When I first started taking these about a month ago, I noticed that I had quite a bit more energy for the first couple of weeks. It seemed that I felt more awake in the morning shortly after taking them. Which usually I have a hard time waking up. Now that I think about it I guess Ive been sleeping more soundly also. I have been taking them along with a colon cleanse and I havent had one lb. of weight loss. But I have noticed that my skin is less dry. The extra energy has diminished but I still think that it gives me a feeling of wellness. I will continue to take it and see what happens. I was really hoping to lose a little bit of weight but I guess we cant have everything.

Do NOT buy this product if you think its going to make you lose weight... There is simply no medical proof it works. And to get the antioxidant properties present in the Acai berries you are much better off eating fresh blueberries or strawberries.

I gave it a two star because it has what it says, but bottom line is its not useful and will never be useful.

And is it just me, or do the 5 star reviews seem to have been created by the producers of these pills? They sound so fake.

After reading the good reviews on this product I decided I'd give it a try. I've been taking these for a week today (3x a day instead of twice). I do not have increased energy or a curbed appetite & no weight loss (maybe too soon for that). I have even changed my diet & started exercising again but still...nothing. The only thing I have noticed is that it makes my mouth dry after a while & that I fall asleep faster. Can't say if it would make me sleep better b/c I have a newborn so I'm up all the time. Hopefully with more time I'll see more benefits...

Not feeling the "love" on this one. Maybe I haven't taken it long enough. Since purchasing this I read that one should make sure that it says "freeze dried" on the lable. This one does not. Before I give up totally on the concept of Acai I will try the one on Amazon that says Freeze Dried at the greater expense. This definitely didn't curb my appetite.

I dont know how its possible that people are losing weight on this. I have not, in fact, ive gained. Its all over the net to use this.. but the real stuff that Brad Pitt uses or whatever.. the Acai Burn or something.. its about 80.00 a month.. but there are other ingredients to it besides this berry that claims to be it. I gave a 2 because the company that sells this.. they get a 5 since I got it so fast and make good products, but this one.. im not feeling it.

I have been taking these for about 3 weeks now, and can't tell any difference. Since I paid for them, I will continue until they are finished, but I wouldn't recommend this particular Acai product.
There may be others out there that are better.

First, let me say I bought this item to use as an aid in cleansing my body, not as a diet aid! I have been taking for over 2 1/2 weeks and have not noticed any difference with gas/bloating. I did not experience extra bowel movements as other people have reported, nor did I get ANY aftertaste whether I took with food or not. I don't know if this product takes a while to work, but I do not think I am going to purchase again - maybe I'll go to a health food store!

I bought these capsules in November and have been taking them as directed for the past 7 weeks. In that time I have lost 14 lbs and have noticed problems I was having are gone. Since taking the berry capsules, I'm not retaining water like I used to, the heartburn problems are not occurring anymore and I am noticing that I sleep a lot better at night and waking up refreshed and not tired. My main intent for purchasing the capsules was to help me lose the weight that I've carried on me for the past 15 years and it has certainly been a noticeable help to me without 'dieting' or changing my eating habits.

So far I have experienced no side effects from these capsules and they have exceeded my expectations.


*Update*

As of today 1/27/09 - I have lost 21 lbs and 13 inches since 11/12/08. I am quite pleased with the results from taking these acai berry capsules and looking forward to buying a new spring/summer wardrobe because I can no longer fit into my current wardrobe, it's all too big!!

I give this to my husband for his overall health, it seems to give him more energy and stamina. I believe this to be good for weight problems as well.

curbs appetite but doesnt make a drastic weight loss as some of the claims say it will. I have more energy during the day and sleep better at night.
