It’s called Acai. They didn’t recommend any particular brand, just the fruit itself, even though there are many scam companies online that are fraudulently using their names to help move their product. I would recommend getting a name brand that you recognize the first time just to make sure you won’t get taken… if you like it, then you can do some research to make sure you get the best deal as far as brand and cost. If you aren’t sure where to start, I can offer some of the brands that should be in your local health food store that would be high quality.

You can get it from any health food store (GNC, Whole Foods, etc) and many other places, but I would be careful about online ads for it (and the “free trials” are hardly ever free since they have to get you to pay for it somehow). Unfortunately, Acai is one of a few high powered antioxidants that are fads right now and when there is a fad, there are always people and companies that take advantage of that popularity and sell their own piece of it. The unfortunate part is that too many of those people/companies make baseless claims in order to sell their product faster and for higher prices.

It’s best to get a product like this from a company that you know and/or trust. If you’d like, I can also point out a few companies out there if you can’t find any in your local area. Good luck and I hope I helped!

I work at Costco and have heard, during the samples, “This is the supplement suggested by Oprah,” and I’m pretty sure this is the one that was being talked about.

Acai supplements are a scam, they do nothing for weight loss and have no more nutritional value then blueberries or cranberries. The Internet and YA is awash with acai scams.

Oprah does not support acai products, and in fact:
