Has anyone tried the Acaiberry Power 500 tablets?

Sunday, October 17th, 2010

Question by Linda P: Has anyone tried the Acaiberry Power 500 tablets?
After much research, I finally ordered the 14 day free trial of Acaiberry 500. What I received was 14 tablets, with instruction to take one or two before each meal. So either I don’t really have a 14 day trial or the instructions are wrong. Also, the bottle label reads “Extreme AcaiBerry” Not Acaiberry Power 500 as shown in the ad. Can anyone tell me if these 2 products are the same and how many tablets I should be taking per day? I didn’t receive any packing slip or e-mail with instructions on who to call with questions. Can’t find any contacts on the web.

Also, has anyone who has used these tablets tell me something about the weight loss properties?

thanks

Linda
I’d like to hear from people who have actually used this product. I know about the terms of this contract and about healthy eating and exercise to lose weight. I just need an answer from someone who has experienced this product, either for it’s health properties or weight loss claims, before my trial is over.

Answer by Rhianna
These pills are of course useless. There is only ONE way to lose weight, a reduced calorie healthy diet and vigorous daily exercise.

Power Supplements, LLC Unearths Disturbing Trends in Acai Products and Supplements

Friday, October 1st, 2010


New York, NY (PRWEB) April 3, 2008

Power Supplements has completed a review of the Acai berry products on the market and discovered a number of disturbing trends. Among the most disturbing issues were the numerous “Pure Acai” products that were found to actually contain crushed seeds, malodextrin and other ingredients.

The Acai berry has gained international recognition as one of the highest antioxidant fruits in the world. Dr. Perricone named the Acai berry as the #1 Superfood on the Oprah Winfrey show. Acai has been featured on the Today Shows CBS Early Show, Wall Street Jounal and the New York Times. In addition to the incredible antioxidant levels in the Acai berry, the Acai berry is rich in anthocyanins, fiber, healthy omega fats, amino acids, protein, plant sterols, vitamins and minerals.

Over the last three months, Power Supplements has looked at the majority of Acai products on the market. This study of Acai products has uncovered the top five problems in the Acai industry:

1. Acai seeds being used in Acai juices and supplements

2. “Fairy Dusting” with Acai for marketing purposes

3. Proprietary Acai formulas make it impossible to know how much Acai is in a product.

4. Malodextrin has been found in spray dried Acai products

5. Use of fillers and flowing agents in “Pure Acai” products

Dan Nessel, Head of Research at Power Supplements finds these issues frustrating and calls for the industry to be more responsible. “The Acai berry is 90% seed – no one, and I mean no one, in the Amazon eats the Acai seed. There are creative things to do with the seed, like making necklaces or using the seed as a form of renewal energy. The one thing you don’t do with the seed is eat it. So, when we found four different Acai products using the Acai seed we were very alarmed.” states Nessel.

Acai has received so much buzz in the media that companies are scrambling to include Acai in their product lines. The Power Supplements study finds that numerous companies are guilt of adding just a trace amount of Acai to their products so they can be marketed as Acai products – a procedure known as “Fairy Dusting” in the industry. While the label might say Acai, there is not enough Acai present in the formula to have any real health benefits.

The final three issues – proprietary formulas, the use of Malodextrin and the addition of fillers and flowing agents have been long standing problems in the Acai industry. “In the end, the consumer wants to be able to look at various Acai products and compare them fairly. How is this possible when the majority of Acai products hide behind proprietary formulas and don’t state the amount of Acai in their product? How is a consumer to know that an Acai supplement might be filled with Malodextrin when the FDA does not require it be listed on the label? Finally, how does the consumer know how much magnesium stearate, rice and other fillers and flowing agents are in the Acai product they are taking?” states Nessel.

The Power Supplements study concludes that the best way to shop for Acai products is to study the label and ask the manufacturer questions. Acai supplements that are freeze dried, organic, made only from skin and pulp (no Acai seeds), contain no other ingredients and clearly state the amount of Acai per serving are you best bet. “Customers should not be afraid to pick up the phone and call the manufacturer and asks questions,” said Dan Nessel. “If a company does not want to tell you exactly what is in their Acai product – that is a good sign to move on to another company that is more open and honest.” states Nessel.

