You can buy Acai Berry pills and a health food store.  When taken for 4-6 weeks, it does appear to give more energy, having a calming effect, and helps to lower cholesterol.

I was one you tried it.

A board member at my school who is a retired scientist for SC Johnson in Racine told me about his studies.

He has been all over the world collecting data and concentrated alot of the studying in California.

The bottle is $75 - you take a shot of it every morning. It lasts about 30days.

I did it for about a week didn't see much improvement - but what's a week!

I gave up - but he doesn't know! I tossed out the portfolios on it. I would share the information if I kept the stuff.

After reading about it for 15 minutes, it sounds like it would cure all of my complaints.

LOL!!
Seriously.

It sounds like Goji, and a couple of others, only better. Better why? I don't know. Because it's new?

Honestly, if I had money to burn, I might try it, or Goji. They both sound healthy.

There seems to be good acai products, and bad ones, due to varying strength, or potency. It's a little hard to get a handle on, because everyone who is talking about it is selling it. So they have the good stuff.

My wife liked the Goji juice. But it tasted terrible and it cost a fortune so she sort of lost interest.

Maybe you're thinking of Goji juice? (not sure of the spelling)

My wife and her friends went crazy for that stuff for about three months and then...they all stopped drinking it.

I just typed acai into google, and the "autocomplete" function gave me choices of acai berry, acai berry treatments, and acai berry scams. Being who I am, I hit the "scam" option, and came up with 173.000 hits.

I don't know what the berries are, but...

Is that the juice that sells for $40.00 a bottle and is supposed to boost your energy?
