Acai Berry Frequently Asked Questions
The Acai Berry [pronounced a-sigh-y] is a small, black, round berry.
 |
Resembling smaller version of a grape, this fruit has a small amount of pulp surrounding a large seed at its center.
Acai berry fruit is used in a wide variety of health foods and other common consumer products like ice cream, and is the main food used with an acai berry diet.
Now we can combine acai with another top rated antioxidant, resveratrol, in a product called Acai Nutraburst. If you haven’t heard yet, learn more about resveratrol supplements at Project Swole.
Why Is Acai So Good For You?
I am psyched because I am always talking about the benefits of antioxidants, and in particular how acai is currently the food with the highest antioxidant concentration in the world. The ORAC rating for acai beats out even that of pomegranate and blueberries!
O.R.A.C.
Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is a method of measuring antioxidant capacities of different foods.
Foods with higher ORAC values are more effective in fighting the damages of daily living caused by free radicals.
 Acai Berry ORAC Rating |
Acai berry’s potent 4:1 extract ratio is the highest quality you will find anywhere. Taken as indicated, acai berry will reduce the impact of cell oxidization dramatically over even the smallest time span. The acai diet is truly a healthy diet for everyone.
Antioxidants
The antioxidant benefits of the acai berry rivals another semi-superfood, the blueberry. All the wonderful vitamin and mineral properties of the acai come together to have a positive effect on your health and overall well-being. Those looking to be healthy, protect from cancer, lose weight, or are generally uncomfortable in their own bodies, should give acai berry a try.
Read more about antioxidants at the Project Swole Antioxidant Bible.

Other acai berry benefits that are harder to quantify:
- Provides many important vitamins
- Minimizes inflammation
- Provides many powerful antioxidants
- Acai has high levels of fiber
- Fights cancerous cells
- Helps maintain healthy heart function
- Prevents atherosclerosis

“I used to fall asleep every afternoon after lunch, which made me fear eating lunch at all. I have so much more energy now that I started taking acai berry each morning!”
- Mary, NJ
“I used to suffer from chronic indigestion no matter what I ate, but now my digestive problems have gone away thanks to acai. From this point forward, I will use acai daily.”
- Jordan, WA
How the Acai Berry Facilitates Weight Loss
As far as the acai berry diet assisting with fat loss, acai can be a great weight loss aid. The berry’s natural concoction of essential fatty acids, fiber, phytosterols and amino acids work together to help your body burn fat more efficiently, process food more quickly and shed the unwanted pounds that you’d like to lose.
Fatty Acids
Our bodies need essential fatty acids to maintain proper health. Our bodies are unable to produce Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. It just so happens that these fatty acids are plentiful in acai berries.
Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids help increase your metabolism, which helps you to lose weight more quickly. In providing these Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, the acai berry can help you shed those extra pounds.
Fiber
Acai contains a generous amount of fiber, which helps your digestive tract to move food through your body. In this way, excess food is eliminated rather than absorbed and turned into fat. Similar to the fatty acids mentioned above, fiber also helps to satiate hunger.
Amino Acids
The Acai berry is rich with amino acids, which are widely known as the building blocks of protein. Your muscles need these amino acids in order to operate properly, and to regenerate from resistance training trauma or other exercise stress. Since the fatty acids in Acai increase your metabolism and the amino acids build your muscles, we can say that the nutrients in Acai berries help your body burn fat and energy more efficiently, causing you to lose weight.
Phytosterols
These building blocks of cell membranes help fortify your digestive tract, moving waste materials out and absorbing nutrients more efficiently. Acai berries are one possible source of Phytosterols.
Why Use Acai Berry Supplements?
“Adding Acai Berry to my daily supplements has helped me to lose 20 pounds in the last 3 months! I intend to use some kind of acai product for the rest of my life.”
- Samantha, CA
“Acai helped me get back down to a healthy weight in just 6 months. I have never had a better reason to go out and buy a whole new wardrobe.”
- John, CO
I personally enjoy the Acai Berry because of it’s antioxidant properties. In this day and age of phytoestrogens, chemicals, pesticides, and other nasty environmental toxins, we can’t get enough antioxidants.
You might have a use for an Acai Berry supplement if you are:
- trying to gain muscle
- trying to lose fat
- have any nasty ailments like arthritis, diabetes, or fibromyalgia
- trying to look and feel younger
- experiencing sexual dysfunction
- preparing for old age by taking all the health supplements you can get your hands on
- looking for either the holy grail or the fountain of youth
- experiencing digestive issues
- healing from an injury
I have a contact that can hook us all up with a free trial of Acai Berry. You might as well try it and see if you like it. Only positive things could possibly happen. If you think this isn’t for you, you could also try acai berry juice.

Cool. I love acai berries.
There is an organic food store near my house that sells frozen packets of the whole berries.
They taste great in my green smoothie.
The berries are really delicious.
Peace.
By Healism on Jul 19, 2008
Now no need to go for Abdominoplasty Surgery, Breast Reduction Surgery, Buttocks Augmentation etc., just eat Acai berry for weight loss? Wow! that’s a great news. Thanks Steve.
By Alex Costa - minimizeme.tv on Jul 19, 2008
Hi Steve,
thanks for checking my blog and you’re right about the plan, I need to figure out and put there but basically I’m just doing cardio and pay attention what I’m eating.
Since I’m from Brazil we know about açai for a long time, down there we use to eat frozen açai with granola and it’s awesome.
The only thing it’s that you shouldn’t eat too much because it has a lot of calories but if you eat the right amount it’s going to give you a lot of good nutrients.
By Steve on Jul 20, 2008
Healism:
Obviously acai berries are not the magic diet pill that lazy people are constantly striving to uncover. Given the nutritious value of acai, I certainly don’t see why anyone that can afford it wouldn’t add it to their supplement stash. Provided a moderate nutrition and exercise plan, acai can definitely assist fat loss.
By padmini on Jul 24, 2008
is this product available in bangalore/India?if so where?thanks
By Steve on Jul 24, 2008
Padmini:
I really don’t know if it’s available in India or not. Is it possible to order this product online and have it shipped to India? If so, I would go that route. Best of luck!
By Rodrigo Rocha on Aug 4, 2008
I´m interest to know, if this product have a distributor at Panama City, Central America.
If not, I want to know where at Miami, Florida, I can buy it at wholesale quantity and prices.
Please, if is not to dificult, answer me to my email.
Thanks and Regards
By Julie on Aug 6, 2008
Hi,I was just wondering if this diet pill called Acai Berry is available in Canada and if not when will it be available or where can A person buy it,thank you,Julie L
By Steve on Aug 7, 2008
Julie:
I’m afraid I don’t know what to tell you. My source only ships to the US from what I now understand. Maybe they have a whole foods or organic foods store near you that sells acai. That might be your best bet.
Rodrigo:
If you can receive mail in Florida, simply visit the links up above in this post, and order a large quantity. This will definitely be easiest for you.
By robin on Aug 16, 2008
how can i become a distributor of this acai berry product? is it possible to join the company and resell the product?
By Steve on Aug 17, 2008
Robin:
There is no MLM company or anything that I know of, that sells Extreme Acai. I point people to an affiliate marketing offer so they can hook up the free trial.
By Jane on Aug 21, 2008
Will acai berry really help lose weight?
By Steve on Aug 21, 2008
With a proper diet and exercise routine, both acai and green tea will help you lose weight faster. This is due to a wide variety of factors including increased energy, decreased appetite, thermogenic effects, fatty acid content, and much more.
By Maite on Aug 24, 2008
I have a Question, If have Tyroid problems I don’t have my tyroid and i take Syntroid (medication for tyroid) Can i still used acai berry power 500?
By Lesia on Aug 24, 2008
Hey, does any one know where in Canada you can buy any source of non-diluted acai berries. Let me know.
Thanks,
Lesia
By Steve on Aug 25, 2008
Maite:
I am unable to address any questions related to medicine or medication. Your personal physician would be the best person to ask. I will say this though: acai berry is just a fruit, so if you stick with the Extreme Acai product that I have listed in this post, you should be all set. Using a 100% acai product is basically the same as eating blueberries.
Lesia:
I don’t know what to tell you. Hunt down an organic food store and you should find what you need.

when is the best time to take this acai berry pill???
By Modupe Bello on Aug 26, 2008
How can I get Extreme Acaia Berry in Nigeria, Africa?.
I am currently in the USA. if I order Extreme Acai Berry today. Can I get it delivered to my Atlanta address by the 31st of August, 2008?
Should I choose to be a distributor for Extreme Acai Berry for Africa or West Africa, how do I go about this ?
By Steve on Aug 27, 2008
Ismaray:
Any time is a good time. I choose to take most of my daily supplements in the morning.
Modupe:
I do not know of a way to get this product shipped to Nigeria. I also have no control over shipping times for Extreme Acai, your best bet is to order it ASAP. I am also not a distributor, nor do I know how to become a distributor. If you wish to be an online affiliate for this product, you can find the campaign in several affiliate networks. I use Hydra Network.
By saba on Sep 9, 2008
are these acai berries available in pakistan
By Steve on Sep 9, 2008
Saba:
I have absolutely no idea. Sorry. I only know how to get acai supplements in the US.
By jessica on Sep 9, 2008
hi,
am i required to take both pills at one time or take one pill twice a day?
By Steve on Sep 9, 2008
Jessica:
You might as well take one in the morning and one at night, as long as you remember to take them. Some people prefer to take their supplements all at once.

Does acai help you lost weight like it claims? and how does it help you flush toxins?
By Barry Acai on Sep 11, 2008
Can you explain how acai works?
By Ann on Sep 12, 2008
I purchased acai-berry in liquid form from a health food store in Canada.
By Dee on Sep 15, 2008
Hi,
I hope this Extreme acai-berry would not reduce my breast while trying to lose weight?
By Tonya on Sep 20, 2008
HOW DO YOU TAKE THIS PILL. THE BOTTLE SAYS MELT AWAY TABLET….I SWALLOWED MY FIRST ONE BUT AM I SUPPOSE TO LET IT DISSOLVE ON MY TONGUE IT TASTES REALLY GOOD…
By michele bens on Sep 21, 2008
I DON’T KNOW EVERYONE IS SAYING IT TASTE GOOD I JUST BOUGHT NUTRITION STYLE ACAI BERRY CAPSUALS AND I CAN’T WAIT TO GET THEM SOWN THEY TASTE TERRIBLE. I WONDER IF THEY’RE BAD
By Steve on Sep 21, 2008
Everyone who wants to know how and why acai works, re-read this post and then check out the following 3 pages:
1) Acai Berry Info
2) More Acai Berry Info
3) The Best Acai Berry Product
By Steve on Sep 21, 2008
Dee:
I certainly hope it doesn’t have that effect on you. I wouldn’t expect it to. Using acai is just like eating other berries.
Tonya:
You choose. Just follow the instruction on the bottle if you have any questions.
Michele:
You made the mistake of purchasing an inferior acai supplement. Too bad you didn’t read about it on Project Swole first.
By Sabrina on Sep 24, 2008
Which brand of this supplement would you recommended?
By Cassie on Sep 27, 2008
I’m wondering where you reccommend buying the supplements from. I’ve read numerous complaints about companies offering free trials and then charging peoples credit cards. I would like to try them, but I don’t want to get ripped off.
By Steve on Sep 27, 2008
Sabrina and Cassie:
I would order Extreme Acai from one of the links in the body of this post. You will pay $3.95 for shipping and then if you don’t wish to continue to receive the product, you can cancel all reorders. It’s not that hard and they won’t “rip you off” if you just follow the instructions.
By Shannon on Sep 29, 2008
I was wondering, how do you purchase this product after you have done the free trial? Because I am wanting to but it so I can have a full bottle and start loosing weight.
Thanks
By Steve on Sep 29, 2008
Shannon:
The company that sent you the free trial will probably ship you the next bottle if you don’t cancel your order. The way it’s set up is that they will just mail your next bottle to you and automatically bill your CC if you don’t cancel. I find this to be the easiest way to restock my supply.
By MzG960 on Sep 29, 2008
HEY STEVE
ACAI BERRY TABLETS THE BOTTLE SAID CLEANSING
SOLUTION DOES THIS MEAN I WILL BE IN THE BATHROOM ALOT
By Shannon on Sep 30, 2008
How much does the bottle cost, how many pills are there and also how long does a bottle last?
By Steve on Oct 3, 2008
Shannon:
The free trial is $3.95 and should last about 14 days. Normally it’s a month supply.
MzG960:
I don’t find myself in the bathroom any more often than usual. Extreme Acai is not really a ‘cleansing solution’ so to speak… I think they do that for the marketing effect.
By IzzY on Oct 4, 2008
I went ahead and ordered the free 15 day trial bottle of an acai berry supplement. I am trying to lose weight. I know the acai berry has a lot of nutritional value, but will it help me lose weight as rapidly as all the websites claim?
By Steve on Oct 6, 2008
IzzY:
I can’t predict how the supplement will work for you. I feel more energy when using it, but I already eat well and exercise so I can’t attribute a certain % of my progress to acai. Acai is something that I will use every day for the rest of my life, just like a multivitamin, in order to reap the antioxidant benefits.
By Jessica on Oct 8, 2008
I ordered the free trial. but im looking at all these different websites with all these different names saying this pic is me before and after acai berry! AND THEY ARE ALL THE SAME PICTURE im wondering if this is a scam
By Steve on Oct 8, 2008
Jessica:
I know what you are talking about. Some of the websites are laurasweightloss.com and beckysweightloss.com. These are just single page fake blogs that some affiliate marketers use as landing pages for their Adwords pay-per-click campaigns. It doesn’t make Extreme Acai a scam, but I doubt that those websites are legit. Acai is still a bad ass antioxidant.
By VALERI on Oct 8, 2008
Steve does it really work, or does it depend on the person?
By Steve on Oct 8, 2008
Valeri:
Acai berries are what they are. This is a supplement that will fortify your body with powerful antioxidants. These antioxidants will keep you looking and feeling young through the years. There’s no denying the fact behind the fruit.
Extreme Acai is not a magical weight loss pill that will make you shed 20 pounds in one week. I hope no one is ordering it with that expectation in mind. This product WILL help you lose weight faster and more efficiently due to it’s nutrient concentration, especially if you employ a healthy diet and moderate exercise plan.
I’ll say it again… Extreme Acai is NOT a magical weight loss pill. It will help you lose weight faster and will combat those nasty free radicals that make us look, feel, and act so much older.
By tina on Oct 9, 2008
can you get the acai supplement in stores?
By Kary on Oct 9, 2008
Do i really have to take 2 pills a day or can i just take 1 a day.
I work out 4 times a day and watch how many calories i eat a day.
What advice can you give me?
By Lana on Oct 9, 2008
Can you buy it in Western Canada?
By Steve on Oct 10, 2008
tina:
You can’t get Extreme Acai in store. Most of the acai supplements sold in stores are crap. Stay away from the acai juices if you are looking for a sugar free acai product with maximum nutrition.
Kary:
If you want to get 2 pills worth of antioxidants, take 2 pills. Otherwise take 1. Now, why on Earth would you workout 4 times a day? My only advice to you is to stop working out 4 times a day. That’s weird unless you are a professional athlete.
Lana:
I don’t believe they ship to Canada, but I could be wrong.
By Julie on Oct 15, 2008
Steve or anyone..I just received my free-trial and they are melt-away tabs? Feels weird just letting them sit in my mouth like candy…is this stuff legit?
By Steve on Oct 15, 2008
Julie:
Your mouth has a higher nutrient absorption potential than your stomach. The fact that the antioxidants just sit in your mouth and dissolve, says alot about the formulation of the uptake process of this supplement. If they didn’t really care, they would have just manufactured a solid, hard pill. Another place that has extremely high absorption is your eye ball, but I don’t think you want to put the acai in your eye.
By Necale Davis on Oct 15, 2008
I just recieved the supplement melt away tablets and dont know how to take them. I also would like to know what other things, as far as excercising or eating healthy, might I need to do in order to loose weight effectively.
By Steve on Oct 15, 2008
Necale:
Just let the tablets dissolve in your mouth. You should exercise at least 3 times a week for at least 30 minutes per session. You should eat a low carb, low fat, moderate protein diet, with a total calorie count plus or minus 14 x your target bodyweight. This is just a basis to start. For more accurate helpful information search my diet and exercise articles and find a strategy that makes sense to you.
By Julie on Oct 15, 2008
Steve, thanks! I know you mentioned earlier in this blog that this is not a ‘magic’ diet pill..But can we expect weight loss with this at all? Or is this pretty much just a ‘health vitamin/supplement’? Don’t get me wrong I’d love for you to tell me I’m goign to lose weight fast but just the honest truth will work too…thanks! Also, I’m not really that overweight, maybe about 10-15lbs or so, not obese..Ok I’m just looking for answers here… thanks!
By Steve on Oct 16, 2008
Julie:
Acai will help you lose weight faster as long as you follow a decent exercise and nutrition program. Where you might have lost 2 pounds, on acai you could lose 3 or 4. It is not as powerful a weight loss supplement as say Biotest Hot Rox or ephedra, but it will help. Aside from that, it is a most excellent antioxidant supplement. See if it gives you more energy at the end of your trial.
By Jen on Oct 16, 2008
So far I’ve enjoyed Extreme Acai. Like you say, it’s not a magical weight loss pill, but I do seem to have more energy since I started using it. Thanks Project Swole!
By Lowest Price Blinds on Oct 17, 2008
Hi
Acai really does sound like a great food. I’m going to get the free trial to see how I feel taking acai every day. Thanks for the recommendations!
By Alicia on Oct 19, 2008
I’m trying out Wu Yi tea for the health & energy business to aid in a change in lifestyle. It benefits that it claims to have are very similar to those of the acai (whether berry or supplement). I would prefer to buy the actual berries, but repaying student loans leaves virtually no wiggle room for free spending.
I’m wondering if I would get a negative effect from mixing the tea & the acai supplement. Nausea from the metabolism boost or too much “detoxification” and antioxidants. I would imagine that the answer is no, but everyone tells you that it’s best to have everything in moderation!
By Geri on Oct 20, 2008
Hi
Thanks for providing this great information about Extreme Acai. After reading your 2 acai articles and your antioxidant article, I have a good idea of what acai is and does. I understand that it’s not a magical weight loss pill, but it sure does give me extra energy. I might not continue to use Extreme Acai long term, but I will try to incorporate acai into my diet somehow.
By barbara on Oct 20, 2008
it seems to give me more energy throughout the day. I don’t think I will continue using this brand, only because it can get expensive after the free trial, but thank you for opening my eyes to acai.
By Steve on Oct 21, 2008
ATTENTION!!
For those of you who had some trouble reaching Extreme Acai’s call center, I spoke with my affiliate manager, who spoke with the Extreme Acai company, and they reported back that they just revamped their call center. If you still can’t get through, please send me either your email address or your phone number and I will forward that information directly to Extreme Acai. I will not post any of your personal information online. Thanks.
By Yuliana on Oct 22, 2008
I just received my shipment yesterday. I have not taken a pill yet. I read the instructions and it says to take 2 pills 30 minutes before every meal.Now does this make is 6 pills a day since we have three meals or should I take 1 in the morning and 1 in the evening. Also there is 15 tablets is this enough for a 14 day trail?
By Jamie on Oct 22, 2008
** URL removed by Admin **
Is this the right web address to purchase Extreme Acai Berry? it was from this page?
By Steve on Oct 22, 2008
Yuliana:
Most people take either 1 in the morning, 1 in the morning and 1 at night, or 2 in the morning. It’s really up to you. Obviously if you take 2 a day you will only have enough for 7.5 days. I don’t know that you will see HUGE results from just a 14 day trial, but give it a shot and see if you have more energy for those 14 days.
Jamie:
The URL you provided was correct. I just prefer to have all my Extreme Acai purchases go through my Extreme Acai order page. Thanks for checking!
By Sue on Oct 22, 2008
Steve, in one post you told the person (in Canada I believe) to check at a health food store for acai. Then, in another post you said most acai products sold in stores “are crap.” Which is it?
Sue
By Steve on Oct 22, 2008
Sue:
Most acai products sold in stores ARE crap. The juices are full of sugar and some of the other products have fillers and other ingredients mixed in. When talking about a pure 100% acai product, Extreme Acai is the way to go unless you can find an alternative 100% acai product at your local store. When I tried to find one, I traveled to a number of stores one Sunday and I couldn’t find anything worth buying.
Aside from that, I don’t believe Extreme Acai ships to Canada, although that may have changed. For people who can’t have Extreme Acai shipped to them, I say check your local health food store for the best alternative.
By Lana on Oct 23, 2008
They do ship to Canada. I did finally get my product, it just came yeasterday. I’m lookinbg forward to trying it.
By Catalina on Oct 24, 2008
Does anyone know a different website for this product that takes amex????
By Sarah on Oct 28, 2008
Hi. I was wondering. I am 160lbs and I really would like to get down to 130 or so. I ordered my trial today, but I was curious. Is there any way I would lose a drastic, unhealthy amount of weight, past 130, by accident?
By Steve on Oct 28, 2008
Lana:
Great! Thanks for the info about Canadian shipping.
Catalina:
I don’t know of a way to order Extreme Acai or Acai Slim with Amex. Sorry.
Sarah:
No, there is no way you will lose 30 lbs by accident.
By anthony on Oct 28, 2008
i have high blood pressure and i also take cholesterol medication(synthriod). are there any known side effects to also take EXTREME ACAI BERRY pills? thank you in advance for any information
By elizabeth on Oct 28, 2008
This sounds really interesting, but i was wondering if this is a diet PILL that will make you re-gain weight like the others, or is it just like vitamin suppliments?
By Steve on Oct 29, 2008
Anthony:
I wish to defer all medical questions to your doctor. I am not an authorized medical professional. That being said, acai is a fruit just like blueberries. Using Extreme Acai or Acai Slim is the same as taking a concentrated blueberry supplement. It shouldn’t interfere.
By Steve on Oct 29, 2008
Elizabeth:
This is NOT a magic diet pill that will miraculously melt away the pounds. It will HELP you lose weight FASTER if you are already on a proper exercise and nutrition plan. If you don’t exercise and you eat crap food, you might see a little weight loss, but probably not like 20 pounds in a month. Because of this, it is also NOT a supplement that will cause you to gain weight back when you stop using it. However if you stop dieting and exercising, then yes the weight will probably come back.
Think of Extreme Acai / Acai Slim as an antioxidant or vitamin supplement.
By Renee on Oct 29, 2008
How much acai berry can I safely take per day?
By Mrs. Sooker on Oct 30, 2008
A friend gave me this stuff after finding out she was pregnant & could no longer use it. I really liked it. I exercised for 30 mins, 5 days a week & ate somewhat sensibly- I just didn’t over do the “somewhat”. When it came time for more, I could not find where this product is in anyone’s price range!! I just think this company would benefit from selling in a store, like Costco, I find great supplements for a great price there! So, I just had to state that this is in fact a wonderful product, but too expensive! ~Thanks~
By Steve on Oct 30, 2008
Renee:
Whatever product you use, just take one serving a day. I currently use a 500 mg acai capsule supplement, and I can take 2 a day if I so choose. Acai is good for you so it’s not like you can take too much as long as you don’t way overboard, which should be obvious.
If you have Extreme Acai or Acai Slim I believe you can take 1 to 2 a day.
By Steve on Oct 30, 2008
Mrs. Sooker:
You are right, certain brands of acai can get expensive. Extreme Acai and Acai Slim aren’t very cheap to continue to use long term. After you try the free trial of Acai Slim you can consider trying a product from this new company I found.
I’ve never promoted juice products before, but I found this company that totally sells quality acai juice products. Check it out here: high quality Sambazon acai products. I intend to publish a full post about this company and their products very soon. Best wishes!
By Shannon on Oct 30, 2008
When is a good time to take the acai berry supplement for the best results? I was just wondering because I am also taking total clensing. They say together they work really well. So I didn’t know when to take them.
By Steve on Oct 30, 2008
Shannon:
There is really no best time. I prefer to take my supplements in the morning, especially if they are designed to make you feel energized, healthy, and awake. I wouldn’t want to feel energized right before bed. Just take all your supplements in the morning and if you feel particularly drowsy in the afternoon or you need more energy before a workout, take another dose then too.
By maria purkis on Oct 31, 2008
I’ve been using acai for a couple months now, and I think it’s great! I feel like I have more energy and that I am healthier all over to boot. Thanks for all the great info.
By gingin on Nov 1, 2008
so if you just went on like usually eating normal but not exactly healthy will you see any results or is it just like every other pill that you have to eat healthy and excersize to eat healthy?

