Default Looking for freeze dried Acai berry

Hi everyone,

I currently own a vita-mix and make the bomb smoothies. The usual smoothie has:

organic banana
organic strawberry
avocado
organic pear
organic kale
organic apple
organic carrot
sometimes organic non-pasteurized almond

and other great ingredients!

however, i would like to add a supplement to my smoothies! i have been thinking about an antioxidant rich freeze dried supplement like Acai. I have researched and think that Acai seems to be the most antioxidant rich freeze dried supplement. i only want the purest, most potent stuff. i don't care if it costs a bit more. i am extremely picky about what supplements i put in my body. anyway, i am open to any suggestions. i am also open to any other superfood power, not just antioxidant powder.

lol tell me about it. i LOVE my vitamix. i bought it from costco and it was like 40-50 bucks less than online from vitamix.com the best investment ever.

the machine is the BOMB! A must have right next to my reverse osmosis water filter.

i really want to get freeze dried acai because whole foods is so far from me.

Don't get too hung up on Acai. It is not all that healthy for you in spite of all the hype surrounding it. A good advertising agency can make anything sound great.

You make a good point. After more research into Acai...I have decided to stick with buying Organic Strawberries & other veggies & fruit at my local market. I feel the money would be better spent.

Thanks
