Acai Berry - Besides IBS relief, additional health benefits

You may know that many of the ingredients in our natural IBS treatment are clinically proven to provide relief from irritable bowel syndrome symptoms. But did you know that these all natural ingredients can also provide many other important health benefits in addition to just treating IBS when taken daily?

Today we will dive deeper into: Acaí

Some clinically proven health benefits gained from consuming acai include:

Anti-cancer^5,8
Anti-cardiovascular disease and stroke³
Anti-inflammatory^2,5,6
Hypertension reduction (High Blood Pressure)⁷
Improves cellular antioxidant enzymes⁴
Lowering Cholesterol¹
Preventing early signs of aging⁹
Steadying of insulin-glucose balance¹

You may remember back in 2007-2008 when a well publicized multi-level marketing company called MonaVie was all the rage. The product was a fruit juice blend that contained a high concentration of acai and was sold in a fancy wine style bottle. I'm guilty of hopping on that train, and I'm so glad I did! I don't think I ever sold a single bottle of that ridiculously over-priced fruit juice, but I did drink it twice a day, and I personally noticed some incredible health results.

At that time, people were making broad, unsubstantiated claims about the health benefits associated with consuming acai. One of those claims was that it helped digestion. I'm happy to say that it unmistakably helped with my IBS symptoms and that's why I've included it in our IBSolution. The popular Dr. Josh Axe reports "Acai berry is considered a natural digestive cleanser, helping the liver and kidneys to process and remove waste and toxins from the body. On top of its ability to work as a kidney and liver cleanser, it’s also a natural colon cleanser, which means it prevents the accumulation of harmful substances and undigested matter from staying lodged in the colon where they can cause constipation and other digestive problems. By improving the metabolism in general, acai berries are capable of speeding up bowel transit time, preventing foods from fermenting in the intestines and causing bloating, gas and constipation."

Possibly the most rewarding benefit of consuming acai berries is the fact that they are loaded with antioxidants including anthocyanins, polyphenols, and vitamins A, B, C, D and E. They also contain very high levels of essential fatty acids such as omega-3, omega-6, omega-9, linoleic acid, palmitic acid and monounsaturated oleic acid. These are all considered essential for good health, and experts recommend getting a balanced amount of each. Also present in Acai berries are, potassium, magnesium, copper, calcium and zinc. Since both calcium and vitamin D are present, these berries are an important self contained calcium source. More than 7% of the acai berry pulp is made up of 19 different amino acids that have been found within. There have been 3 plant sterols identified in acai including beta-sitosterol, campesterol and sigmasterol. These photosterols are proven to have many health benefits including proper digestive function and maintaining a healthy heart.

Our all natural IBS treatment contains a significant amount of acai. When taken twice a day, IBSolution not only can halt your IBS symptoms, but grant you all of these amazing bonus health benefits! It’s no wonder why so many of our valued customers buy from us each and every month, even after their IBS has become a thing of the past.