Like the feather that broke the camel’s back, starting to use acai everyday could be the kick-start that your regular diet needs to start losing weight. I’m sure you will lose it slowly, maybe a couple pounds a week at most, but the nutrients in acai are definitely conducive to natural fat loss.

Hi Steve
I have just started drinking acai berry and green tea….it tastes lovely. Can you tell me how many cups a day I should not exceed. The taste is so good I might replace my ordinary decaf brand with this permanently. I am a non insulin, medicated diabetic. Are there any cautionary advice pages that I can read? Thank you
By Steve on Nov 3, 2008
Doreen:
Hi! Thanks for writing.
I don’t think you should worry about drinking too much acai and green tea. I believe if you drink like 10 cups you will probably be jittery and possibly develop a diarrhea issue, but otherwise I’m sure you’ll be fine. If you have serious concerns you’d be better off asking your doctor.
By AR on Nov 6, 2008
“It’s” as in “its center” should NOT have an apostrophe. (Otherwise it reads “it is center.”)
By Steve on Nov 6, 2008
AR:
You sure are right! It’s tough being my own proofreader sometimes. Thanks. =)
By Tammy Lee on Nov 18, 2008
How odd my comments were removed from November 12, in which I asked if the products I purchased from GNC – To GO Green Products as well as Aci Blast have been removed. In the comment I asked if these products were ligitimate. Does this web site have something to hide by deleting my comments and my question about another product? I see where other have asked about other procducts or are they actually employee commentary?
By Steve on Nov 18, 2008
Tammy:
Don’t get flustered girl. I must have deleted your other post with the glut of spam I’ve been receiving. People seem to think it’s a good idea to submit comments that look like “jsoe;nciojdouijkhksd” just because they want to get their link published.
To answer your question about these other products, I haven’t used them. Acai Blast is probably just another acai juice that’s filled with unnecessary sugar. I did a Google search for “acai blast” but didn’t come up with anything useful. If anyone has any comments on these products, please let us all know.
As far as acai juice products go, I am addicted to the Sambazon products, specifically the Antioxidant Trinity. I could drink 3 of these a day. You might get lucky and find one in your local supermarket, or you can just click on the links here: Sambazon Acai – The BEST Acai Juice Ever and order some directly from the manufacturer.
I also don’t have any direct employees. There’s me (Steve) and a couple people who help me out once in a while, but no employees.

