Doctor's Natural Açaí Berries

Added 11.02.2010


The açaí berry is a very perishable fruit and cannot be shipped long distances without compromising its nutrient content and its effects. For this reason Doctor's Natural açaí supplement is grown and harvested in its native Brazilian forests and immediately freeze dried to secure maximum preservation of its ingredients. Our product is unfiltered, free of preservatives and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Doctor's Natural açaí is a very high quality, 2,000 mg 4:1 extract product, which means we use 4 pounds of açaí to create 1 pound of product, making it very concentrated.

Does açaí have any side effects?

Açaí is a fruit, just like any other. Well, not like any other because it is a lot healthier and more nutritious than many other fruits! What we mean is that it can have the side effects that any other fruit can have: the obvious one being allergy or hypersensitivity to any of its substances. At dosages far beyond the dosages recommended by Doctor's Natural, it may cause diarrhoea and upset stomach, but otherwise no side effects have been reported.

Açaí may even have detox effects

Açaí is very rich in antioxidants and it is possible that when you take it for the first time, you may experience some detox symptoms during the first weeks. These symptoms are due to the fact that the antioxidants and other nutrients are cleansing your body from accumulated toxins and in most cases this is not a sign of intolerance or allergy to the ingredients. These symptoms may include skin impurities, nausea, fatigue and upset stomach; but these symptoms are harmless and temporary and will disappear as soon as your body has cleansed itself of toxins.
