The Brazilian açai berry is the crown jewel of MonaVie's premier blends.

For countless centuries, the people of the Amazon have revered this unique fruit for its health-promoting properties and prized it as a source of health and vitality. The remarkable health benefits of açai are continually being documented by modern science. And because of its unparalleled antioxidant levels and extraordinary nutrient content, açai is now widely regarded as one of the world's top superfoods.

Açai is rich in the following beneficial nutrients:
• Antioxidants
• Phytonutrients
• Amino acids
• Vitamins
• Trace minerals

Balance. Variety. Moderation. Each of MonaVie's health minded products feature an exclusive blend of the Brazilian açai berry-one of nature's top superfoods-and 18 other body-beneficial fruits, including cupuaçu, camu camu, aronia, acerola, blueberry, bilberry, and pomegranate.

While the açai berry serves as the foundation for each of MonaVie's vital formulas, with literally thousands of phytonutrients and antioxidants found in nature's fresh fruits, MonaVie didn't want to focus on just one at the expense of others. This led to MonaVie's scientists and product development team selecting additional fruits whose synergistic union would reach far beyond what any single fruit could accomplish. These specially selected fruits have been exclusively combined to create MonaVie's premier balanced blends.

Enjoying the variety of health benefits contained in nature's superfruits has never been easier.

Designed for easy absorption in the body, just 2-4 ounces of MonaVie per day provides you with the phytonutrients and antioxidants found in many of the world's most nutritious fruits-including açai.

Açai contains concentrated levels of anthocyanins-a powerful family of antioxidants that assists in neutralizing the harmful effects free radicals can have on your body. Through an exclusive freeze-drying process, MonaVie is able to capture the vital nutrients found in this delicate fruit. MonaVie's freeze-dried açai powder boasts an ORAC score (a measure of antioxidant power) higher than any other fruit or vegetable tested to date, on a gram-for-gram basis.

2. Is MonaVie Active juice safe for children and pregnant or nursing women?
The MonaVie Active formula is extremely safe; however, MonaVie Active juice contains glucosamine hydrochloride and esterified fatty acids, which have not been tested in these types of individuals. It is MonaVie's recommendation that children under the age of 12, pregnant women, and women who are nursing should not consume MonaVie Active juice or Gel. If further information is required, please consult with your physician.

3. What is glucosamine hydrochloride?
Glucosamine hydrochloride is a natural compound found in the body that is used to help make and form cartilage. Glucosamine has also been shown to help lubricate, cushion, and protect healthy joints.

4. Is one form of glucosamine more effective than another?
There are three types of glucosamine: glucosamine hydrochloride (HCl), N-acetyl glucosamine, and glucosamine sulfate. Both glucosamine HCl and glucosamine sulfate are rapidly converted into "free" glucosamine in the stomach. So, from a medicinal standpoint, they are equally effective. However, glucosamine HCl is 79 percent glucosamine, while glucosamine sulfate is only between 47 and 52 percent glucosamine. We formulated MonaVie Active juice with glucosamine HCl because this form of glucosamine contains the highest level of free glucosamine.

5. What are esterified fatty acids?
Esterified fatty acids promote joint health, improving flexibility and mobility. Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two chemicals (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product.

6. Why does the MonaVie Active label list "tree nuts (palm nut)"?
MonaVie Active's esterified fatty acids are derived from a 100 percent vegetable source (palm nut oil). The (US) FDA has made it mandatory to list all sources of potential allergens found in a product on its label. Eight major foods or food groups have been identified as common allergy causing foods in some individuals. Of these foods tree nuts are included. Since palm nuts are a tree nut and the esterified fatty acids come from palm nut oil, it is necessary to list it on the product label.

7. How might esterified fatty acids cause an allergic reaction?
Allergic reactions are caused by proteins. The esterified fatty acids in MonaVie Active may contain an extremely low level-an almost undetectable level-of protein from palm nuts. Because the amount of protein is so minute, it is unlikely that people with tree nut allergies will have an allergic reaction; however, in extremely sensitive persons it is best to avoid it all together. If you have an allergy to palm nuts, it is best to consult with your physician prior to drinking MonaVie Active.

8. If I have an allergy to peanuts, will I also be allergic to tree nuts?
No, not necessarily. Individuals with peanut allergies only should not have an allergic reaction to MonaVie Active because the product is not produced in a facility that manufactures peanuts or peanut oil.
