Do You Know the Best Diet Pills of 2024?
BACKGROUND
Just the mention of a product coming from the Amazon has the overtones of possessing mysterious health benefits. Acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) is the high-energy berry of a special Amazon palm tree. Its nutritional benefits are so powerful, Dr. Nicholas Perricone lists it as one of his top 10 Super Foods at Oprah's Web site.
Studies have shown that the Acai berry is one of the more nutritious and powerful foods on the planet. Harvested in the rainforests of Brazil, Acai tastes like a mix of berries and chocolate. Hidden within its purple pigment is what makes it the perfect energy fruit. Acai is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. You probably won't find it in your local supermarket, but you may have better luck at health food stores, or from the many products springing up online.
The benefits of Acai are purported to be good for detoxing and maintaining optimal health for balancing your pH level. Proper pH balance is vital to our immune health and for disease prevention and correction. Other benefits you'll enjoy:
- Acai has a high concentration of antioxidants that combat premature aging. It has 10 times the antioxidants that red grapes have, and as much as 30 times the anthocyanins of red wine. Anthocyanins may have antioxidant effects, possibly fighting cancer, diabetes, and bacterial infections, to name a few.
- Healthy monounsaturated fats, dietary fiber and phytosterols together help promote cardiovascular and digestive health.
- An amino acid complex in conjunction with valuable trace minerals, help with muscular health.
PRO
- Research concludes that there appear to be significant benefits to Acai
- On Dr. Perricone's list of Super Foods
- Natural ingredients have disease-fighting qualities
- Increases energy
- Offers antioxidants and amino acids
- Good source of fiber
- Organic products available
- Many juices and other products available in major grocers
CON
- Like other exotic products, Acai can be pricey
- Many imposters
INGREDIENTS
Each Acai product will vary in its ingredients. Be sure to look for Acai products that are all-natural, and do not include a long list of other ingredients. Acai in its purest form is most effective.
Acai comes in many forms, including the whole berry, juices, powders, capsules and pills, food items and more.
EXERCISE
Like any weight loss product, you should commit to a consistent exercise regimen. Be sure to look for Acai products that support a balanced and active lifestyle.
CONCLUSION
Exotic health foods, like the Acai berry, can provide untapped health benefits, if you can afford it. For whatever reason, these organic products are often on the steep side. But what else is more important than your health? If you can find room in your budget, a product like Acai is worth exploring.

+Thanks to the Amazon Rain forest we live longer. Taking fresh Acai berries outside of the Amazon is impossible and frozen Acai presents many limitations. As well as commonly produced Acai berry powder supplements, spray-dried and extracts are also available for purchase but tend to offer less health benefits.
posted Oct 30th, 2008 6:33 pmExamining the various Acai products available, choosing the right product makes a great deal of difference. When choosing any Acai berry product it is important to do your research. The Best Acai supplements can be found at www.pureacai.net and they sell wholesale so you can buy them cheaper to sell on.

+LATOYA,
posted Oct 30th, 2008 3:44 pmYou said you bought it at Winn Dixie. Is it the pill form, frozen form or what? I live in AL and shop at W/D and thought I would look for it there. Also, what kind of exercise plan are you on for 5 lbs/wk and is that including taking the Acai.
Thanks for any info.

+I have been drinking acai berry in a blend from MONA VIE from a few months now and it has turned my life around. I am so much healthier and happier than I have been in years. I am in Australia but but get MONA VIE direct shipped to us from the States. Lots of my friends' health has also improved - it's not cheap but it's cheaper than doctor's bills and time off work.

-Got my "sample" in the mail. It only has 15 pills in it, yet they want us to take 6 a day. So 2 days worth of pills? How am I supposed to feel the effects they claim will happen in just 2 days?

+I've been buying acai frozen puree from a local organic health food store called The Health Shoppe....a company called Sambazon makes this product and it comes in frozen packs that you can make smoothies out of... Well within a matter of a week after drinking the product, my skin was glowing and I had so much energy...I haven't heard of AcaiPure before, but if it has Acai power in it, it should work fine...Anyways I definitely recommend any Acai product to everyone!

+Read the fine print nothing in life is free. Most acai in its pure form is good for you and worth what it costs. Buyer beware and if you have a problem call your credit card company and charge it back. Or better yet read all the fine print.
