Improve Fitness

The acai berry has taken front seat in the quest for fat loss.  This in part can be contributed to Oprah Winfrey and an assortment of other celebrities.  Seems that no matter where you turn today someone like Rachel Ray is talking about the Acai Berry.

A good example is this lady  “Kay Conrad” who has a website and says that she “lost 37 pounds” using Acai Berry along with a colon cleanse product.  In fact she says she lost 5 pounds the very first week.

I would hate to throw cold water on anyone but this is too good to be true!  Look at the picture comparison and the first thing you should notice is “that much change and fat loss while only losing 37 pounds.”  Perhaps my eyes are playing tricks on me, but, that looks like a lot more than 37 pounds.

The second thing to give thought too is the “lost 5 pounds the first week.”  Now I do not really have an argument with this statement.  I once lost 5 pounds in 3 days doing a cleanse, only drinking apple juice every 2 hours for 3 days.

Kay is promoting both the Acai Berry and the Colon Cleanse on her diet site.  Just click the link and receive a free 30 day trial of both products.   STOP before you get ripped off. There are thousands of people posting around the internet about being bitten by this free offer.  First its not free, you pay for shipping using your credit card.  Second you will be billed for the first bottle and the second bottle by the time you realize the scam.  Third, you will need to go through a huge amount of hoops to get this cash flow shut off.  DO NOT PURCHASE THROUGH THE FREE OFFER.

There is no known pill or supplement  that will create fat loss without proper nutrition and exercise.

So what are the benefits of using Acai Berry?

Regulates metabolism
Heart healthy
Antioxidant
Increased energy

Antioxidants are a good thing and will keep you feeling better and most fruits will give you an increase in energy.

Kay makes one statement under benefits that really caught my eye “Losing weight by replacing coffee and soda, which also keeps my teeth whiter!”  Well the coffee or tea would have a definite affect on the white teeth and stopping the soda would help drop weight, in case you have not noticed, soda is full of calories from sugar.  I bet you knew that.

The acai berry does have some known benefits and most of them could be yours through other means.

If you do want to use the acai berry as a health supplement, by all means, give it a try.  Go to Wal-mart or GNC and purchase it.  It will run you around $11.00 versus the free sample that will cost you $80.00 per bottle.