Help!!! im tried of all the latest fade diets i really need help. I recently bought the green tea diet to only have a coworker laugh at me because he is from Hong Kong and said that he could have gotten me the same tea for practically penniess. which only help me lose body water. So please does this really work?? help
By Steve on Nov 19, 2008
lynda:
I’ve said it before and I’ll set it yet again… acai is not a weight loss miracle drug. If you already eat well and exercise 3 or more times a week, adding acai to your diet will help you lose fat quicker. If you don’t do anything and you eat like crap, adding acai to your diet MIGHT help you lose a couple pounds, but then again it might not.
Taking an acai supplement merely guarantees that you are consuming the very best antioxidant rich food on the planet.
Will it give you more energy? Probably.
Will it help you lose fat? Probably.
Will it fight free radicals? Yes.
Can I guarantee anything? No.
Give Acai Slim a free trial, it can’t hurt and can only help. I just can’t guarantee anything. I do enjoy the Sambazon acai products, and I also use an acai pill supplement… I’m happy with both of them and I’m sure you will be too.
By Erica on Nov 20, 2008
I would like to know if drinking the juice would be just as effective as taking the pills, of course I have the trial, will drinking the juice, eating healthy and exercising regularly give good weight lose results.
Thank you for your feedback.
By Steve on Nov 21, 2008
Erica:
The only reason I promote the pills over the juice, is because the juice always has around 20 grams of sugar per serving or more. With some juice products, like those offered by Sambazon, the sugar is naturally occurring in the fruit. Most other juices have either added sugar, or diluted the juice so that it’s not even worth drinking for antioxidant benefits. In comparison, there are very few calories in the pills.
By Jillian on Nov 22, 2008
Hello Steve
Please help me
i just bought the Acai Berry MAXX Free Trial. It has 60 capsules, 600 mg.
but i’m having trouble with something…
On one side of the bottle, it says, “Suggested Use: Take two Capsules per day” And on the other side, it says, “Serving size: One Capsule”
lol which one do i follow by?
Or to be more specific,
How many milligrams (capsules) should i take everyday for it to actually come into effect?
also, what’s the best time to take them?
thanks! Really appreciate it.
By Maria on Nov 22, 2008
I found out these two capsules, one is Slimquick Diet – Naturals – Designed for Women – 6 Ways Women Lose Weight with Green Tea, Pomegranate & Acai and the other is Natrol Acai 1000 mg, Vegetarian Capsules, so I want to know which one you recommend, because I tried to find Extrem Acai Berry here in California and didn’t find it.
By Steve on Nov 22, 2008
Jillian:
My acai caps have 500mg per cap. I use two caps every morning. You should too. Either that or one cap in the AM and one in the PM.
Maria:
You won’t find Extreme Acai in stores. In fact you won’t find Extreme Acai online anymore either. Click on one of the images or links on this site, specifically in this article, and you will be taken to the free trial for Acai Slim. This is the one you should order. If you’d rather get a juice product, go to the Sambazon acai juice page.
By Jillian on Nov 22, 2008
Thanks!
By Brenda on Nov 24, 2008
ok so what’s the best way to do this so I can see some immidiate results?
By Steve on Nov 25, 2008
Brenda:
Step 1: Put together a 4-5 day per week workout plan with both weight training (3 days) and high intensity cardio work (2-3 days).
Step 2: Don’t eat more calories than your goal weight * 14. Want to weigh 120? Eat less than 1600 calories a day. Avoid sugar and saturated/trans fats.
Step 3: Buy an acai supplement. Use 1 gram (1000 mg) daily. Choose either Acai Slim or Sambazon for your acai supplement.
By oprah and rachel ray love acai berry on Nov 26, 2008
I think acai berry juice is a no lose situation. The juice tastes ok, especially if cut with water. There are no side-effects and it is really good for you.
By Jasna on Nov 28, 2008
How can I buy an Accai Berry in Bosnia. Is there any on-line shoping for European countries?
By Steve on Nov 28, 2008
Jasna:
You might be able to purchase acai products from Sambazon, to ship to Bosnia. Give it a try.
By Mildred Theijsen on Nov 28, 2008
How can I order this product?
By Steve on Nov 28, 2008
Just click on one of the images or links up in the body of this post. It will take you to the sign up page to order the free trial. Or just click here: Acai Berry Free Trial
By TIna on Dec 1, 2008
If you stop taking acai a-slim after some time, will you start to re-gain the weight you have lost before ?
By DOLLY ADEYINKA on Dec 1, 2008
Pls,I would like to know if I can buy the Acai-berry product here in Britain.I really want to buy the product before Christmas.
By Steve on Dec 1, 2008
Your best bet when ordering from Britain is to order through the Sambazon acai store. Certain products on there you can order internationally, but they don’t have any free trials. Let me know if that works for you.
By anna on Dec 2, 2008
Hi Steve,
I went to a free trial site that you recommend,using your link, but it does NOT allow you to put shipping information in CANADA! so, obviously, I could not order from that particular site, unfortunatelly But previously I ordered free trial from the site below and just received the trial bottle (today)
Is that a trusted site, have you heard of it??
https://www.extremeacaiberry.com/ca/index.php?affID=68&subaffID=235806774&opt=400963
As it seems it shows an exact same product as your “pink” link above, with Extreme Acai Berry, same picture, name etc.
(Why, by the way, when you click on YOUR link, it suddenly shows a different package called Acai SLIM or something?
Thank you in advance for reply
By Steve on Dec 3, 2008
Anna:
I no longer promote Extreme Acai. The Extreme Acai website now sells Acai Berry Power 500, which I have read numerous complaints about online. So instead I have switched to Acai Slim, which is also a free trial of a product that is very similar to Extreme Acai. Please do not use that link you listed above (extremeacaiberry.com) to order your free trial.
Furthermore, if you want to place an order with Sambazon, this is what they have to say about over seas orders, by which it appears they mean anything outside the US:
By gauri on Dec 3, 2008
hi, i would likt to konw how to order it from India? will you plz help me?
Gauri, india
By Steve on Dec 3, 2008
gauri:
They only way I know to order acai products overseas, is to order through Sambazon using the information I posted two comments ago.
By Hazel on Dec 4, 2008
Is there a product that does not contain green tea extract. Tea in any form increases my RLS.
By Steve on Dec 4, 2008
Hazel:
I don’t think Acai Slim has any green tea extract. You could also check out the Sambazon products, as I don’t believe they have anything to do with green tea.
By Rachael on Dec 6, 2008
I recently got the free trial of total cleanse (which i don’t recommend because u can’t cancel it.) but it made my stomach cramp. I’m just wondering if these .will do the same i just recieved my trial of acai berry and i was just wondering if the same thing might happen, i just would hate for it to start while i’m at work
By Steve on Dec 6, 2008
Rachael:
All I can say is that acai definitely doesn’t make me cramp up. I take the caps and drink the juice from time to time without gastrointestinal distress.
By Carol Smith on Dec 6, 2008
I am currently residing in dubai and tried to get hold of Acai berry juice here…I would like to know where I can get it in England also as I am due to go home at Christmas so I could try it while I am there.
I also want to know how to become a distributor of the product here in Dubai as I think it would make a successful business here in dubai as it has a high e pat comunity.
By Jenny on Dec 9, 2008
Should I drink 2 in the morning or at night? Also want to drink the Colon Cleanse. Please let me know the correct way of drinking it. I was told should be with the stomach full.
By Steve on Dec 9, 2008
Jenny:
I’m not sure what makes people think I am an expert on all these different products. I don’t quite know what you are going to “drink” twice during the day. I also have no idea what the Colon Cleanse product is, or how you should take it.
All I have to say is this: I take 1000 mg of acai pills each day, sort of like a vitamin. I also drink acai juice whenever I happen to have it in stock. Colon Cleanse sounds like it might make you poop, so I wouldn’t take a full serving of it with a full serving of acai. Maybe you could take your Cleanse at night so you’ll wake up in the morning and evacuate your digestive tract. Otherwise I recommend reading the instructions on the bottle. Good luck!
By Francisca on Dec 11, 2008
Is this Acai Berry Supplement available in stores or only online?
By Sarah on Dec 13, 2008
Is there an age limit for Acai Slim?
By silvia on Dec 14, 2008
hi steve im so excited about this acai berry,i was just wondering if this pill have any side effects and how long i have to take for?im just waiting for my free trial to get here i cant wait to try it.
By Steve on Dec 14, 2008
Francisca:
Acai supplements are available online and in stores. I personally recommend the acai product that you can order from this page, but you might be lucky enough to find a good acai pill supplement in the stores.
Sarah: No age limit. Acai is a fruit.
silvia:
No side effects that I am aware of. Acai is something that you should take for the rest of your life in order to benefit from its awesome antioxidant properties.
By bob on Dec 14, 2008
If i was too look for Acai Berry in the stores,…..what is maximun amount of sugar content i should be looking for?,..thanks

