Key Ingredient
The açai berry is the crown jewel of the MonaVie blend. When properly freeze-dried, acai boasts an ORAC
score of 1,026 per gram—higher than that of any other fruit or vegetable tested to date. It’s no wonder that
for ages the indigenous cultures of the Amazon have revered açai as a source of health and vitality.
Recently, modern science has validated the remarkable health benefits of this fruit, and studies have shown
açai to contain the following beneficial nutrients:
• Polyphenols
• Vitamins and minerals
• Amino acids
• Essential fatty acids (omega 3, 6, and 9)
• Plant sterols
• Fiber
Studies have also shown that freeze-dried açai powder has an ORAC score that is 79 times higher than that
of red grapes and an anthocyanin (purple colored antioxidants) level that is 20–30 times that of red wine.
The final blend of MonaVie incorporates the flavors and benefits of the açai berry and 18 other healthful
and delicious fruits.
• The Blend. The açai berry is arguably the most important fruit in existence for your health. Experts have
referred to acai as the world’s no. 1 super food. But nature has given us literally thousands of different
phytonutrients and antioxidants that are important for our bodies to function optimally. While it may be
difficult to get too much of a good thing, it would be unwise to ignore the variety of health benefits that
nature’s other fruits have to offer. This is why MonaVie products include a blend of 19 of the most nutrient-
dense fruits known to man, including açai. Each fruit was chosen for its unique ability to contribute to a
product that offers you the most complete and balanced health benefits. MonaVie believes in the principal
of Balance–Variety–Moderation: Balance is better than relying upon the contribution of a single ingredient;
variety can produce greater benefits than one particular nutrient; and moderation is more powerful than
excess.
• The Process. MonaVie takes great care at each step in production to ensure that the highest quality
standards are met.
- (Harvesting) The process begins with the harvesting of the açai berry deep within the Amazon River
basin. Unlike poachers, who illegally chop down an entire tree just to harvest a 12-inch section of the
tree know as the palmito (or “heart of the palm”), our conservative harvesting method removes only
the açai berries, thereby preserving the life of the tree and promoting the preservation of the
rainforest.
- (Processing) Açai is a delicate fruit and much of its vitamin and nutrient content can be lost within 48
hours of harvesting. Once harvested, our acai is immediately processed into our patent-pending,
freeze-dried formula, maintaining its beneficial properties. The final acai blend contains the benefits
of both freeze-dried acai and frozen acai pulp, which contains the fruit’s flesh, skin, and seed. By
pureeing each fruit in its entirety, the full complement of nutrients is captured.
- (Formulation and bottling) Most companies use a process known as kettle pasteurization. This
process involves heating the formula for several hours and can inadvertently “cook out” much of the
nutritional properties. However, MonaVie uses flash pasteurization in which the formula is rapidly
heated, bottled, and cooled, thereby capturing the fresh flavors, vibrant colors, and dense nutrient
content of the blend.

Mona Vie
MonaVie is a delicious blend of açai and 18 of the world’s most
nutrient-dense fruits, each selected for its unique nutritional
properties. MonaVie Active™ is an advanced formula that offers
the additional benefits of glucosamine and esterified fatty acids to
help maintain healthy joints.
- Açai is a small, round, black-purple berry with amazing
nutritional properties. Its appearance is similar to that of a
grape, but it has a smaller amount of pulp and a single
large seed. Scientific experts have referred to the açai
berry as the most nutritious and powerful food in the world.
Whichever MonaVie product you treat your taste buds to, you’ll
feel great knowing that you are taking charge of your health.
