Anyone heard of it? My sister is bugging me about it!!! I told her that I'd rather get my vitamins and cals from food. Then she's like you don't really need to eat with this! I'm like I WANT TO EAT! Mind you this is the sister that's always saying crap about me trying to do this the healthy way but eating good and exercising. I was just wondering if anyone has heard about this, something???? I hadn't heard about it until she decided to sell it......I am NOT buying it!

    You're correct...it's a big waste 'o money.

    It's just Acai Berry Juice - it's certainly not a replacement for eating! And while Acai Berry's are probably very good for you, and the juice is probably okay too (Minus the fiber) it's not a magic pill.

    Not worth it.

    It also advertises the business aspect of it... MLM stuff... I dunno that makes me wary having been involved in one once. Ugh :(

    Yeah, Mary Kay and Avon and some other product MLMS (Pamp Chef, Tastefully Simple) aren't too bad, but mona-vie and miracle juice ones just sorta rub me the wrong way.

    Oh Amway...I dont' even want to get started on how much I loathe Amway.

    Add it to the pile of crap that's out there. Probably has some redeeming features, but once again, yet another product to try to bilk the consumer into thinking they can buy something that will "fix" their body.

    Even if the stuff has some redeeming health qualities, it's still ridiculously expensive! A friend dragged me to a thing where the girl was selling it, and I did actually like the taste of it, so I considered giving it a shot. (Not as a 'magic pill', but just as an addition to my healthier efforts.) But then I saw the price tag! :noway: Forget it! That stuff is something like $40/bottle! I don't even pay that much for wine! Then they try to suck you into being a 'distributor' so you can get a discount, etc. No thanks...sounds like a scam to me. I'll stick to eating healthier, exercising more, and taking a good old fashioned multi-vitamin.
