The difference between refined sugar and natural sugar
It’s important to remember that natural sugar from fruit is very different than the refined sugar you find in many processed foods.
Refined sugar (such as in soda and candy) has no nutritional value and is broken down extremely fast by your body. This causes your insulin and blood sugar to skyrocket – yikes!
Sugar in fruit is called fructose and takes longer to break down, keeping you fuller for longer. Fruits are also filled with fiber, vitamins and minerals and anti-oxidants which are great for your body and actually bring nutritional value to your diet!
Now let’s talk Playa Acai™ – as not all acai is created equal
Playa Acai™ has double the pulp (the skin of the berry that surrounds the large seeded center) of our competitors, giving you more health benefits.
We never blend our acai with banana or apple juice bringing down the sugar contents significantly.
Playa Acai™ is imported directly to New Jersey from Brazil and is never stored for more than 21 days – unlike many of our competitors which may keep Acai stored for over a year.
We control everything that goes into Playa Acai™ and serve a superior product that is not available at any other acai shop you have visited. Be sure to stick with New Jersey’s Original Acai Shop™ – your body will thank you 🙂
