Top 3 Acai Myths Debunked
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.
First, the Acai Berry promotes weight loss. While Acai is packed with anti-oxidants, fatty acids and is high in fiber, how this contributes to burning fat is never explained. Anti-oxidants bond with free radicals that damage cells in your body. Anti-oxidants and fatty acids contribute to good health, but do not turn your body into a fat burning machine.
Myth Number 2: The Acai Berry helps increase. ‘Guys Get Ripped Using Acai’ is a common claim on some websites. The actors in the movie 300, about the Spartans, are supposed to have taken Acai to get their amazing muscles. One of the worlds top trainers notes ‘those Acai sites steal photos from other peoples sites and put them on their blogs. Those sites are 100% lies. There’s not a word of truth on any of those sites’. Mark Twight was the trainer for the actors in 300, and Acai was not part of the program. In fact, Acai does not promote muscle growth or 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.
