No sabemos si la moda es resultado del boom de contenido gastron\u00f3mico saludable que hay en las redes sociales, pero el caso es que de nuestra carta de <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/catering\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/generationb.es\/catering\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">opciones healthy<\/a><\/strong>, es sin duda de las m\u00e1s populares.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">An a\u00e7ai bowl is something of a <strong>nutrient bomb<\/strong> that can give us a huge amount of energy and good vibes in terms of health, whether for breakfast or a snack, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Want to know more about what an a\u00e7ai bowl is? Here's everything you need to know about this purple phenomenon <img role=\"img\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\ud83e\udd24\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f924.svg\">.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What exactly is an a\u00e7ai bowl?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">A\u00e7a\u00ed (pronounced asa\u00ed) is a <strong>small dark purple berry that grows on palm trees in the Amazon rainforest<\/strong> in Brazil. Because it is a very delicate fruit, it is not exported fresh, but is processed and frozen immediately in the form of pulp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">An a\u00e7a\u00ed bowl is basically <strong>a thick smoothie<\/strong> (like a sorbet) <strong>made from this frozen pulp<\/strong>, served in a bowl and eaten with a spoon. The key to a good bowl is the texture: it must be firm enough so that the toppings don't sink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, an a\u00e7ai bowl can be complemented with countless other products to create a complete, tasty and energy-packed meal. That's exactly what we offer at Generation B <img role=\"img\" class=\"emoji\" alt=\"\ud83d\ude42\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f642.svg\">.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Our sweet a\u00e7ai bowl options at Generation B<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">As you know, a\u00e7ai is a <strong>staple healthy ingredient in our menu<\/strong>.

Experiment with textures and extra nutrients like the ones we offer at Generation B.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why is the A\u00e7a\u00ed Bowl so good?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">That's the thing about foods classified as \"superfoods\": they are <strong>nutritionally exceptional<\/strong>. A\u00e7a\u00ed is undoubtedly one of them. And it's not just because of its exotic colour, which is also appealing, of course, but because of its nutritional value, which makes it so sought after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most notable features of the a\u00e7a\u00ed bowl are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Antioxidant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heart-healthy fats<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provides fibre<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Low in sugar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\"><strong>A\u00e7a\u00ed has many more anthocyanins<\/strong> (antioxidants) than blueberries or grapes. If you didn't know, this greatly <strong>helps combat cellular ageing<\/strong> and strengthen the immune system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">Unlike most fruits, <strong>a\u00e7a\u00ed contains healthy fats<\/strong> (Omega 3, 6 and 9), similar to those found in olive oil or avocado. As we have said, it also <strong>aids digestion and keeps you feeling full<\/strong> for longer (say goodbye to those tempting and unhealthy snacks between meals), and, most notably, it is very low in sugar (the a\u00e7a\u00ed berry itself contains almost no sugar, making it ideal for controlling glucose spikes, provided we do not add industrial juices or processed syrups).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The acai bowl is all the rage, but is that surprising?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">Well, it shouldn't. At <strong>Generation B<\/strong>, we have been seeing for years (since the day we opened) the general interest and <strong>high demand from customers for a superfood<\/strong> that, from our point of view, stands out for three main reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>100% healthy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Social media-friendly.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wellness culture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">That's right, we live in an interconnected world where our voluntary exposure borders on the absurd. And for all those people who share their daily lives, experiences and activities with the rest of the world through social media, <strong>the a\u00e7a\u00ed bowl is very appealing<\/strong>. With its vibrant purple colour, combined with the fruits and seeds arranged in the bowl, <strong>it is irresistible for photos<\/strong>. We eat with our eyes, and the a\u00e7a\u00ed is spectacular to look at, let's be honest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">A\u00e7a\u00ed is the <strong>perfect alternative to ice cream or heavy breakfasts<\/strong> of industrial pastries. It satisfies the desire for something sweet and cold, but with real ingredients. It has established its association with an active, healthy and conscious lifestyle. It is the quintessential \"post-yoga\" breakfast in cities such as Barcelona, Sydney and Los Angeles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">The 21st century is already establishing itself as the standard-bearer for <strong>fast but healthy food<\/strong>. Imaginative food with so-called \"superfoods\" and combinations of other fresh and natural foods. <strong>Vegetarian and vegan options are gaining ground<\/strong> and, ultimately, a much more balanced and conscious food culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">At <strong>Generation B<\/strong>, we ensure that <strong>our a\u00e7a\u00ed is organic and fair trade<\/strong>, because it's not only important that it's good for you, but also for the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">We love witnessing this paradigm shift and offering a menu of options in line with our customers' new expectations. The a\u00e7a\u00ed bowl is a must for many of them. Take a look at our online menu and if you haven't tried it yet, today could be the perfect time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-3e41869c wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/menu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pide online en Generation B<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Queremos explicar bien qu\u00e9 es el a\u00e7ai bowl, uno especialidad que en Generation B preparamos con mimo y que es [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2121,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1499","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sugerencias-saludables"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1499"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1499\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2121"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/generationb.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
