I have been looking into taking Acai berry tablets but was concerned that I may be too young and that side affects may occur if I take them. I am an underclassmen in highschool. What do you think?

when your over 18 i suggest you take em

DO NOT take them. Arrgh, so many people have been brainwashed!
Acai berry is just a standard berry, like blueberries or raspberries. They all have minor health benefits. Unfortunately, some greedy companies started stretching the truth and they were able to make Acai berry seem like a wonder drug. The truth is, Acai is just another fad diet and will crash and burn when people start to realize they wasted their money on something that doesn't help them lose weight.
Stop looking for supplements to do a job they can't do when you can lose the weight by yourself.
To lose fat:
1. DON???T BELIEVE THOSE FAD DIETS! DIET PILLS ARE GIMMICKS! Yes, Acai berries/pills/juice is a fad diet.
2. DO NOT STARVE YOURSELF! Unless you are 4ft tall, a 1,200 calorie a day diet is DANGEROUS and won't work in the long run.
3. Calculate your BMR. Do a google search. A good calculator would ask for your age, height, weight, and activity level.
4. Eat healthy and eat about 500 calories a day less than your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). Your BMR is how many calories you need per day to maintain your current weight.
5. Eat 5-6 small meals a day. This keeps your metabolism up. Each meal should include fruits, veggies, water, and protein.
5. Drink at least 64oz (8 8oz glasses) of water a day. No soda (that includes diet soda).
6. Do light/moderate cardio 3 to 5 times a week for 30 to 45 minutes each time. Running, bicycling, and swimming are great for this.
7. Do some strength training to make sure you lose fat and not muscle. Don't worry you won't look like the hulk if you lift weights.
8. You should lose about 1-2lbs (.45-.9kg) per week. If you lose more than that, chances are the rest is stool, water weight, or even muscle mass.
9. Weigh yourself only once a week at the same time (ie every Friday morning). Your weight fluctuates a lot during any 24hour period because of water and food intake and also bowel movements.
Be patient and be smart. If you follow this guideline you will be very happy with your results.
