Acai Berry is the hottest diet of 2009. Everybody's heard of it. Everyone's talking about it. Acai has been heralded as an all natural weight loss miracle. As a single mother looking to shed a few pounds I was totally intrigued. Acai works to burn fat by providing the following:

Boosts Your Metabolism - Acai raises your metabolism allowing you to burn what you eat more efficiently. This means you'll be burning more calories and losing weight throughout the day.

Appetite Suppression - One of the biggest problems people face trying to lose weight is controlling their appetite. I now for myself, I am a big snacker and find myself constantly munching on sweets. Since I began taking Acai, I've gained control of what I eat and when. By providing natural energy to the body, there is no craving for salty and sugary foods.

Boosts Energy - Your body won't be starved during the Acai diet and your energy levels will increase.

Used in conjunction with a natural colon cleaner, you have the following added benefits:

High Fiber - Adding fiber to your diet allows you to cleanse the colon walls and flush out nasty toxins and remove bowel buildup.

Improved digestion - I used to feel bloated and lethargic every time I ate. Colon cleansing has smoothed my digestion and boosted my energy levels. Now when I eat I don't feel like I'm going to dose off and fall asleep. It also improves blood pressure and regulates cholesterol levels.

During the first week on the program I was able to lose nearly 5 lbs without drastically changing my lifestyle or eating habits. Since I began, I have taken up running and have felt so much more motivated about being in shape. Oprah's Acai berry and colon cleanse diet gave the me the kick I needed to start my weight loss program and is one of the few I've tried that's easy to follow and actually works.
