For years this fruit has only been known to certain residents of the south american rainforest; for whom it is a very important part of their food supply. But the weight loss effect is a big part of what is currently attracting a lot of attention. Two of our associates have tried losing weight with Acai berry extract and had remarkably different experiences.

The first one bought the supplement at her local health food store. The brand was called Powercleanse I believe. She took the recommended doses for a month and ended up losing only about 5 pounds. Obviously this is somewhat disappointing! The fact is, there are so many products out there now that you need to be sure you are getting decent quality. The herbal supplement business is unregulated in the United States and so you need deal with someone reputable.

The other person had better luck. She bought Acai Berry Select which she chose from the free trial site mentioned above. After three weeks, so far she has lost 12 pounds and is very satisfied. She noticed a decrease in appetite shortly after taking the capsules. She also swears she has more energy lately; but who knows what that means…it could be the supplements…or maybe she is just feeling better since she’s lost a few pounds…either way, its a good thing!

Remember that when you use supplements to aid in weight loss; changes to your eating habits and exercise levels are still very important to keep the weight off long term.

A benefit of using this fruit to slim down is that you are also getting all the other benefits of acai berries - the antioxidants, digestive aid, huge amount of vitamins and minerals, and even possible cancer protection - although that has only been supported by one study. You can read more about that below. 

Good luck with your weight loss plan!