By sana butt on Dec 15, 2008
are acai berries avilable in lahore,pakistan.if yes,where?
By Madeeha khan on Dec 15, 2008
hey i want to know if this product is available in pakistan???? i really wana purchase i…
By Steve on Dec 15, 2008
bob:
Look for a 100% pure, concentrated acai juice. You want something that has no more than about 20 grams of sugar to 500 mg of acai. Sambazon Acai fits the bill perfectly if you are looking for acai juice. Find out more here: best acai juice.
neha: I know nothing about your Acai Burn.
sana butt and Madeeha khan:
The only way to know to order acai internationally, is to try calling Sambazon and setting up an oversea shipment. That’s the best I can do.
By Anna H on Dec 16, 2008
I have a question. I bought the Acai Blast from GNC. Is this the weight loss on or just the vitimin for vegans? I am a vegan as well but I already take vitimins to help me with that along with a few other medications. I just had a baby and want to lose weight! I am just wondering if I have gotten the right kind of Acai.
Thanks so much, Anna
By Ashley on Dec 16, 2008
steve,
i ordered a free trial of the Acai berry online. i received the extreme acai berry which says the trial(the long brown pill) and then the melt away tablets(small purple pills).
my question is do i take both at once? or do i take one bottle til its done then the other? and if i take both at one time how many of each? i am just confused on my dosage and dont want to take too many or not enough.
thank you
Ashley
By ashufta on Dec 17, 2008
Please i need to know how can i buy these tablets in dubai ,where can i get them from .Kindly mail me on ashuftag@yahoo.com .I really want to get them ASAP
By ashufta on Dec 17, 2008
Also is juice better for weight loss or the tablets ,wat should i go for im really confused .What are the things i need to look into before purchasing the juice or the tablets.
By Steve on Dec 17, 2008
Anna:
I am not familiar with the product Acai Blast, but it’s probably fine.
Ashley:
All I know is that you should get at least 1000 mg of acai each day. For some acai products, that’s 2 capsules.
Ashufta:
If you want to get acai shipped internationally, please contact Sambazon acai and ask them about over seas shipments. Furthermore, the pills are better than the juice for weight loss since the pills have far fewer calories than the juice. Look for 100% acai supplements, and make sure your juice has no added sugar. Sambazon Acai products are perfect for this.
By Ashley on Dec 17, 2008
steve,
thank you for the response.
do i take 2 of each pill then?
By Steve on Dec 17, 2008
ashley:
If 2 pills adds up to between 800 – 1000 mg of acai, take 2 pills. That’s the best I can do.
By victoria on Dec 19, 2008
dear steve.
i got my acai berry in the mail and i am very excited to use it!
i just hoping i dont use too much.
there are like 3 bottles of the stuff.
do u take all of them together?
they are all so different. i dont know what to take.
thanks!!
By jade on Dec 31, 2008
where do you get Acai Berry in US….
By Steve on Dec 31, 2008
Victoria:
I’m not sure what you got with those 3 bottles. Just make sure you’re getting about 1000 mg of acai a day.
Jade:
Either order a free trial online by clicking on a link in this article, order some Sambazon products by clicking on the link in the Sambazon acai juice article, or find some in your local grocery store if you can but don’t trust the watered down sports drink versions as they don’t contain much acai.
By jade on Jan 1, 2009
do they have any pill to take or just sport drink
By Steve on Jan 1, 2009
Jade:
The juice products from Sambazon are great. It’s the non-Sambazon juice products in stores that I don’t trust.
By Herbalife on Jan 2, 2009
Acai berry is worth a try!
By Hanan on Jan 2, 2009
How can I order 5 months supply at one time. I work overseas for long periods, I want to have enough of the berries while I’m away from home.
By Steve on Jan 2, 2009
Hanan:
If you want to order in bulk, I recommend you order through the Sambazon acai page. You won’t be able to get berries, but you can get powders, juices, pills, and more. Check it out and let me know if that meets your needs.
By Sue on Jan 7, 2009
how many times a day do I take Acai berry pillZ?
By Chinenye on Jan 8, 2009
Hi,
Quick, can people who have cancer and who are currently on cancer drugs like tamoxifen or arimidex or xoladex for a five year period take acai berry
By Steve on Jan 8, 2009
Sue:
Once or twice. Whatever equals 1000mg
Chinenye:
You should ask your doctor these questions, not me. If I were to guess, I’d say there would not be an issue as long as you stick to 100% acai. It’s just like eating fruit.
By Dulce on Jan 8, 2009
how old do you need to be to try this Acai Berry product? Thanks
By Steve on Jan 8, 2009
Dulce:
There is no age limit. Acai is fruit. If you have any concerns, please contact your doctor. Thanks!
By delores on Jan 11, 2009
when you are taking acai berry capsules can you take colon cleansers as well at the same time?
By S V on Jan 12, 2009
All these free trial links are not allowing me to ship out the product into India..Help…
By Michelle on Jan 13, 2009
I just swallowed my acid berry was not sure how to take is this okay? I now understand I am to let them melt in my mouth..oops..
Please let me know if I should expect a side affect from this mistake..
Thank you Michelle
By Jade on Jan 14, 2009
Hi,
Does the Acai liquid work just as well as the pill? I bought the Acai liquid in the wine-shaped bottle.
Should the liquid be taken once, or twice a day?
Also, is it true that this berry can make your hair grow more quickly?
Thanks,
Jade
By Karen on Jan 14, 2009
I just started taking Acai Berry Pure but ordered it from Advance Wellnes and look up the site and they have been charging people for the whole bottle instead of for the trial size. Can you update anything on this.
By Steve on Jan 14, 2009
Delores:
You can take acai and colon cleanse at the same time. If you find yourself going to the bathroom too often, back off on the colon cleanse.
SV:
I only know that you can ship Sambazon products to India, but not any of the free trials.
Michelle:
You will be fine. The mouth is just better for absorption.
Jade:
The liquid should be fine. Just make sure you get your 1000 mg of acai each day, whether you take it all at once or in two 500 mg doses. It should not affect your hair.
Karen:
All I know is if you order the trial products from this site, all you have to pay is a couple dollars for shipping and handling. Sorry that you had a bad experience with Advance Wellness.
By antony on Jan 17, 2009
is it possible to ship this free order to india. or where do i get this product in india.
By Steve on Jan 17, 2009
The only way I know to get acai in India, is to order it from Sambazon. Check out this link for more information: Sambazon Acai.
By Jessica on Jan 24, 2009
Dear Steve,
I don’t feel comfortable with putting my credit card information on the internet. Is there any store I can buy Extreme Acai Berry from, like maybe my local GNC?
By Steve on Jan 25, 2009
Jessica:
You can’t buy Extreme Acai in stores, but you might be able to get a different acai product in a store. Not sure if it will be high quality 100% acai, but you can try. Also, I found one Shaws that actually sells Sambazon acai. Look for it.

