Acai Berry Extract
Juggling between work, being a wife and mom of two kids requires me to be in top form all the time. I keep a close tab on my dietary intakes and exercise regularly. I particularly enjoy long distance running and swimming, as it allows me to have some time to myself and is rather rejuvenating. Besides, I gain better stamina and energy levels needed to fulfill my family`s needs. On average, I run three times a week, which is usually alternated with swimming.
With the arrival of the fasting month, my exercise routines are slightly altered. It is temporary halted with the change of meal routines. During the fasting period, we Muslims take opportunity to indulge ourselves in various religious activities. The first few weeks is rather challenging as the body tries to adapt to a new schedule - which is waking up before dawn to catch our sahur (meal consumed for purpose of fasting), and breaking fast at dusk. I have to say to that having to go through my normal work routine, and doing chores at home while fasting leaves me rather tired at the end of the day.
To counter this, I usually double my consumption of water after breaking fast, and add more high fiber foods in my diet. Nonetheless, I have also found that supplements are a great aid to maintain the energy level I require in my day-to-day activities. I was watching a documentary recently where they featured a list of Top Ten Superfood. It is compiled by a renowned dermatologist and author, Dr Nicholas Perricone. Of the listed items, I was most intrigued by a plant called the Acai berry. It is a berry found from palm trees and is said to have high content of anti-oxidants.
I had totally forgotten about the TV program and the berries, until I stumbled upon Acai berry extract during my normal visit to the drug store. The Acai berry extract came in form capsules and was available in several brands as well. Spoiled for choices, I finally decided on Healthy Choice Naturals Acai berry extract. As with other generic dietary supplements, only one capsule is required daily and dosage for each capsule is 1200 mg. For a bottle of 60 capsules, I only had to fork out $24.
That morning, I took one capsule to go with my sahur. For about a few days, no major changes took place. It was on the sixth or seventh day of consuming the Acai berry extract that I noticed my energy levels were actually boosted. Usually during fasting, I would start to get a little sleepy in the afternoons. But it was different this time. Even at the end of my work day, I could still maintain a high level of alertness. My usual lethargy was replaced with lightness and I felt that I could do a million more things, even at the end of the day.
Another thing that I noticed is that the Acai berry extract aided my digestion. It did not require much effort for me to pile on fiber, as I would normally do. My 60 year old mother, whom I share the Acai berry extract with, also found that her heartburns after meals were gone. She also said that she could sleep better now, right through the night. Another remark she made was that I could probably get another bottle of those extract, without sharing it with her!
