best. Let the fight begin!
First, a brief fact about both contenders.
| Subject | Acai Berry | Maqui Bery |
| Origin | Amazon, Brazil | Patagonia, Chile |
| ORAC value/gram | 1027 (Freeze Dried) | 2500 (Powder Form) |
| Contains Anthocyanins | Yes | Yes |
| Contains Polyphenols | Yes | Yes |
| Contains Amino Acids | Yes | Yes |
| Contains Vitamins | Yes | Yes |
| Contains Omega 3 | Yes | No |
| Free Trial Available? | Yes | No |
Now with that table comparison, it’s easier to see the strength and weaknesses of both berries. Maqui wins hands down when you compare the ORAC value of both fruits, this is the so-called antioxidants in the fruit.
Maqui doesn’t have Omega 3 in it, but Acai have it. This means that if your daily diet doesn’t comprise of omega 3 intakes, you may be inclined to choose acai over maqui OR you can balance your Omega 3 need with specialized supplements, usually derived from fish oil. The choice depends on your daily lifestyle.
But the killer blow would be the free trial offer. Acai Berry Blast is currently offering their product for free! Read more about it by clicking here. Maqui on the other hand have interesting promotional package and offers.
If it’s me, I’ll try them both. With Acai’s free trial offer, I have nothing to lose to try acai. In the mean time, I can always go and buy Maqui to compare the two and see (or feel) which one suits me the most.
