Acai Health Watch

The Acai Berry, (pronounced ah-sigh-EE) is a purple berry which is the fruit of Brazilian palm trees and is one of the most nutritious foods in Brazil, taken by Brazilians for many years for its energy and rejuvenating powers. Acai Berry Power 500 is a compound made only of the acai berry extract which contains powerful anti-oxidants for a jump start on weight loss.

Pros:

The Acai Berry Power 500 formula is made only with acai berry extract and boasts that it flushes out the toxins, helps with water weight reduction, and speeds up the metabolism to help burn fat faster. It is said to be cause rapid weight loss and lead to a flatter stomach.

There are many products made with Acai Berry extract as one of their ingredients, but Acai Berry Power 500 is said to be the only all acai berry extract on the market and is sold online. There are generic formulas sold at many natural health food stores. Many people report rapid weight losses and more energy.

Cons:

At a price of $89 per bottle charge, there are cheaper and just as effective dietary weight loss supplements on the market. Acai Berry Power 500 claims to flush fat, remove toxins, give energy and reduce bloating, but all of the Acai Berry extract products do the same and most of them cost less. Further, there is no evidence that it really does what it says, and it has not been approved by the FDA. It could be a placebo effect, as it is recommended as a supplement to be taken with a calorie controlled diet and exercise program.

Acai Berry Power 500 offers a “free trial”. These offers are not turning out to be “free” and consumers should read all the small print, as many consumers are getting charged for a monthly membership on a fitness site that they were unaware of.

Acai Berry Power 500 has received more negative comments regarding their free trial program, than some of the other online dietary supplements. Consumers are reporting a charge of $29 and then a monthly supply charge of $89, and are often met with a recording when trying to cancel, get a refund, or find out where their free trial and product are.

Calorie Controlled Diet may give the same results:

A calorie controlled diet may give you the same results. By taking in fewer calories than you burn with natural foods and berries that raise your metabolism or act as diuretics to make you lose weight faster, you can save the $89 a month.

In review of Acai Berry Power 500, be sure to read all small print, even if you are willing to spend the $89 on the auto-ship program that you are signed up for with the free trial offer. Since there have been some issues with credit card charges, non-shipped product, and calls not returned by the companies dealing with it online, a consumer should use caution and make sure they are dealing with a reputable source.
