Acai Berry Prevents Ovarian Cancer

There as been a lot of talk about the health benefits of acai berry but what are the clinical studies really saying? Here is what about.com has to say about acai berry preventing cancer, and in particular ovarian cancer:

If there ever was a miracle food substance with far reaching disease prevention potential, including ovarian cancer prevention, it is the Acai Berry from Brazil. You may have been reading a lot of hooplah about it as an anti-oxidant "par-excellance", over and above Mangosteeen, Noni, Blueberrry, Pomegranate and more. Well, that hooplah is well deserved in cancer prevention…. theoretically applicable to BOTH ovarian cancer primary and recurrence prevention. The anti-oxidant properties of the acai berry is off the charts, and some formulations contain many antioxidant berries such as the popular Monavie blend which actually has some clinical studies under its belt.

There are now a number of clinical and basic science studies which show that the acai berry has some of the strongest direct anti-cancer properties, which makes it as natural a complementary treatment as you can get, in a tasty form to boot. What complementary means is that it is NOT a replacement for cancer therapy, BUT is probably VERY useful to help prevent cancer before you get it and after treatment to prevent recurrence. During chemotherapy there has been concern that anti-oxidants may interfere…..talk with your doctor about this. The data are not very strong in support of this statement so that you may be able to take it even during treatment.

You can order acai berry tablets here which can be delivered to Australia and New Zealand.