I don’t know that answer offhand, but I bet you could find a store somewhere that sells some Sambazon juice. I found one local grocery store, a Shaws, that sells the Sambazon triple antioxidant drink. If not, order some here:

Hey there,
I was about to order Acaiburn, but now I’m worried that if i use it and than stop using it than I will gain weight back. I don’t want to continue using it for a long time. I just need to lose 5-7 pounds thats it. So do you think that Acaiburn is the right product for me? and if so, does it make you gain weight once i stop using it?
Thanks

By Gigi on Feb 3, 2009
I just got my order of Acai Burn today and I haven’t tried it yet. I wondered if there can be any harm to one’s health if he takes Acai BurN??? Are you familiar with it,and just like Angela asked above, if I stop taking it after one month am I going to gain weight back? I need to loose no more than 8-10 pounds and if there’s sth wrong with this “magic pill” I’d be better off sweating more in the gym…Thank you in advance for your response.
By teresa on Feb 3, 2009
Where are the acai berries sold?
By Steve on Feb 3, 2009
Angela and Gigi:
Acai berry will help you lose weight faster if you are already eating healthy and exercising. If you continue to do these things after you are off acai, you will probably not gain any weight back. If you stop using acai and exercising, or decide to eat junk again, you will most likely gain weight.
By Steve on Feb 3, 2009
Zarin and Teresa:
Get your acai berry by clicking on any one of the links in this page, or get it shipped internationally on the international acai shipping page.
By Nickywick on Feb 10, 2009
I just purchased AcaiBurn a couple of weeks ago and have seen a difference in my energy level and it has suppressed my diet. I usually eat everything in site before my monthly cycle, but didn’t while using the pill.
I do have to say that I got the Bromolite as well and haven’t seen too much of a change. I do want to lose weight and am exercising/eating right, so I am remaining hopeful.
I think I will continue to use AcaiBurn and ditch the Bromolite. The $69.95 is cheaper than the herbal wraps and personal trainers I’ve used over the years.
All in all I give the product an A/B+.
Nickywick
By Scott on Feb 11, 2009
I ordered Acai Ultra Burn about a month ago. I’ve lost about 10lbs over the course of a month and I started out at 200lbs. So losing 5% of your entire body weight is no small feat.
This month, I started up on the Wii Fit so we’ll see how much more I lose this time.

By Lisa on Feb 23, 2009
Which acai berry supplement do you recommend -
Acaiburn, Extreme Acai Berry, or AcaiSlim? I have noticed you recommend several of these products.
By chas on Feb 23, 2009
oprah and racheal ray say this makes u lose weight but u say that it wont so im kinda confused about it. I heard taking this with a colon cleanse will help u lose weight is that true or is it just the colon cleanse that makes u lose the weight?
By Steve on Feb 24, 2009
chas:
Both the colon cleanse and the acai berry will HELP you lose weight. There is no such thing as a magic weight loss pill, where you just pop a pill and lose weight. (Actually there is, it’s called DNP. DNP is a chemical that will literally melt fat off your body, but it is illegal to use and will kill you if you take even a pinch too much.)
If you want to lose weight on acai, you still need to eat sensibly. Sorry, but that’s the truth.
By Gopal on Feb 25, 2009
i dont have a credit card but i want to get some of your product.

You could try going to the store and finding some acai, but I think all you will find are garbage juice products. I recommend getting a credit card.

I stopped taking the AcaiBurn supplement a few days ago (after taking it for about 12 days), and since then I’ve been feeling crampy / gassy (?). I called a nurse because I was afraid it might be my appendix, but she told me it was just gas. Is there a period of time I should be waiting for this to go away?

Hi…
Living in the UAE it appears to be practically impossible to buy Acai Supplements/Juices/Pills. I have however found frozen Acai pulp from a Brazilan Company.
Will the pulp work the same as the supplements? If so how much should I eat/drink and would you recommend using it in combination with a colon cleanser?
Many thanks.
By Steve on Mar 5, 2009
d.r:
No, you will not gain any weight simply by stopping acai, as long as you continue to exercise and eat healthy.
krystal:
Follow these instructions on the bottle.
Amanda:
This is probably part of your normal digestive function and you will likely get used to it again within a week or two.
Jennifer:
Acai pulp should be fine. Just try to use 1000 mg of acai each day for maximal health benefits. Using acai with a colon cleanser is recommended by many.
I have also answered these questions and many more, in much more detail, on my Acai Frequently Asked Questions page.
By Steve on Mar 5, 2009
Lisa:
AcaiBurn and Extreme Acai are pretty much the same product as far as I am concerned. Whichever product I am currently promoting on my acai pages is always a good product. I refuse to promote garbage.

One More Question:
Does Acai Raise Your Heart Rate?
By Shae on Mar 10, 2009
Hey guys , iam doing research on the acai berry diet and was wondering if i could get some info. How much is it monthly? Whats the general effects? Is it one of the best diets so far? I need as much info as possible and ASAP therefore my teacher will fail me.
Thanks again
shae
By Steve on Mar 10, 2009
Well shae you are in luck! All you have to do is read the acai articles here at Project Swole and you will know everything you need to know, and then you won’t fail.
By Steve on Mar 10, 2009
d.r: From my experience and from the information I’ve gathered, acai alone does nothing to increase your heart rate. It is only the additional ingredients like green tea or caffeine that raise your heart rate. I’ll add this question to the FAQ.
By Mitzi on Mar 10, 2009
Would taking hydroxycut increase weight loss along with acai? I was wanting to know If Tt was safe to use them both together.
By Nee on Mar 11, 2009
Is the product available in Canada? Seems we have different types of the product on the US market. Which one should a novice go for?
By Rae on Mar 11, 2009
Like Mitzi said I too was wondering if “Acai To Go Brands,Acai All Natural Energy Boosts”
(An Instant energy drink you can poor Into your waterbottle) would Increase the effects of weight loss using acai as well? Or could It reverse the effects? Thank you for your time. =]
By Steve on Mar 11, 2009
Mitzi: if you are using a 100% pure acai product, you should have nothing to worry about when using Hydroxycut. If you are using an acai product that has green tea, caffeine, or any other stimulant, then you might consider being careful about it.
Rae: I don’t know much about that product but the same rule as Hydroxycut probably applies.
By Cabby on Mar 12, 2009
Do you need to take diet supplements with Acai Berry vitamins in order for it to work. I’ve been on Acai Berry pills just for a couple of days, I just did the cleanser and finished it on Sunday. About how long does it take for pills to go into affect. Waiting for your reply. Thanks
By Soyierta on Mar 16, 2009

