3 Biggest Acai Berry Myths Exposed

The Acai Berry became popular because of the feature on The Oprah Winfrey show, and other shows followed. Her guest doctor, Dr. Oz, promoted the healthy nature of Acai, a fruit from the Acai palm tree in the Amazon forest. Oprah does not endorse an Acai product, but internet companies use her photo to promote their products. With such popularity, the Acai Berry became instantly profitable and is sold on the internet with dozens of different names. Many say it is the magic bullet for nearly many ailments from hair loss to curing cancer. Three of the most common stories are debunked as simply myths in this article.

Myth Number 1: The Acai Berry helps people lose weight. Acai is a fruit which is high in anti-oxidants that bind with free radicals. Free radicals do damage to cells in our bodies, so anti-oxidants are healthy. Also, Acai is rich in fatty acids and contains fiber, but neither causes your body to burn fat. Acai is promoted as a fat burning food, but how it this really works is explained nowhere.

The second myth is that the Acai Berry promotes muscle growth. Claims of guys getting ripped because of Acai are common. There are even stories of the Spartans in the movie 300 taking Acai to get their chiseled physiques. But one of the top fitness trainers in the world explains ‘all those Acai sites do is steal photos from other sites and put them on those blogs. Those sites are 100% lies. There’s not a word of truth on any of those sites’. The fact is the 300 were trained by Mark Twight and Acai was not part of the regimen. While Acai is nutritious, it contains nothing to increase muscle growth or improve definition.

Myth Number 3: Get free samples of Acai. Beware of the free trials, not free samples, of Acai offered on tens of thousands of internet sites. Read the small print since many feel this is a scam. The buyer pays for shipping and handling, about seven dollars, but gives the seller the credit card number. The small print says the free trial period is usually fourteen days and the credit card will be charged the full price of the product if not returned within this time. The full cost is usually forty dollars or more. Also, the credit card will be charged monthly afterwards and the product will be shipped automatically until cancelled.

A variety of myths about Acai are common online. This article exposed just three of the most common myths. Acai sites may have good sales pitches, but you can now read them with a more critical eye to avoid getting ripped off.

Acai Colon Cleanse Explained

Jeff Randall — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 19:15:51 +0000

The Acai berry colon cleanse was made popular by Dr. Oz, guest on the Oprah Winfrey show. There may not be another trend setter in American culture today with greater influence than Oprah. Dr. Oz has a show of his own in addition to his contribution to the Oprah Winfrey show. After Dr. Oz was on the Oprah show, the word was out and everyone was talking about the Acai berry colon cleanse.

Colon cleansing became popular for a number of reasons. First, colon cancer is second only to lung cancer for killing men, and third for women behind lung and breast cancer. Ensuring our colon is not filled with pounds of undigested meat and food could help prevent colon cancer. Second, our modern diet is filled with artificial ingredients and toxins, such as pesticides, that slow our digestive system allowing food to be in our bodies for longer periods of time. The extra time allows the toxins to be absorbed into our bodies, and the colon is in direct contact with the toxins. Colon cleansing can ensure the food, along with the toxins, parasites and artificial ingredients, move through our bodies quickly.

Colon cleansing has also helped eliminate an accumulation in the colon referred to as ‘mucoidal plaque’. This plaque is a brown paste and clings to the colon walls. It may be caused by the toxicity of our modern diet, but it can be difficult to detect. Eliminating the plaque increases the efficiency of the digestive system and often results in significant weight loss.

The popularity of the Acai berry took off with Dr. Oz praising the many benefits it offers. But Dr. Oz added an interesting twist of combining Acai berries with colon cleansing, calling this combination an Acai berry colon cleanse. Acai was first known as a powerful antioxidant, but it also is effective in eliminating toxins and waste. Acai is high in fiber and dense in vitamins and minerals. The benefit of the combination is that the colon cleanse releases the mucoidal plaque from the colon wall and allows the undigested food and build up to pass through your system. Then Acai nourishes your body with essential nutrients. The combination is powerful with dramatic improvements felt in just days. Energy increases, pounds melt away and undiagnosed ailments mysteriously disappear.

With so much attention in the media, an Acai berry colon cleanse can seem like a media created fad. But because so many people are experiencing life transforming results, it continues to gain popularity. With the endorsement of doctors Oz and Perricone, more and more people are discovering the powerful combination of an Acai berry colon cleanse.
