How to Use Acai

The acai berry, native to Brazil, is being touted as a food to eat if you want to lower cholesterol, sleep better, improve your digestion and even ward off cancer. Whether this information is true or not, there are many great uses for the delicious acai berry.

Things You'll Need

• Blender or juicer
• Ice

Instructions

1. Start your blender and make a smoothie from acai berries for breakfast or snacks. Combining acai with other berries or mango, plain yogurt and crushed ice makes a healthy and delicious treat.

2. Eat your morning yogurt mixed with acai berries and granola for a change of pace. Acai replaces blueberries or strawberries and is very tasty.
