Dear, Barbara
I am glad you are happy with the Sambazon product. It’s good but very different from our Acai Max. I understand your confusion about 100% pure, I get asked about it daily! Sambazon’s concentrate is 100% pure, until you add water or juice. The purity is diluted by the volume of liquid added. It’s a 100% pure drink not 100% pure acai. I hope you get that concept.
Our Acai berries are wild grown in the Amazon Rain Forest. They are hand picked and cold pressed to extract the juice. To the pure juice we add Amazonian camu camu, pomegranate, raspberry, elderberry & other antioxidant rich juice extracts. This synergistic blend of juices possesses the super antioxidant, ellagic acid.
- Ellagic Acid is a potent anti-carcinogen.
- Ellagic Acid has the ability to inhibit mutations within a cell’s DNA.
- Ellagic Acid is considered to be a cancer inhibitor which has the ability to cause apoptosis or normal cell death in cancer cells.
- In addition, research has found that Ellagic Acid has antibacterial and anti-viral properties

Barbara, this is hard to condense into an e-mail but the other important point is there are thousands of dietary antioxidants, phenols being just one classification. When we add the camu camu, pomegranate, raspberry, elderberry, & other antioxidant rich juice extracts to the acai juice, we are enhancing and supporting the activity and benefits of the acai. Acai is not in a class by itself, neither is any other fruit or vegetable juice and that’s the truth. Each fruit or vegetable is unique and has its own benefits and weaknesses. A variety of fruits and vegetables is your best insurance policy for getting all that you need nutritionally.
California Academy of Health (CAOH) is not about hype. We are not flashy or fancy. What we do is put out high quality heath products that meet or exceed our competitor’s. We also offer our products at a lower price because we are not an MLM and we don’t have tens of thousands in advertising costs.
As a final note: add up the money you will have to spend on certified organic: camu camu, pomegranate, red raspberry and black elderberry juice. Add up the cost of gas to go to the stores to purchase the juices, add in the price of Sambazon’s concentrate and you have just spent a nice chunk of change. We have done the work for you and saved you a lot of money. I feel our Acai Max is a superior product. Whatever product you want to use is up to you. I hope I was able to enlighten and educate you a little.
Sincerely,
