Just curious about others experience with taking Acai Berry supplement. I am not really referring to the hype about Acai Berry and weight loss that you hear everywhere. Or the ads you see online. I am referring to the actual supplement in the vitamin section of a drugstore.
I have heard from some that it gives them more energy, they sleep better at night, feel less bloated, lost weight quickly and helps with digestion.

Thanks everyone!

    I take it daily but not for the supposed weight lose powers; I take it becasue it is a powerful antioxidant. Been taking it daily for about a year and no weight dissappeared until I got off my fat butt, changed my eating habits and started to workout.

    I took them for about 2 months and saw no difference. Perhaps they did some good on the inside but by all outward appearances -nothing.

    Dark berries such as the acai, blueberry, blackberry, etyc are very high in antioxidents. much higher than many other sources. There are also some other good nutritional and health benefits from these types of foods. I don't think it will make you "feel" any different though.
    Look at my blog. On my food plan there are some good articles from WebMD
