By now you must know what Acai berry is and the many wonders it can benefit your health and weight loss efforts given the thousands of article sources found all over the Web. Found and grown mostly in Brazil, it’s been used by Brazilians for years to increase their energy, improve their metabolism, thereby promoting weight loss at greater extents. It’s even discovered to destroy leukemia cells. So far it worked for most people by getting the real Acai, though thousands have been scammed. Here are a few quick tips to avoid being part of the “GOT SCAMMED” statistics:

1. Avoid those offering “FREE TRIALS”. Haven’t heard of the Free Trial Scam? If they only offer to pay for shipping – that is absolutely untrue since it will just lure you to provide your credit card info and bill you every month for a fake product. Thousands of complaints pertaining to this scam have been reported to the BBB and the US Federal Trade Commission – and both institutions have already issued several warnings to veer away from these scams.

2. Check the labeling. Fake products do not elaborate as much. Real Acai berry products include ORAC values, contents of Omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids, even the processing done on the Acai berry product. If these values are all detailed on the product label, you can then be assured that it is a genuine Acai berry supplement with all the health benefits.

3. Choose only the freeze dried products. This means that the weight loss and other health benefits of the super fruit are preserved better. A lot of companies do spray or drum drying because it is faster and cheaper to make the supplement, but all the nutrients are lost in the process because high heat destroys all these. Fiber is also preserved in the freeze drying method. When consumed with water, the original taste and aroma of the pulp is restored in freeze dried acai berry products.
