Acai-aSlim is a weight loss supplement that contains the new superfood, the acai berry. Acai-aSlim is a capsule form of acai that is supposed to help you burn fat, remove toxins, boost your energy and improve your overall wellness because of acai's high antioxidant content.
The acai berry comes from the Amazon Rain Forest where it has been consumed for hundreds of years because of its complete nutrition profile. acai contains vitamins, calcium, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Everyone from youth guru, Dr. Perricone to Dr. Mehmet Oz have been praising this tiny purple berry's powerful health profile.
Acai-aSlim includes other healthy compounds like green tea, Hawaiian Noni extract, resveratrol which is an antioxidant found on the skins of grapes. Acai-aSlim does contain caffeine.
Acai-aSlim contains extract versions of very healthy ingredients or foods
CON
No evidence that Acai-aSlim can help you lose weight
No connection between consuming acai berry and weight loss
Not approved by the FDA
Not a long-term solution to weight loss
Automatically enrolled in auto-shipment program upon signing up for the free trial offer
Contains caffeine source (green tea)
INGREDIENTS
Acai-aSlim contains acai berry extract, green tea extract, Hawaiian Noni extract, and resveratrol.
DIET and EXERCISE
There are no specific diet and exercise guidelines to follow while taking Acai-aSlim. But since it does contain caffeine, you should be careful with how much caffeine you consume apart from this supplement.
CONCLUSION
Acai-aSlim is a weight loss and wellness supplement that contains the very popular acai berry in addition to other extracts of nutrient-dense ingredients. The claims of acai berry on the company's website may be exaggerated especially since very little data currently exists that links eating acai berry to weight loss, enhanced sexual function and improved eye sight.
If you are currently taking any medication, speak with your doctor before taking Acai-aSlim.
Common Misspellings
Acaiaslim, Acai Slim, Acai A Slim, Acia aSlim, Acia
I thought it did give me more energy. I did not read the terms and conditions, which I shoud have done. It does state that you do have to cancel within 14 days. There is also a number you can call to cancel. I missed my 14 day window and they did bring the price down from $75. to $42. The women I talked to told me that when it shows on my card, to call and cancel. I did and did not have any problems in cancelling. I will see in February if they really did cancel it if there are no charges. Yes, I feel this is a scam as you did not get 14 day trial from the day you receive the pills, but 14 days from the day they charge you credit card. However, if I would have read the terms first, this may have been avoided.
Does anyone have the phone # to call and discontinue this product?

It gets better. When you call to cancel future shipments, they try to talk you into not canceling and getting refunded your money. It does require you to sign up for one more shipment though. What a joke!!!

Hey, Amy, I can't believe you would take up for this company in any way!!! Perhaps they didn't rip you off as they did the rest of us. Haven't you been reading what we are writing? I am out over $1000.00 yes, that's three zeros, so far. Fortunately, I have a good bank, who is looking into it for me, and will refund all of my money because of they know it is fraud. My representative at the bank said not to even bother with trying to contact the company because they will simply charge my account again with some other company name. She has seen this over and over with this company. Anyone who ;has been ripped off please go to your bank and file fraud charges, maybe we can get these people stopped!!!!!

this company is a scam, their product is poor this is why they send no contact details for us to cancel. Apparently they can just take money from our account when ever they want and we cannot cancel, even with our own bank without giving 31 days notice, who knows haw much money they can take during this period of time!
So far they have taken 3 payments since the middle of december totalling £115, i have received no futher products from them (not that i want any).
Thankyou to whoever posted the phone numbers as i had no way of contacting them, as there were no detils sent out with the origional prodct.

I didn't even use it because I was so angry about being charged 80.00 without knowing it! I tried to call and cancel but was put on hold forever. I guess they have a lot of complaints. I have learned my lesson about ordering "free trials" Please use my bad experience as a warning!

WAY too expensive for the amount of the pills included. The same supplement ingredients can be all bought individually for less than the ridiculous price of almost $80.00 ...
Rip-off to tempt the overweight

Cancel the card you used immediately. It is the only way to prevent them from charging you for products you do not want and they do not work!!

Total scam. Not only that, but the instant you click and order your 'free sample', you will get an email that you are now the proud recipient of a 'free' emagazine fitness subscription. If you don't cancel? You will be billed 79.95 & 29.95 for each of them!!

Thank you to the individual who posted the phone numbers to cancel this product! I called the first number and they did give a confirmation number for cancelling. I found out the SCOOP or SCAM on the so called free trial. They send you a 14 day "Free" sample but it actually comes as a 30 day supply. Evidently, if you don't call within 14 days of siging up for the free trial, they go ahead and charge you for the full bottle and put you on auto shipment! So, guess what? No "FREE" product. You hardly even have a chance to use it before you have to cancel! Don't do it! Your free sample will cost you $160.00-if you're lucky!

SCAM! Already knowing that exersize and eating correctly are the key, I set out to try Acia aSlim in addition to the keys mentioned above. Two week in I lost 1lbs. A far cry from their claims. I received the Acai in a bag with no literature at all. Same as most of you what a croc of ___.

Not only is this a poor product, this company is running a SCAM. It is kind of frightening the kind of presence they have on the internet and tv. They rope people in and then will not refund the money. Scary business. Especially in these economic times to be predators like this is unconscienceable. I hope OPRAH, RACHEL RAY and whoever else has promoted this product involve themselve in an investigation as to how companies like ACAI-SLIM are hiding behind legalistic jargon to scam people. They should be ashamed of themselves.