Secrets Of Acai Berry Antioxidant Power Revealed

Secrets Of Acai Berry Antioxidant Power Revealed

The acai berry has gained widespread popularity as a powerful antioxidant with an ORAC number much higher than other fruits and vegetables, also considered valuable antioxidants.
So what gives this dark blue, black Brazilian berry such amazing powers of slowing the aging process, acting against a host of chronic diseases like inflammation, helping reduce the risks of cancer and supporting the healing process after injury?
Firstly, what is an antioxidant?
A normal part of body metabolism involves the death of old and damaged cells and their replacement by new cells.  When these processes take place the body forms Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) which are free radicals containing oxygen, including a superoxide, a hydroxyl radical (containing an oxygen and hydrogen atom) and hydrogen peroxide.
These molecules are very unstable because they have lost an electron, and this is not the normal state for atoms in nature.  All atoms try to find a stable state, which means the electrons – which   orbit the core nucleus like planets – try either to lose or gain an electron to get this balance back.
When it achieves this, an unstable molecule becomes stable once more, after a series of chain reactions started by the free radicals during normal body activity. This is where the antioxidants, and specifically the acai berry given its very high ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) number, play their key role.
As a polyphenol the acai berry has a very high capacity to act as an antioxidant to mop up those free radicals which can be so destructive to cells in our bodies. As an anthocyanin the acai berry belongs to the sub-group of over 4,000 flavonoids identified in nature and considered to be a very important for health and wellness.
But what is it about acai berries that make them such a strong antioxidant, with anecdotal evidence of amazing recoveries from conditions like strokes, rheumatoid arthritis and help reduce the risk of cancer and atherosclerosis?
All the berries which record high ORAC values, such as strawberries, raspberries, bilberries, cranberries and blueberries and more,  have the polyphenol structure containing a key area which acts as a mop to soak up these damaging free radicals.
The water soluble anthocyanins pelargonidin, peonidin, cyanidin, delphinidin and malvidin occur in all or some of the common berries which we eat for their health enhancing benefits.
For example, raspberries and cranberries are rich in pelargonidin, while cherries are rich in peonidin and cyanidin.
Only blueberries and bilberries seem to have all the above anthocyanins, while acai berries have these and more.
These berries get their intense colour from cyanidin, a special version of the anthocyanin, after it is formed from the colourless leucocyanidin during a key process called the Kreb’s cycle.
The double bond is the key
Many commentators highlight the benefits of mono- or polyunsaturated fats when it comes to a healthy diet, and this is linked to the greater stability of the structure of these fats compared to saturated fats, as in butter.
They are ideal for absorbing the highly reactive free radicals produced as part of our normal body functions, because they possess what are called double bonds, which is why they are called unsaturated.
The polyphenolic anthocyanins in the acai berry also have these double bonds which are available to help soak up the dangerous free radicals which hunt for the nearest electron to satisfy their need for stability.
In clinical terms, the free radicals cause long term damage to our body tissues and organs, with aging being one of the more common symptoms.
So when you consider that around 50 per cent of the acai berry consists of fat, of which three quarters is mono- and polyunsaturated essential fatty acids in the form of Omega 3, 6 and 9 oils, and add this to the potent effect of the anthocyanins, it helps to explain why this berry is such a powerful  antioxidant.
With so many double bonds from the anthocyanins and the omega fatty acids in the fruit, the acai berry is an antioxidant reservoir ready and available to protect your body from a continual attack from these reactive species.

Power Supplements, LLC launches the Perfect Acai Consumer Bill of Rights

Sunday, September 19th, 2010


Perfect Acai Consumer Bill of Rights


New York, NY (Vocus) January 13, 2009 –-

Power Supplements today launched its Perfect Acai Consumer Bill of Rights. Consumers today are bombarded with various Acai scams that have correctly drawn the attention of the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and numerous consumer complain organizations. The Perfect Acai Consumer Bill of Rights is a guarantee that when you purchase the Perfect Acai brand your consumer rights will be protected.

The Acai berry has gained international recognition as one of the highest antioxidant fruits in the world. Dr. Perricone named the Acai berry as the #1 Superfood on the Oprah Winfrey show. Acai has been featured on the Today Shows CBS Early Show, Wall Street Jounal and the New York Times. In addition to the incredible antioxidant levels in the Acai berry, the Acai berry is rich in anthocyanins, fiber, healthy omega fats, amino acids, protein, plant sterols, vitamins and minerals.

