Real information of Acai?

Acai berry/ colon cleanse diet? is it safe?

  • I keep seeing "blogs" about successful weight loss while on the acai berry pill/colon cleanse diet. I've been wanting to do a colon cleansing for quite a while and it seems that people have had a lot of success with this.. but I can't find any official information about it. I was wondering if anyone knew of it or have tried it? If so, which products are the safest and do you know of any possible guidelines or websites that discuss the guidelines of the diet? Is this just a scam/fad diet? any input will help! thanks

  • Answer:

    I have done this before and I hated it. I got the acai capsules and the herbal tablets for the colon cleanse and they were each taken every day working your way up to 2-3 times a day I think. To be fair I did not change my diet while doing this. I worked out pretty hard though. I maybe lost about 3 pounds at the end of two weeks. Least effective "diet" ever. The acai is snake oil. It does absolutely nothing for your appetite and it does not make your skin "glow" or whatever the internet says. It's not even a strong antioxidant. Good old blueberries have way more antioxidants. That's scientific fact. The only reason we even know the word acai is because of Oprah. The herbal tablets for the colon cleanse part will make you have a bowel movement 2 or 3 times a day which can be highly annoying if you have a job or have to drive a car because it's kind of an urgent feeling. It does not give you diareaha though. It's kind of hard to describe. It's different... Sorry to be graphic. If you still want to try it go for it, but I would strongly recommend combining it with a low calorie diet if you actually want to lose some weight.

Forget it, your colon is self cleansing, so called cleanses give you diarrhoea which can destroy the good flora in the colon. Acai berries are no more healthy than fresh berries in season bought locally. Acai's popularity has surged on bogus marketing claims, said Jonny Bowden, a certified nutrition specialist. Like most berries, acai has good nutritional qualities, but "there is not a drop of research" that supports marketing claims"
