The MonaVie formula is a blend of 19 fruits, including the antioxidant-rich acai berry as the foundation ingredient. Acai contains concentrated levels of anthocyanins-a family of antioxidants that assists in neutralizing the harmful effects free radicals can have on the body. Unsaturated fats found in the acai fruit at unusually high concentrations facilitate the fruit's antioxidant compounds.

The Doctors, a daytime talk show delivering up-to-the-minute information from a panel of four practicing medical professionals, featured the acai berry and MonaVie in a segment on the top 10 health trends for 2009.
The segment, which aired January 7, 2008, touted the benefits of the acai berry, ranking it No. 7 on the list of most talked about health trends. Calling it a 'miracle berry' from the Amazon, the hosts said acai is made into a juice that is high in antioxidants.
