Perfect Acai supports the sustainability of the Amazon rainforest and the natives who live there. Sustainable harvesting is so much better than clearing.

The rainforest of the Amazon occupies over 5.5 million square kilometers and is the largest collection of living plant and animal species in the world. It is home to more than one-third of the world's species of animal and plant life, and has been called the "Lungs of the Planet" because it produces around 20% of the worlds oxygen. For thousands of years, the natural resources of the Amazon have provided a wealth of resources for the survival and wellbeing of mankind. In fact, there are thousands of edible fruits and medicinal plants hidden throughout the Amazon rainforest. However, the rainforest is being progressively logged for timber to provide income for the natives and the rainforest turned into unproductive cattle grazing areas. This can affect the whole world in terms of oxygen production, carbon storage and global warming. Since 1970 about 700,000 square kilometres have been cleared.

Perfect Acai encourages sustainable use of the Amazon rainforest, rather than clearing. Perfect Acai uses only 100% Fair Trade Acai. Your purchase of Perfect Acai ensures the indigenous people of the Amazon can make a living wage by harvesting Acai. Harvesting free trade organic Acai (which does not harm the Acai Palm Tree) is more profitable than chopping down the Acai trees for lumber, so the more people who buy Acai, the more trees we can save in the Amazon Rainforest. This protects the biodiversity of the rainforest and creates sustainable usage.

Because Acai only grows in rainforests and oxidises within 24 hours of being picked, most people in the world will never get a chance to experience it. The only way to get the Acai antioxidant benefit berry is in dehydrated or freeze dried form.

Perfect Acai is proud to be made exclusively with Sambazon Freeze Dried Acai Powder. Sambazon is the world leader in Acai production and is the only certified Fair Trade Acai in the world. Sustainability is at the core of Sambazon's business model – they want to sustain the Amazon rainforest, sustain the supply of Acai and sustain the livelihood of the indigenous people of the Amazon rainforest.

Each capsule of Perfect Acai is filled with 500 mg of whole food Acai. The Acai is freeze dried within 24 hours of being picked from the trees of the Amazon. The freeze drying technique is patented and uses no drying agents. This ensures that the wonderful and unique health properties of the Acai berry are fully captured.

Perfect Acai is pure Acai in a dehydrated form. In fact, just 2 capsules of Perfect Acai is equal to 6 grams of fresh Acai fruit. Each capsule of Perfect Acai contains 500mg of Acai superfood - certified organic and certified Fair Trade. In addition, Perfect Acai™ comes in a super sized 120 capsule bottle - twice the size of most Acai supplements. Indigenous people of the Amazon Rainforest make more money harvesting organic Brazilian Acai than chopping down trees for lumber. The more Acai we eat the more incentive Amazon locals have to maintain the natural trees, plants and habitats of the Amazon Rainforest!

Perfect Acai can assist your body with its incredible antioxidant protection, as it captures the entire nutritional profile of the whole organic acai berry. At the same time you are helping your body you are also helping the planet – that has got to make you feel good!
