JONH ANDERSON ANSWERS: Acai Berry Supplement vs Isagenix
One of my Isagenix cleansers asked me this question.
“I keep seeing infomercials/testimonials
on the internet about the wonders of Acai Berry Supplement and Colon Cleanser Supplement which help with weight reduction. Cited are Dr. Oz on Oprah and Rachel Ray. Is our cleanser and the rest of our program comparable? If so, how?”
Thanks,
C
FROM THE WIKIPEDIA;
As a dietary supplement
Recently, the açaí “berry” has been touted and marketed as a highly beneficial dietary supplement. Companies sell açaí berry products in the form of tablets, juice, smoothies, instant drink powders, and whole fruit.
Marketers of these products make claims that açaí provides increased energy levels, improved sexual performance, improved digestion, detoxification, high fiber content, high antioxidant content, improved skin appearance, improved heart health, improved sleep, and reduction of cholesterol levels. More dubious claims include reversal of diabetes and other chronic illnesses, as well as expanding size of the penis and increasing men’s sexual virility and sexual attractiveness to women. Açaí is most commonly marketed as a weight loss product.
As of March 2009, there are no controlled studies backing up any of these claims. According to ABC News correspondent Susan Donaldson, these products have not been evaluated (in the United States) by the FDA, and their efficacy is questionable. In late 2008, lawyers for The Oprah Winfrey Show began investigating alleged statements from supplement manufacturers who suggested that frequent Oprah guest Dr. Mehmet Oz had recommended their product or açai in general for weight loss.
John;
I do like Acai berry but . . .
There can not be a comparison of Isagenix and “The silver Bullet”. One ingredient can not replace over 200 ingredients contained in the Isagenix system.
“The silver Bullet” cure all, do all does not exist.
If so, God would have only created one tree.
We are given thousands of natural plant, minerals, and nutrients for our health and having a system to depend on is the best way to insure better health. Isagenix will continue to improve and enhance it’s systems for your health.
Additional thoughts;
If you use one ingredient, where will you get the other building like protein, vitamins, minerals, and other important and vital nutrients? Have you ever seen the old ways of “Dieting”? Sagging? Loss of Muscle? Loss of skin elasticity? Flabby underarms?
Thank you for the question, this is a good example of single ingredients.
