Hi Musa,

Great question. And to answer you, I have no idea. You are right, there is no mention of how much of this product is actually Acai.
In the end, if one likes this product, then great – but I would not be banking on this or any other product like it for any miraculous health benefits. All fruits and vegetables are protective and healing in nature against disease.

All the best!

How much of the product percentage wise is actually acai. I know its the first ingredient which I assume its a lot but Arthur’s doesn’t publish this information like other acai juice makers. Do you know?

@ AMY – Thank you for your visit here and yes, it is a great smoothie!

As for how much you can have per day – as it is not any type of medicinal or supplemental compound, there isn’t per se any upper limit.

However, as great as these smoothies are, they do contain a lot of fruit, which can also provide a lot of sugar – natural sugars – but still.

Hence, I would not be drinking more than a couple of glasses of this per day or 1 of the biggest bottles that they come in. I would say that would be my max.

However, we should really try to keep in mind that the body needs pure water each day for best functioning.

So enjoy this smoothie, but don’t overdo it – have maybe a glass here or there, but ultimately try to make water your main fluid each day.

As you progress you may also want to try making your own smoothies and include more greens – that would be the healthiest way to go.

@ KRISTIN – That is wonderful to hear Kristin! It really is a great line of smoothies and I am so proud of them for really making it so “natural”, no sweeteners or the like, so it is indeed great for the whole family!

@ SHAWN – Hi Shawn, if I had to guess I would think they use fresh acai, based based on the fact that it is made into a puree, but it could be frozen too. I doubt that it is an extract because that would usually be spelled out on the label, like “acai berry extract”, but to be 100% sure, I recommend emailing them. There is a contact form, right on their home site:

The latest research I’ve seen on Acai suggests that freeze-dried berries are better than extract. Does anyone know which this drink uses?

Hi Steve!

Thanks for sharing your experiences with this line of drinks. I am actually writing another review on some other of their flavors as they are really great!

I have at this point tried almost all their varieties and like you say, “delicious, nutritious and well priced”!
