Acai Berry-Scam, or new weight loss miracle?

I know you have come across some ad on the internet, or TV, or Print, or any other ad platform for this new Acai Blast weight loss “miracle”. You may even have considered trying it out to see if it works. I decided to give it a shot for myself. Acai is offering a free trial (just pay for shipping, which is like 5 bucks) so I thought now is the perfect to try it, and share my results.

I have a bachelors degree in Fitness, Nutrition and Health, and am currently working on my Master’s degree in Exercise Physiology and Nutritional Sciences, so I am VERY skeptic when something comes out on the marketing and pushes all these claims.

Before I gave this a shot, I took a step back and looked at the product from a technical point of view. The Acai berry is a great super food full of nutrients and antioxidates. But how exactly will that help me lose weight?

Acai by itself is a super food, but it is mixed with Resveratrol extract, which is an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and helps repairs damaged cells. It also contains green tea extract, which is another great way to boost metabolism.

So what are my results?

Being a fit guy, it is hard for me to lose weight with diet products. I used this product to supplement my already in place diet and exercise routine and would you know, I actually lost 4 pounds. I know that isn’t huge, but I thought I didn’t have 4 lbs to lose.

I am very impressed with this product. It is simple, and straight foreward. Use it with your regular diet and exercise program and it can be very effective.

The best part is that if you are a skeptic like me, you can get a free trial. All you do is spend $5 for shipping (which is worth it). Give it a shot for yourself then leave a comment and let me know what you think. I love it so much I actually bought about shipment of it!
