26 REASONS TO DRINK MONA.VIE ACAI BERRY COMPLEX
The synergistic effect of Acai Berry Complex is very pronounced. Antioxidants shouldn't  be taken in ones and twos. The body cannot produce any minerals. The body also needs to take in enzymes, amino acids, polysaccharides, flavonoids (phenol-protectors) and fatty acids. Many of these are essential, meaning the body cannot produce them; therefore, they must be taken in from the diet. This ABC grouping of delicious nutrients gives new meaning to the word..."TEAMWORK" for our community of Long Island and New York City residents and Long Island and New York City businesses.

The following key relates to the types of fruits that pertain to each of the 26 reasons as noted: Acai Berry-A; Pomegranate-P; Cranberry-C; Grape-G; Blueberry / Bilberry-B; Lycium (wolfberry)-L; Other Berries, Fruits-O:

1. PROTECTS CELLS - protects the bodies' cells from pathogens, antigens, carcinogens. The body recognizes these nutrients and adapts them to protect and strengthen the immune system (A,P,C,L,B,G);

2. SCAVENGERS FOR FREE RADICALS - Antioxidant, inhibiting oxidative damage (P,A,L,B,G);

3. STRENGTHENS CELL MEMBRANE - allows blood/brain barrier transmission while strengthening cell membranes. All cell membranes need to protect against the unwanted entrance of pathogens (ALL);

4. BUILDS PROTEINS - the body needs to assimilate amino acids into protein (our cellular building blocks) and this juice delivers an array of amino acids (A,L,G,O);

5. RESTORES ANTIOXIDANT NUMBER - many antioxidants become weakened or are destroyed (i.e., vitamins C & E) but powerful antioxidants repair and strengthen the whole antioxidant network (P,B,A,L);

6. STRENGTHENS IMMUNE SYSTEM - the immune system is under attack-it is overworked. Powerful free radical scavengers help stregnthern the lymphocytes and leukocytes, helping the body rid itself of these pathogens (A,P,L,C,B,G);

7. ENHANCES CELLULAR COMMUNICATION - it is absolutely vital for cells to communicate properly. Healthy sugars and polysaccharides are essential (A,L,B,G).

8. STRENGTHENS NERVOUS SYSTEM - from the brain to the smallest nerve ending , this physiological (electrical) process needs energy for proper synaptic responses that quality food delivers (A,P,G,L);

9. HELPS REDUCE RISK OF CANCER - antioxidants neutralize free radicals before they can damage cellular DNA, a crucial step in the formation of cancer and tumor cells (L,P,A,G);

10. RELIVES INFLAMMATION - several compounds in these fruits, including beta-sitosteral and essential fatty acids, are powerful anti-inflammatory agents. Chronic inflammation is linked to dozens of deliberating health conditions (A,L,P,B,G);

11. IMPEDES NRS FREE RADICALS - research suggests that OPCs from richly pigmented red-purple fruits, such as blueberries and grapes, may restrict certain oxidants including nitrogen-reactive species (C and especially G);

12. FIGHTS BACTERIA - the battle for health is at the molecular level. In all of these fruits and berries there are protectants and astringents (from the flavones, flavonoids, isoflavonoids) which kill bacteria (A,C,L);

13. FIGHTS VIRUSES - a virus is 1000 times smaller than a bacterium. They work by attacking anything-they can enter a cell and damage it completely. The virus actually fills the cell with itself. This leads to a host of debilitating and degenerative diseases (P,L,G,A,B);

14. PROVIDES ESSENTIAL OILS - oils are an array of incredibly small particles which bind with other nutrients and transport them through membranes. Our bodies would not work work without them. They not only transport, but contain phytochemicals themselves (A,L,O);

15. COMBATS EFFECTS OF DIABETES - many constituents of these fruits may help the body regulate blood sugar and strengthen pancreas (A,L,P,O);

16. STRENGTHENS VISION - Zeaxanthin and Lutein strengthen and protect the eye - inhibiting glaucoma, macular degeneration and cataracts (L,A,P,G,O);

17. INCREASES MENTAL CLARITY - it is vastly important to get the proper nutrients in a transport system that allows the cells to receive and use them. The brain cell membranes are very protective (thankfully), but they are under an attack 24/7 and need strengthening (O,A,P,L,G);

18.  PROVIDES ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS - this viral part of our diet allows for the transport of nutrients (fuel) in and out of the cell (A,O);

19. STABILIZES PROPER CHOLESTEROL LEVELS - plant steroids help the process of cholesterol regulation (P,C,G,B);

20. HELPS PROSTATE - plant steroids (phenol compound) cleanse and strengthen the prostate (A,P,C,G,L);

21.  STRENGTHENS THE HEART - many of these phytoceuticals strengthen the heart muscles, strengthen blood vessel walls, inhibit platelet formation (atherosclerosis) helping prevent edema, strokes, and heart failure. After all, everything in ABC is a food (L,A,P,G,O);

22. FIGHTS CELLULAR MUTATION - the powerful antioxidants (water soluble) enter the cell and float in the liquids, attacking free radicals and other pollutants, including parasitic waste. They produce both the nucleic DNA and the Mitochondrial DNA (All);

23. INHIBITS PLATELET AGGREGATION AND CLOTTING - the polyphenols in these fruits can inhibit the clotting activity of blood cells. Also, the antioxidant effect of many polyphenols protects lipids from oxidation in the bloodstream, which further reduces risks of clots and plaque buildup (L,B,A,P,G);

24.  HELPS DIGESTION - plants carry with them their own enzymes. this helps the body (1) readily make these nutrients available and (2) allows other body enzymes to work elsewhere. Plant nutrients (phenols) are anti-ulcer, anti-acid-reflux, and help the whole digestion, absorption, and waste elimination process (A,P,C,G,L,O);

25.  STRENGTHENS MEMORY - a long list of diseases are now associated with free radicals, none more insidious than those that cause Dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's Disease, etc. Good cells die from lack of nutrition. The ABC grouping of phytonutrients helps this battle (A,P,L,B,G,C,O);

26.  HOST OF BENEFITS - from fighting e-Coli in the bladder (B), to fighting infections (C,B,A,P); from strengthen blood cells to helping the skin to convert sunlight into vitamin D (All); OUR BODIES NEED THE PAN-SYSTEMATIC HEALING HELP OF THESE PLAT NUTRIENTS.
