Acai berries contains high concentration of special antioxidants can help a person achieve weight loss by eradicating free radicals from the body.

Free radicals and other reactive oxygen species are usually by-products of normal essential metabolic processes in the body. Also exposure to X-rays, ozone, cigarette smoking, air pollutants and industrial chemicals can release free radicals into our system.

Free radicals are useful for human development by promoting natural cell renewal, and they are constantly formed in the body due to enzymatic and non-enzymatic reactions. However, high concentrations of free radicals become harmful to the body because they cause the body cells to decay, and this can causes weight gain.

You can see that these free radicals, however, are not always harmful; they are also useful in the human body. Furthermore, white blood cells release free radicals to destroy invading pathogenic microbes as part of the body's defence mechanism against disease. Hence, the complete elimination of these radicals would not only be impossible, but also harmful.

Antioxidants help in mopping up these free radicals from the system, thereby preventing excessive cell decay – by acting as a buffer for decaying cells and regenerating cells. Therefore, the acai detox berry diet antioxidants are very useful to the body.

Essential amino acids, carbohydrates and fibers, healthy fatty acids, and phytosterols are also contained in the acai detox berry diet. These are substances that collectively and individually enhance metabolic reactions – decomposition of food substances - in the body.

The overall effect of these substances is that they speed up the rate at which unwanted substances are removed from the body.
The special fiber contained in acai acts like fibres in general – it facilitates bowel movements. In fact, the fibre enhances metabolic activities because, logically, whatever increases bowel movement will also speed up food breakdown.

You must also know that all these acai berry components release calories into your system, and you need to burn off those calories. Therefore, exercise must accompany any cleansing program in order to achieve best weight loss results.