While the Acai berry is clearly a nutritious food, there are numerous companies that are trying to take advantage of consumers. The Internet is overflowing with “free trial Acai offers” and sites that feature pictures of Oprah and incredible testimonials of weight loss. The problem is that the “free trial offers” are not free – the fine print says you will be billed up to a month. In addition, Oprah has never endorsed any of these Acai weight loss products. On January 5, 2009 the Better Business Bureau (BBB) issued a warning to consumers about Acai companies that are using misleading sales and marketing practices.

To make sure that consumers are not mislead and have their rights protected when purchasing Acai, PowerSupplements.com has launched their Perfect Acai Consumer Bill of Rights. “We created our Acai Consumer Bill of Rights because we wanted consumers to know that there are still reputable companies selling Acai,” states Dan Nessel, Head of Research at PowerSupplements.com. “We absolutely applaud the Better Business Bureau (BBB), they are correct in warning people about the numerous Acai scams that are out there,” Nessel states. “We created our Perfect Acai Consumer Bill of Rights so consumers would know that there are still high quality Acai berry supplements on the market that do not partake in misleading sales or marketing practices.”

The Perfect Acai Consumer Bill of Rights is available online at PowerSupplements.com. Among the rights guaranteed are that a consumer will never be autobilled for any products and there are no membership programs that need to be canceled. Nessel is hopeful that other Acai companies will follow their lead and put in writing exactly how the consumer will be treated.

“The Acai berry is an incredible fruit, that is really helping people here and in the Amazon Rainforest,” states Nessel. “It would be a real shame if the action of a few dishonest companies tarnished the true benefits of the Acai berry. We welcome other companies in joining our program to guarantee the rights of anyone who wants to try the Acai berry.”

Acai Berry Power 500: Pros and Cons

Acai Berry Power 500: Pros and Cons

Acai Berry Power 500 is being touted as the best diet when it comes to losing weight and regaining your energy; but with all the hype that we have seen with fad diets and slimming supplements, we have heard this line being pitched over and over. So is Acai Berry Power 500 anymore different from all those that have come and gone, or is it just another thing to take space in our cupboards but doesn’t really do a thing for our figure? Here are the pros and cons.

The pros of taking Acai Berry Power 500

Acai berry, and we mean the organic acai, has been used by the local populace of the South American region for centuries: as source for food and as a source for dietary supplements. Long before actual scientific studies were conducted on the tiny dark-purplish berries, people who consume organic acai on a regular basis claim that it can enhance health by increasing the immune system, by providing fuel source for the body, and at the same time, helps with the removal of bodily waste.

When studies were finally conducted, most of these claims were apparently true on one or more level. In regards to the immune system, it was discovered that: most acai berries do contain high levels of phenols and ant-mutagenic compounds, necessary to ward off diseases. In regards to providing fuel source, acai berries have one of the high concentrations of anti-oxidants compared to the other berries. It also contains its share of free radicals and minerals necessary to promote muscle build-up and skin elasticity. Lastly, when processed correctly, acai taken in forms of capsules or juice can provide the drinker higher levels of fiber and iron. These are two elements that can help with bowel movement, and thereby remove most toxins in the body.

In some cases, there are also claims that when taken as dietary supplements (like Acai Berry Power 500,) acai can help enhance the human libido. However, this claim is still somewhat sketchy. Most experts agree that any weakened human system, from respiration to digestion, may contribute to the weakening of the sex drive. Acai can help boost immune system and restore a person to a healthier status. And in so doing, helps enliven the libido.

The cons of taking Acai Berry Power 500

Like all dietary supplement, this is only supposed to aid the drinker to better health. It is neither a cure for any disease, nor answer to any medical condition. Taking acai capsules should not be an alternative to conventional medicine; and it should not be an excuse not to visit the doctor when you need medical aid.

Like conventional medicine as well, some people do not respond or respond well to acai. In some cases where a person is prone to allergies from berry-products, more adverse reactions may set in, causing more damage than healthful benefits. Depending also on individual reactions, some people may experience different results after the ingestion of the capsules or juice.

Furthermore, since there seems to be a lot of profits to be made in the promotion of acai-based products, more and more unscrupulous individuals or business entities are trying the cash in. Some of the supposed products being offered very cheaply over the World Wide Web sometimes contain very little or no acai extracts at all.
