Acai Berry
Been seeing some stuff about this Acai berry and its amazing effects, and how it was on Oprah with Dr Oz and whatnot even saw where a woman used acai berry 500 and total cleanse to lose around 40lbs... anywho was wondering if any of you had used or had experience with either and what ur general thoughts were?

I wouldnt put any more merit into Acai berry than I would into cranberry juice.

I've found acai berry juice to be very energizing. When I can afford to keep it around regularly, I start off the morning with a glass of it before I eat my breakfast to jumpstart my digestive system. Acai berry has a lot of antioxidants and has a very pleasant flavor; it's become one of my favorite fruits.

If oprah said it then it's a lie.
She supports Obama, which makes her a retard.

Because hes probably too young to vote for Obama for the right reasons. Obama is all for screwing over the wealthy so he can help everybody with they're hand out. I am all for helping people who NEED it, but not just people who ask for it.

Acai Berry
Hello everyone. I'm Charlie.
The much desired Acai berry is only 10% of the actual berry. The other 90% is made up of the seed or pit. The acai berry is harvested by the thousands and put through a process that separates the pulp from the seed to produce a thick, edible puree.

acai berry
The Acai berry can improve your cardiovascular health and can lower cholesterol, so it can definitely help you get healthy. The other vitamins and minerals found in acai can also cause your metabolism to speed up, making it easier for you to lose weight with exercise and a balanced diet.

honestly Any juice that is processed loses about 60-80% of its antioxidents. Its really simple its an antioxident locked up in a berry where it is not exposed to oxygen, Grind it up juice it squeeze it now it has been exposed to oxygen radicals in our very own air. Bam most of it has been used up.
Juice unless juiced at your house and drinking quickly is just fructose and some vitamins that are not antioxidents. ITs tastey but any health benefits fromt he berry can not be found in juice form, you would be better off buying the berry and eating it raw
