Acai Berry??

[Lunachick1]

i did a search on here about them and did not find much about it. As i am sure most of you have seen the advertisements for it i have recently gotten a bottle of the acai berry pills. I havent taken any yet because I have no idea if it might screw me up OR even how many carbs would be in a pill. if any?

I saw a bottle of this in liquid form at my chiropractor's office. They wanted $40 a bottle for it. Ouch! It did have some carbs in it, but I can't recall how much. The pill form may be different than the liquid form though in terms of carbs.

I also haven't read anything in the nutrition journals about acai berries yet, so I can't give you any insight to them. Which brand of acai did you buy? Does their website have any nutritional info there or perhaps a toll-free number to call?

Keep us informed on what you find out and if you decide to take them, how it affects you...hopefully in a positive way!

Good luck!

I'm taking them (not the ones you buy from the scam website). AND so far as i've researched them, they're purely an antioxidant. So IMO they dont seem like they could do harm. I haven't found anything on carb counts. But they don't seem to be impeding my weight loss. So it's pretty much the same as eating a couple blueberries.

What brand are you using?

[ikilledrafe]

natrol, from walgreens relatively cheap. on the back it says no yeast, milk, egg, etc. glutens, or added sugar. THOUGH it does say cornstarch. but i cant immagine much. in anycase, im only taking 1 a day instead of two as i take multivitamins, c and flaxseed oil. Doesnt seemed to have stopped my weight loss so far.
