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.
Myth Number 1: The Acai Berry helps weight loss. Acai is rich in anti-oxidants that bind with free radicals. Free radicals can damage cells in your body, so anti-oxidants are helpful. Acai also is rich in fatty acids and is high in fiber, both are very healthy but do not help your body burn fat. Acai is sold as a fat burning super food, but how it supposedly works is not explained.
The second myth is that the Acai Berry promotes muscle growth. Claims of guys getting ripped because of Acai are common. There are even stories of the Spartans in the movie 300 taking Acai to get their chiseled physiques. But one of the top fitness trainers in the world explains ‘all those Acai sites do is steal photos from other sites and put them on those blogs. Those sites are 100% lies. There’s not a word of truth on any of those sites’. The fact is the 300 were trained by Mark Twight and Acai was not part of the regimen. While Acai is nutritious, it contains nothing to increase muscle growth or improve definition.
Myth Number 3: Try Acai for free. Beware of free trial offers because they are not free samples. Many feel this is misleading and a scam. The buyer provides a credit card to pay for shipping and handling, about seven dollars. The small print states the free trial offer expires usually in fourteen days and the credit card will be billed if not returned at the end of the free trial. The amount billed is usually forty dollars or more. The credit card is then billed every month and the product is shipped automatically until the order is cancelled.
Acai myths grow daily online and this article exposed three of the most common myths. Beware as many Acai websites can be very convincing. However, you are now prepared to view those sales pitches and their claims with a more skeptical eye.