By don on Mar 19, 2009

By halim on Mar 19, 2009
hey steve what if i wanted to stop the program after my ideal fat loss will it stay that way or will i have to continue the plan my entire life thank you
By Sara on Mar 25, 2009
Can we take it on an empty stomich ???
By Angel on Mar 26, 2009
If we are taking the pills can we eat food?
or just take pills in the morning and night?
By Steve on Mar 26, 2009
Angel:
Please eat food. You should still be eating healthy meals 3-5 times a day when you are taking acai.
The rest of you, please refer to the Acai FAQ for the answers to your questions. If you have a question that is not in the FAQ, then I will be happy to answer it.
By Flora butter on Apr 3, 2009
Which brand of this supplement would you recommended?
I’m on a pill and stopped would it have any negative effects?
By Sarah on Apr 8, 2009
I was just wondering if there was a certain age you had to be to start the acai berry diet? My daughter is interested and she is 15 but is very tall.
By Robert on Apr 13, 2009
That is interesting that these berries are loaded with the omega oils similar to what fish contain. So they must have a descent amount of fat content. Good read though, thanks.
By joce on Apr 13, 2009
i have ben taking the acai berry supplements for a few weeks now.i had ben watching my diet for a while now and i didnt really loose any weight. i started taking the acai berry pills and have droped weight and all i did was watch what i was eating and take them. besides the weight…they give you more energy and boost your mood ide say, but watch out they will give you crazy sex drives!
i would reccomend them
By Steve on Apr 15, 2009
Thanks for the review. I’ve never heard anything negative from people reviewing acai products. We all love them!
By Emily on Apr 17, 2009

By Dee on Apr 20, 2009
Hi all!
I am thinking of taking Acai Berry pills to help me lose weight. However, I am worried that if I stop taking them for any reason then I might put the weight back on…Is this a possibility?? Plus how long has it taken for people to lose some fat and weight with these pills?
By Steve on Apr 20, 2009
As soon as you start taking acai, you will add fire to your body fat burning inferno. That is unless you are not exercise and eating garbage. Basically, if you live the right lifestyle you should see accelerated fat loss immediately. If you don’t do anything else right then the acai won’t work at all.
I address the issue of fat gain when you stop taking acai, in my Acai Berry FAQ.
By Steve on Apr 20, 2009
Most importantly I must say that you should refer questions of this nature to your doctor. That being said, please be aware that 100% pure acai is like 100% pure blueberry. If you would feed your baby blueberries then you should also feel comfortable feeding it acai.
By Marie on Apr 23, 2009
I got a free trial from this website I came across and quite honestly I’m a bit scared to start takin the pills I’m scared that it’s something that’s going to affect me the pills are hard not melt in your mouth ones and there large and in a white bottle with red off of this information can you tell me if these pills are legit acai ?? Thanks a lot
By Steve on Apr 23, 2009
Marie, I honestly have no idea, but if you ordered a free trial of an acai product it probably is what you ordered. Too bad you didn’t come to Project Swole first to get yourself some Acai Burn.
By Lex on Apr 24, 2009
Hi,
I’m actually intending on using Acai for mild weight loss, and after a bit of research, will probably end up going with Sambazon products. It must get terribly tedious answering the same questions over, and over, and over again. Yes, obviously I have been reading all the comments. I was just wondering, actually, if you’ve ever eaten just the fruit? My hubby and I have a newly developed fruit war going on, he being on the side of blueberries, and as soon as I can get my hands on some of the berries, I’d like to have a tried and true recipe for tricking him into eating it. Perhaps as an ice cream topper..or something. In any case, thank you for posting your knowledge, repeatedly. I found it quite informative.
By Steve on Apr 24, 2009
Sambazon is pretty good. You should also check out the Zola acai giveaway that’s going on until mid May. You don’t have to do much to enter and win.
But yeah I get sick of the same questions, which is why there is now an acai berry faq.
By lindita on May 13, 2009
Hi ,Steve
i have one question about acai berry i buy the pills 350mg and 750mg its good to take every day one each pill..for example this 750mg its to much ,do you thing ican use this product because never i use pill for lose weight or samthing ???!! thank you..
By Steve on May 13, 2009
lindita: I’m not exactly sure what you just asked, but I think you asked if 750mg is too much. The answer is no. I recommend taking 1000mg of acai every day if you can.
By lindita on May 14, 2009
Ok Steve you got it you understand me hehe THANK YOU !because idont speak good english ,so for how long i go lose weight IF I TAKE THIS acai berry its good to take for 3 mothns every day..
By adesola on May 16, 2009
i i`m dieing to use the accai berry food diet stuff,but where in Los Angeles, CA,US can i get it?
By Steve on May 19, 2009
Adesola: I would just buy it online. Otherwise I don’t know where in LA you can get it. Try a whole foods store.
By Acai on May 22, 2009
Nice website about the acai berry. I have been taking acai for about a month now and really do feel as though its helping.
Its not like some huge surge of energy or noticable benefit right away, but overtime, you can start to look and feel healthier.
I am only 25 years old .. but since I have been taking 2-4oz a day, I have lost about 12 pounds and only had about 20-25 lbs to lose to begin with.
Great post. Great Product!
By Nicollet on May 23, 2009
Steve,
I’m a skinny 14 year old girl. I don’t really need the acai berry supplement for weight loss, but rather the other benefits. Like I said, 14 years old. If I take this pill am I going to…die or something? Sorry, I’m just trying to be safe, you know?
By Steve on May 27, 2009
Nicollet:
I address this question in the acai berry faq. If you are old enough to eat blueberries, you are old enough to eat acai berries. That being said, make sure you get a 100% acai supplement, juice, or smoothie. Do not get a pill containing 8 other ingredients that you are not familiar with.
By Christian on May 28, 2009
Hey Steve, I bought the “AcaiBerry Power500 melt away tablets” (all natural cleansing solution), I live in Canada & they were shipped to me, I am wondering if these r the good pills or the “not so good”?!? B/C I read above you said you didnt think they shipped to Canada, seing how I live in Canada & they shipped them to me, am I getting good ones or the “fake crap”? Also it doesnt really say how to take them, I’ve read people let it desolve, some have said they swallowed & other said they chewed them. Which is the best way to take these pills? Thanks.
*** Ingredients: Dextrose, Vanilla Flavor, Wild Berry flavor, Citric Acid, Carmin color, Crospovidone NF, Magnesium Stearate & Sucralose.
Are these pills the good ones? Thanks.
By Steve on May 28, 2009
Christian:
I was promoting the Acai Berry Power 500 for a while, and they are perfectly fine, although I do prefer the Acai Nutraburst now that I’ve found it. You should just let them dissolve in your mouth. The nutrients are absorbed better that way.
By Christian on May 29, 2009
Hey Steve, thanks alot for your help, greatly appreciate it. Can u tell me the diff between Power500 & the Nutaburst you are taking? is there that much of a diff between the 2? Y do u prefer the Nutaburst over the Power500? Should I try & locate the Nutraburst? Thanks.
Christian

Steve,
How much weight should I expect to lose within 3 months?
By Megan on Jun 1, 2009
What will the Acai berry do for breast size? Will it also burn fat from that area as well? I’ve just ordered a 30 day supply and am looking forward to trying it. My main issue is my chest and stomach so im super anxious to see some results.
By Chelsea on Jun 3, 2009
I really wanna try these. I will when I get the money. How fast do you lose weight? or does it depend on the person’s diet and activity?
