I tried it and noticed no results.
acai berry is a scam.
There is no evidence they have any effect whatsoever.
It’s a scam! Stay away from it and all diet pills.
I bought it from Holland and Barrett, a health food store in the UK.
I assumed it would be OK to use, but it actually uses nuts in the capsules.
All I got was anaphalatic shock, but from what I have heard its a scam.
Someone above said that Acai Berry is a scam-
Well there does seem to be evidence that an Acai berry supplement is good for you, but it is not a miracle fruit or anything. All fruit and veg is good for you, recently it has been said that Acai is be one of the best in terms of nutrients (though I don’t know much about it myself).
Secondly, it is difficult to know how potent the product you get is, there is no regulation over health supplements in the same way that there is with pharmaceuticals. You could pay lots of money for a pretty rubbish product.
Where the scam bit comes in is that many websites offer a free trial of Acai Berry ( and often something called total cleanse). They ask for your credit card details to pay for shipping of the ‘free trial ‘ . You do not realise that you have signed up to get repeat shipping and automatic billing, one you have ordered the trial bottle it cannot be returned and you cannot cancel this. (it is in small print on the websites, but not apparently obvious).
My mother signed up for one of these “free trials”, luckily I found out and she managed to cancel it (one of the few who has managed to do this).
If you want to loose weight I’m sure there are weight loss products on the market that will help, but ultimately the way to slim down is to have your calorie intake less than calorie output. ( eat less and exercise more). Lots of fruit and veg is the best way to go. (I’m going on a low calorie fruit & veg diet myself to loose a few pounds)
It’s garbage. Every add about it is over exaggerated and omits a ton of information.
However, it is full of antioxidants.
“Antioxidants are substances that are capable of counteracting the damaging, but normal, effects of the physiological process of oxidation in animal tissue.”
But are antioxidants really that great?
“Since the early 1990s scientists have been putting these compounds through their paces, using double-blind randomised controlled trials – the gold standard for medical intervention studies. Time and again, however, the supplements failed to pass the test. True, they knock the wind out of free radicals in a test tube. But once inside the human body, they seem strangely powerless. Not only are they bad at preventing oxidative damage, they can even make things worse. Many scientists are now concluding that, at best, they are a waste of time and money. At worst they could be harmful.”
Just eat raw vegetables that are dark in color, drink water, grill your meat, take vitamins and exercise.
There is no quick way to lose fat beside proper diet and sufficient exercise, or liposuction.
Honestly I havent tried any of the acai berry programs but Im thinking about it. Right now I am just sticking with blueberries.
cant speak for anyone else….just my own personal experience with it, but Yes!!! it worked for me…no joke!
i lost 9 lbs in 2 weeks! it was miraculous…and i promise, i did nothing differently.
I already work out regularly and stuff…all i did was take 2 capsules in the morning…
i did one of those 2 week free trial things…and canceled right away so i wouldnt get charged for monthly supplies…but yea. its great!!!
i would definitely suggest trying it!!! you dont have anything to lose except for a few bucks for shipping and handling and those stubborn lbs!!!
here is an article where i read about the benefits!!! check it out!
