[quote="GI Jane"]In the General Supplement discussion section there is a thread about Acai Berry that might be helpful. I think the consensus is that it is just hype with no real science behind it.[/quote]

Anti-oxidants in and of themselves do not directly promote weight loss. <br /> <br />The underlying idea behind anti-oxidants for weight loss is the idea that inflammation promotes weight gain. This is true. Inflammation does promote weight gain, primarily because inflammation changes how your body uses insulin. <br /> <br />Want to know what the primary cause of inflammation is? Sugar. <br /> <br />So if we want tackle inflammation as a cause of weight gain, guess where we have to start? That's correct, right back to good old sugar intake. <br /> <br />So does taking Acai Berry reduce the inflammation from eating too much sugar? Bad question. A much better question is "What is the best way to reduce diet induced inflammation?". <br /> <br />Acai Berry isn't even anywhere near your most effective anti-oxidant You would get better bang for your buck from melatonin or plain old vitamin C. If you really want to boost your anti-oxidant protection then consider that the most powerful anti oxidants available to the body are enzymes. Glutathione peroxidase and super oxide dimustase are tremendously more powerful as anti-oxidants that acai berry. This is the first place to start when thinking about fighting inflammation.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>GI Jane</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon Feb 16, 2009 7:13 pm<span class="gen"></span>Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">In the General Supplement discussion section there is a thread about Acai Berry that might be helpful.
