I am mad and about to BLOW my lid.
Diet and fitness scams make it hard for people
to believe in honest fitness
professionals that can get them real results.
It is my job to get you real world results and keep you informed.
I was happy when fellow fitness professional Rocco Castellano notified
me about these acai berry scams
I MUST warn you.... AVOID THE ACAI BERRY SCAMS!!
This also includes Wu-Yi tea or any other fruit or tea cleansing program
that "Will Burn 30lbs of fat in 1 month"
I first want to say and get this straight...
I am not bashing the actual acai berry, Wu-Yi tea, or
valid cleansing programs that promote clean eating in
a healthy lifestyle.
I am a big fan of fruit and I personally drink herbal teas.
Antioxidants from fresh fruit and a quality multi-vitamin
are a great way to start to lose fat while getting all your daily nutrients.
I even like Acai smoothies or drinks like Monavie. These type of drinks
will give your body antioxidants that you need because the berry is kept closest to
its natural state.
While I believe that most people have
a whole bunch of toxins in their digestive track. Losing 10lbs worth of
digestive gunk does not count as "fat loss or burn".
Here is a run down of how the scam works...PAY ATTENTION
and PLEASE share this BLOG post with your friends.
These are the components of the scam...
1) They will say something like Becky's weight loss, Mary's weight loss, or the
name of any female that you can think of.
2) A lot of these web sites are formatted as BLOGS. If you noticed even if the name
changes the story, pictures and even the testimonials will stay the same.
note: some of these scammers will even steal testimonials from other
people's BLOGS as they did to my colleague Holly Rigsby "The Fit Yummy Mummy" of GetFitandYummy.com
3) They will either...
A) use a "regular average woman"
or
B)use celebs such as Oprah, Dr. Perricone, Racheal Ray, or whoever has given
acai berry 2 thumbs up.
(Hey forget the fitness professional like myself and dietitians! If a celebrity says it works then they MUST be correct. I mean celebrities are "experts")
>>> insert sarcasm here <<<
4) Read the terms and conditions. If there is a 30day trial
period the shipping usually takes 15 days. Your trial period starts the moment
you order. Even if you don't have the physical product. And some of theses
sites mention that AUTO SHIP SALES ARE FINAL. say adios dinero
because your bank card will get charged and by "LEGALLY AGREEING"
you can not do anything.
LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL...not quite
If you do want to get your money back >>>insert prayer<<< you can not simply return the product you will have to call their "REFUND DEPARTMENT" which will probably always be busy.
So long and short avoid the scams and if you want the benefits of acai it is best to get it in some form of drink. If you can get the actual berry call me personally. I love exotic fruit. Acai berry will help you lose as much fat as broccoli. Basically its fiber which gets you full and causes you to eat less junk. Hey don't forget about the antioxidant which we all need.
Okay now there is light at the end of the Tunnel because in my next BLOG post I am going to give you the secrets of detox and fat loss...
stay tuned and thanks for reading.
Yours Coach in Health and Performance,
Nii
P.S.-HHHMMM I wonder if I can get rich quickly with a Broccoli and Carrot cleanse pill. I guess I will just stick to my day job folks.
