[kingj]

Does anyone have any experience with this....everything I read online seems to be a bit too good to be true. I think we all know that usually means it is just that..too good to be true..Any info would be appreciated.

Waste of money if you ask me. I know a couple people that sell Monavie, its acai juice. Big pyramid type scam where they say you will make tons of money by getting other people under you........ I think its ridiculous.

Monavie might be a scam but acai itself can be found in a pure freeze dried powder by tons of supplement companies for way cheaper. I have used the sambazon brand powder, usually mix a scoop in with protien shakes couple times a day. I cant honestly say I feel anything but dont know if you are suppossed to. I mean do you actually feel antioxidants doing what they do? I dunno but there is a lot of research to back up the health benefits. I have yet to read or hear any claims that refute the positive claims. I tried some juices too but like someone already said they are not pure and probably not delivering the benefits of freeze dried powder.

I have seen this supp used mainly for its diuretic properties. (makes you shed water weight) usually in conjunction with other diuretics in the form of teas or pills.


so by it self i'm sure it doesn't do much but in conjunction with other supps i'm sure it will help get rid of water weight.

the water weight piece is very interesting
