Acai berries are considered a ‘super-fruit’ and grow in the Amazon region where they are a dietary staple. Thanks to very high antioxidant content, the açaí berry has many health benefits. The berry is loaded with powerful plant compounds that are rich in natural phenolics and healthy fats. We have found a way to extract an oil, from the acai berry, similar to olive oil, that allows you to maximize the health benefits of every meal. The benefits can include reducing cholesterol and therefore the risk of heart disease. The açai berry oil is full of unsaturated fatty acids providing Omega 6 and 9.

While the oil is rich in antioxidants, it does not use any genetically modified organisms (GMO’s), contains no allergens, plus it’s vegan! Açai oil is produced by cold pressing açai pulp, similar to the production of olive oil. Its excellent nutritional characteristics are responsible for its anti-atherogenic activity (ability to reduce the formation of artery-clogging plaques) and can help decrease total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol), thus preventing cardiovascular disease. The composition of açai oil is predominantly unsaturated fatty acids, more specifically Omega 9 monounsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid). In addition, acai oil also has a large number of tocopherols (vitamin E), a very important antioxidant that slows the cellular damage caused by aging. Acai oil has a naturally reddish color derived from the deep purple color of its berries, like other ‘super-foods’. The acai oil can be used in food preparation or even added on top of meals for added flavor.

Passion fruit is not only a delicious fruit to eat, but a lesser-known fact is that its seeds provide an oil with very special benefits. Passion fruit oil can help balance the skin’s natural oils and reduce blemishes. When the dried seeds are cold pressed and filtered, the oil provides high levels of unsaturated fatty acids and vitamins with high antioxidant power, such as vitamin C and vitamin A. Both vitamins are also commonly found in topical facial creams and serums as they are known to help prevent skin aging and various diseases associated with oxidative stress.

In addition, passion fruit oil has important minerals such as iron, calcium and phosphorus. Passion fruit has a
long history in traditional medicine and has long been used for its soothing properties. The scientific community now recognizes its benefits. Puro Pura’s Passion Fruit Oil, when used in cooking, may help relieve anxiety,
irritability and stress-related issues. Passion fruit oil is produced by cold pressing the seeds in order to preserve
all the vitamins and fats and give you the best tasting oil. This oil tastes best when used on seafood, however,
works with salads, smoothies, baking and pretty much everything else.

Almost everyone knows that Omega 3, otherwise known as linoleic acid, is a necessary part of a healthy diet and that it may improve joint pain and bone health. Omega 3 fatty acids are most commonly provided by fish oils or flaxseed oil. Flaxseed oil is primarily composed of unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid which represents 54 per cent of the oil’s composition.

All of these benefits can be had so simply, with just the daily addition of Puro Pura’s Golden Flaxseed Oil to your diet. It is perfect for vegans and those who want to avoid unpleasant tasting fish oils. Puro Pura’s Golden Flaxseed Oil is heat stable and can be used similarly to olive oil.
