Dr. Oz Recommends Acai Berry

By Ingram Laura

Dr. Mehmet Oz has declared the acai berry to be the number one superfood of our time, and after being on the Oprah Winfrey show many people now know this to be true. Dr. Mehmet Oz and acai berry now seem to go hand in hand. Though Dr. Mehmet Oz is very young he has achieved a great deal in the medical field. He is very loyal to his Turkish heritage, and works with many Turkish young men with hopes of becoming doctors.

The acai berry is grown on a specific palm tree in the rainforests in Brazil, and is filled with many nutrients. The vitamin and mineral count is extremely high, along with omega three and antioxidants. The acai berry is extremely fragile and must be freeze dried almost immediately after harvesting. It has become in extreme demand in the U.S. and around the world in the past few years.

The question is where does one purchase acai berry products? Health food stores will be carrying a wide selection of manufactured products. These products include health bars, drinks, powders and health supplements. Many new flavors are added daily, even though the original flavor which is a cross between red wine and chocoate is very good.

Dr. Mehmet's days are filled with many activities and he is involved in many organizations as well as seeing his cardiac patients. His greatest passion in life is working with his heart patients. He has authored several popular books on different medical issues, makes many appearances on TV, radio and conventions, and not to forget time spent with his family.

Together Dr. Mehmet Oz and acai berry are a team. Due to the valuable properties of this little berry it has become something he recommends regularly. He also believes it to be a great weight loss product due to its many vitamins and satisfying taste. - 15995
