Acai Berries to The Rescue!
2 Apr
We’re off to a GREAT start! Clark and I decided to give in to the ‘Acai Craze’ and purchase a bottle of 100% pure Acai Juice. We bantered about on whether to purchase the ‘free trials’ that are spread all over the internet, but after reading the reviews of those companies who offer the free trial – we thought it best to purchase local and to purchase 100% pure. Too many scams and possible scams to even bother dealing with and what better way to see if it works than to get the pure juice – right?
We got this bottle from Whole Foods (duh, who else 
) and already we feel the power of the berries! WOW! Awesome energy right away, and my mind feels more alert. I didn’t even know what to expect until after I had taken it and THEN read some faq’s about it. Clark found a great site that offers some exciting information about Acai Berries. Excerpts below:
Acai Berry and Mental State:
In addition to the many physical health benefits of acai including; improved digestion, strengthened immune system, weight loss, and heart disease prevention; acai is also an effective way to improve brain function, and fight of mental disorders.Acai, with the help of antioxidants, is able to lower the occurrence of xenobiotics, and other toxins. Xenobiotics are a leading cause of depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and other mental disorders. Acai is especially effective compared to other fruits, as it has the highest potency of antioxidants. So far, there hasn’t been a fruit discovered that can even come close.
The vitamins and omega fatty acids found in acai berriescan also strengthen the connection of neurotransmitters. This can lead to improved brain function, and helps one stay focused, even when we are bombarded with the many distractions of every day life.
The elimination of free radicals and other toxins can actually strengthen the brain allowing it to function more effectively. By doing so we can improve our sex lives, get better sleep, and reduce the risk of being diagnosed with the many mental illnesses people suffer from. Regular use of acai has even been linked to the prevention of Alzheimer’s disease, an illness that is often regarded as most difficult to cope with.
As far fetched as some of these claims may appear, modern science is constantly revealing more about the brain and how it works. This has lead to the discovery of many natural ways we can improve its function and fight off mental illness.

Acai Berry for Weight Loss:
There are many new, high tech, weight loss treatments available today, ranging from liposuction to gastric bypass surgery. Not that these aren’t viable weight loss solutions, but they are far from cheap, and can leave you feeling uncomfortable in your own skin.
The reason the acai berry’s popularity has skyrocketed in recent months is because you can obtain the same results as these expensive surgeries, without the discomfort. In fact, acai is actually a far superior weight loss solution. Not only can you lose significant amounts of weight in a short period of time, but it also promotes overall health and well being.
After just a week of regular use, users of acai report increased energy level, fast weight loss, and better mental focus. This all natural, weight loss, super fruit is possible due to the large amount of antioxidants that it contains. These antioxidants help eliminate toxins and free radicals that have serious negative effects on our body, even though we don’t necessarily always notice it. Sadly, we usually have to see the benefits before we realize how big of a toll these toxins take on our bodies.
Acai also tastes great, another reason behind this fruit’s popularity. Unfortunately, the acai berry perishes very quickly, and the only place you can find it is along the Amazon River. As a result, the only way to get it remotely fresh is to get it in juice or freeze dried pulp form.
Many manufacturers have been able to harness the power of acai in supplement form, often times combined with additional vitamins and other nutrients. These products are ideal for those with fast paced lifestyles that prevents them from being able to make juice, but are looking to lose weight quickly. More on Weight Loss…

Hi Rebecca
One of my friends gave me some Acai berry juice and my husband and i loved it!!!!
I swear by that berry. Love it.
BTW I love your blog!
This is a good article, but I think people will jump on the bandwagon and assume that just drinking acai berry juice and eating them will help them lose the weight. This can provide the proper diet for weightloss and proper exercise will help to increase peoples results. Effecient weightloss can not be achieved without diet and exercise.
I swear by that berry. Love it.
I’ve heard about this craze in the states and about the benefits of acai berries. There’s loads of very good things out there, but nothing will replace a good diet, decent sleep and regular exercise.

Good to know! It’s always reassuring to hear from others (real people) who have tried it successfully

Oh, I know… NOTHING works unless a good diet and exercise is part of the program
