Canadian television has notified viewers that certain acai berry products, including acai weight loss and anti-aging supplements are impure, and that they contain trace elements of slidenafil, also known as the prescription drug Viagra. Many of these acai products are available for purchase throughout North America through the Internet. Serious side effects can occur when Viagra is combined with other medications, so steer clear of these products until we have more information.

Acai Berry Weight Loss Hype Discussion

sarita — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:49:26 +0000

Physician and nutritionist Martica Heaner discusses acai’s health benefits, including whether claims that acai facilitates weight loss are legitimate. She talks about how much of the language used in marketing acai products really just amount to ads, because there’s little medical research on acai to back it up.

Here’s Dr. Heaner’s take on weight loss and the acai berry:

“As far as weight loss goes, there’s no plausible mechanism that has been shown for why acai berry products might aid weight loss. Fruit can help with weight loss because it is high in fiber and nutrients and has few calories. Once fruit is turned into juice, however, it becomes another sweetened drink, often adding surplus calories to a diet that can lead to weight gain, not loss, if not monitored.”

Acai Berry Weight Loss Hype: Know the Facts

sarita — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 18:12:39 +0000

One of the reasons why the acai berry has been associated with scams is because of the false claims. Acai berry produce makers and distributors have been found to invent or bend scientific information to support their claims that the acai berry is key to losing weight.

What do the experts say about the acai berry and weight loss? Basically, there’s not enough scientific evidence of acai’s ability to promote weight loss any more than another antioxidant-rich fruit.

Here’s what health expert Martica Heaner says about the acai berry weight loss hype:

“As far as weight loss goes, there’s no plausible mechanism that has been shown for why acai berry products might aid weight loss. Fruit can help with weight loss because it is high in fiber and nutrients and has few calories. Once fruit is turned into juice, however, it becomes another sweetened drink, often adding surplus calories to a diet that can lead to weight gain, not loss, if not monitored.

While many ask, “Is the acai berry a superfood with super benefits,” perhaps the real question is this: “Is any food a ‘super food?’”

What is the Acai Diet Anyway?

sarita — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 12:52:11 +0000

There’s so much information about the acai berry and how it helps weight loss. But the reality is, it’s only one component of a healthy diet that can help you lose weight.

The acai berry facilitates weight loss by helping to increase energy and metabolism. This helps you process the healthy foods you eat more efficiently. Without a proper diet (not just acai!) as well as exercise, consuming acai will not promote weight loss. To equate this small berry with a thin waist is an enormous leap, if not a downright lie.

Here’s an excerpt from this interesting article over at the Acai Berry Site:

“An acai berry diet is not one where you would eat solely acai berry. This is a common misconception and one which needs snubbing out quickly. The acai berry forms just a small part of what must be a sensible diet. Like all good diets the nutrition you take on board needs to be rounded, and acai berry just supplements this rounded intake. The acai berry will not in itself make you thin! Anyone that says it will is most likely trying to part you with your hard-earned cash. What it does do is to give you an awesome toolbox with which to lose weight and live a healthier lifestyle.”

As acai continues to become a worldwide phenomenon, we get more questions about the availability of acai berry products and supplements. Though the link we’re sharing with you is from a more muscle fitness oriented site, it provides some helpful information on where to find acai products in the UK, Canada and Australia.

The site also provides an overview of the more popular acai supplements believed to promote weight loss. Some of the more well-known products include Amazon Thunder, Cloud Nine, Acai Nutraburst, Acai Burn and Acai Burn Extreme. Here you learn a bit more about the differences between them in ingredients and ingested form.

‘There are two related weight loss supplements that are very popular that I want to talk about. They are Acai Burn and Acai Burn Extreme for men. They are basically the same supplement, but the quantities of ingredients are a little different. These supplements contain acai berry for the antioxidants, omega fatty acids, and dietary fiber. They have green tea for the metabolism boosting effect. There is also chromium polynicotinate and garcina cambogia for blood sugar stabilization as well as gymnema sylvestre as an appetite suppressant. All of these are natural ingredients that have helped many people as health supplements, but have not been approved by the FDA as medicines.’

Simple Steps to an Acai Weight Loss Program

sarita — Sat, 04 Apr 2009 17:21:31 +0000

As you have probably seen on TV or read on the Internet, Acai Berries are a fantastic way to lose weight. Acai berries, often referred to as “nature’s energy fruit” have benefits WAY beyond just weight loss. Acai berries were originally found in the Amazon rainforest and are packed with more nutrients then nearly every other natural food.

In this brief article I will cover off a few simple steps that will help you get started with your acai weight loss program.

First step – decide HOW you want to consume the Acai Berry

The acai berry is available in several forms including: Frozen Berries, Extract/Juice & Capsules. Some of these forms are easier to consume then others.

The Acai berry has a very pleasing taste – most describe the taste as a chocolate covered berry. If you can find the berries in a store near your home you may want to try a bag of frozen berries. They can be eaten on their own or blended into smoothies, mixed into pancakes and added to breakfast cereals (hot or cold!).

Acai Juice & extract is a highly concentrated form of the acai berry. Extract is often sold in a 5:1 concentration and will normally have approximately 1000mg of acai berry. This is a very popular form of the taking the acai berry due to the high concentration.

Acai Capsules are a highly concentrated capsule or pill that is usually packed with several vitamins & nutrients along with the acai berry itself. Some of the additional nutrients include Phosphorus, Calcium, Potassium and valuable fatty acids including Omega 6 and Omega 9. Acai capsules are also very easy to work into a regular daily routine. For these reasons the capsules are a popular way of using Acai in a an acai weight loss program.

Second Step – buy your acai berries

Acai berries are available in many health food stores and at several online herbal supplement stores. You may decide to go for the nice tasting whole acai berries or possibly you decide to go for the convenience & cost effectiveness of the capsules. Either way you should be careful to buy acai berries from a reputable source. A few things you can do when buying acai berries. Only buy certified organic products and MAKE SURE the product contains a high concentration of acai. Some scams trying to capitalize on the popularity of acai are selling nothing more then sweetened water! This is easy to avoid if you read the label. Last, demand a money back guarantee if buying online – the label on the package you receive should match the label you were shown on the internet.

AcaiBurn Testimonials – Is it Safe?

sarita — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 00:31:00 +0000

I found so many testimonials about AcaiBurn online but I was so disappointed because only a few of them warn about the side effects of taking this wonderful product. The side effects are nothing serious to worry about but I still believe that anyone planning on using a dietary supplement should be aware of the other consequences of taking the product.

AcaiBurn is a weight loss pill derived from a small, nutritious fruit called the Acai Berry. The fruit contains natural antioxidants that rid the body of harmful toxins. The USDA rates the Acai Berry as the number one food with the highest antioxidant composition. It also has lots of fiber forms that aid in quicker weight loss.

What makes it different from other weight loss products is that it also offers a wide array of health benefits for people who take it. It helps in cancer prevention, reduces heart disease risks, and strengthens our immune system against bacterial and viral infections.

One important side effect should be put in mind before deciding to use Acai Berry: loss of appetite.

Soon after I started using AcaiBurn, it seems that I suffered from appetite suppression. I started eating less food at parties, weddings, and holiday gatherings. My food cravings suddenly disappeared. To some people like me, this is not a bad thing at all. I made this side effect work for me. But be careful because many Acai Berry products have other additives that can make it dangerous to your health.
