Organic açaí berries - the miniature super fruit
These small power packs have what it takes! The small açaí berries, that are in fact palm fruits, belong to the so-called super fruits thanks to their high concentration of nutrients. In lavera Naturkosmetik, they are also one of the most popular sources of fruity-fresh natural aromas.

Small berries, big effect
Açaí berries are the blackish-purple fruits of the cabbage palm Euterpe oleracea, which is native to the warm, humid Amazon region of South America, where they have been used by the native inhabitants as a foodstuff, but also for remedies, since time immemorial. In Europe, this wonderful palm fruit has only become recently known – in just a few years, however, this exotic power fruit has proved itself a true super fruit with a particularly high content of nutrients. It is high time for a closer look at the açaí berry!

Beneath their secretive, dark shiny skin, these small inconspicuous fruits contain a real cocktail of ingredients: Their most important ingredients include proteins, amino acids, lipids, unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, polysaccharides, flavonoids and anthocyanins – the latter are anti-oxidants that give the berries their deep purple colour. Anti-oxidants strengthen your skin’s defences and also protect it from harmful free radicals.
