Look for Food to Provide Your Body Youthful Results
For centuries, the Amazon rain forest has been believed to have a plethora of medicines within plants and herbs that could cure most ailments known today.
Recently, this legend has become factual. Buried deep within the Amazon rain forest lies a berry that has been an Amazonian treasure for hundreds of years. The Acai fruit provides an answer to the myths of old.
(pronounced Ah-sigh-ee), this tiny fruit has been cultivated by the Amazonian tribes of the for thousands of years. It has proven to be a cure all from ailments like the common cold to diabetes. New scientific data has even linked this tiny fruit to certain types of curing cancer.
There is a legend among the locals of the Amazon region where the Acai fruit grows. Once upon a time, a tribe that had been prosperous for centuries faced extinction because of the threat of famine. The price became so great that the leader of the tribe, whose name was Itaki, made a decree that all firstborn children were to be sacrificed.
After discovering that his own daughter was pregnant, the tribal leader was saddened that this declaration would affected his own family. He then forced his daughter to sacrifice her new born.
In his daughter’s despair, she locked herself in her room, refusing to eat or drink anything. One night, she heard what she interpreted to be her baby’s cries. She stumbled out of the house immediately and there, resting under a palm tree, appeared a vision of the baby she had lost.
The next morning, the tribe descended to this palm tree and discovered the dead body of the tribal chiefs daughter. As they looked up at the palm tree, they noticed clumps of blue berries, which later became known as acai berries.
This single berry not only saved the tribe from hunger, but was instrumental in this tribe’s economic growth. The people of Belem — the state in Brazil where the Acai fruit is harvested — are said to be the descendants of this same tribe.
This tiny Acai fruit is still proven to be one of the largest economic exports for this tiny city in Brazil.
