Acai Diet

Its been the new craze in the diet world, and with that there has been many new products popping up out of no where claiming to be the best source of Acai berry. Ever since Oprah had a segment devoted to the top healthiest foods in the world, Acai the top on that list, everyone has been wanting to get their hands on the newest beauty product. What you should probably know about Acai berry is why its so great for you.

“Açaí is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Although açaí may not be available in your local supermarket, you can find it in several health food and gourmet stores (often in juice form). A new product featuring the unsweetened pulp is now also available, and I highly recommend that you choose this form of açaí.A remarkable concentration of antioxidants that help combat premature aging, with 10 times more antioxidants than red grapes and 10 to 30 times the anthocyanins of red wine. A synergy of monounsaturated (healthy) fats, dietary fiber and phytosterols to help promote cardiovascular and digestive health. An almost perfect essential amino acid complex in conjunction with valuable trace minerals, vital to proper muscle contraction and regeneration. The fatty acid content in açaí resembles that of olive oil, and is rich in monounsaturated oleic acid. Oleic acid is important for a number of reasons. It helps omega-3 fish oils penetrate the cell membrane; together they help make cell membranes more supple. By keeping the cell membrane supple, all hormones, neurotransmitter and insulin receptors function more efficiently. This is particularly important because high insulin levels create an inflammatory state, and we know, inflammation causes aging.“- Dr. Perricone

You may be thinking you defiantly want Acai, and so did a million other viewers when Dr. Perricone appeared on Oprah. Acai is a wonderful food for you but it’s not the only thing that can help aging. Olive oil, omega 3′s are good for that too as well as many other fruits, just because Acai is the highest concentration of antioxidants you can still get the exact same benefits from other sources like, strawberries, oranges, blueberries, and the list continues.

Acai berry has only been quoted to be a strong antioxidant, which helps with aging skin, cardiovasicular health and digestive track. While we this Acai is a great ingredient in a supplement, we recommend taking a more comprehensive supplement. Somthing that will give you 5 – 10 good active ingredients. We also caution people about many of the Acai products on the market today as most of them offer a free trial but then sign you up for an autoship program. They often make it difficult to cancel and even more difficult to get your money back. We have readers that have lost $100 pretty quickly, so stick with a product that offers a money back guarantee rather than a free trial.

Xenadrine
Most likely you have seen or heard of Xenadrine, it was formally a host of Ephedrine until it became illegal. Xenadrine revamped it’s ingredient list with like stimulants that would mimic the effects that it once had. From day one Xenadrine will send your body into shock and set your metabolism into overdrive. It’s high stimulated powered energy has caused good and bad press, and the common experience from consumers are quite mixed. The reason for this is in its formula, while some people are immune to the side effects of caffeine, some just can’t handle the dosage of body jittering stimulants. Xenadrine advises the first time user to start off with one pill a day for the first three days, and than double the dosage from there. Since reviews are so mixed it isn’t certain what to expect with results, but Xenadrine officially claims in a double blind study subjects lost up to 11 lbs. in 45 days.
Though Xenadrine is said to be powerful it shouldn’t be thought as a thorough proof plan for weight loss. It still may take some work on your part, and cutting back on some of your favorite foods. In some people’s experience they reported that Xenadrine caused decreased appetite, which is great for starters but a huge part of keeping metabolism running at its best is by feeding it the right foods. If you do try Xenadrine have a mental not on how you feel and monitor the effects from the drug, at any time if you feel dehydrated, extremely thirsty or have a dry mouth take precaution this could lead to seizures and may be fetal.

Xenadrine Ingredients:

Yerba mate stem and leaf- supplier of energy similiar to green tea; yerba mate is not as strong as other sources of caffeine so it is good for those that are sensitive to caffeine
Guarana seeds-a chemical substance with the same characteristics as caffeine.

Damiana leaf-Damiana is thought to help with hormone balancing due to its testosterone-like effects.

Other Ingredients: Thiamin; Riboflavin; vitamin b6; folic acid; vitamin B12; Pantothenic acid; calcium

DecaSlim

In his overall experience he saw his body make drastic changes, and it wasn’t just weight loss, his acne and immune system started to improve in just a month. The downfall to his new life style was that salmon and raw nuts were becoming quite sickening after four weeks. This began his search for creating a supplement using only the best ingredients and extracts that would be almost exact to his superfood diet.

In his quest he found patented ingredients from Nutraceautical companies that provided the top highest concentrates of the superfoods. He created a proprietary blend paired with Green Tea and CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) to optimize fat burning.
