Healthy Eating Guidelines and Acai Berry

Posted on 08 August 2009 by Ryan

If you can just follow three quick healthy eating guidelines you can be well on your way to fitting into your skinny jeans again.

With that being said there is a lot of bogus marketing on the internet right now promoting Acai Berry. 

Now, this is actually a great new ’superfood’ in that it is full of antioxidants and other health promoting nutrients, BUT HERE IS THE PROBLEM:

This is being marketed as a “Miracle Weight Loss Cure or Solution”

Most of the unscrupulous companies that are marketing these products are claiming that this berry is the solution to dropping pounds and pounds of weight…with no change in diet or exercise at all…

This is not one of the healthy eating guidelines you should be following.

If you want to add some acai berry to your diet on occasion for the antioxidant benefits, please go right ahead.  But don’t expect anything close to the ridiculous claims that are being made about this product in regards to lighting fast weight loss.

Good old fashioned healthy eating guidelines like the ones listed below along with intense but brief exercise will do more for your body than a few acai berries will ever will in terms of rapid weight loss. 

 I want you to realize just how simple weight loss can be.  You can start with these three tips and you’ll be well on way to losing weight and living a healthier life.

 Healthy Eating Guidelines Tip #1:

super-foods

Incorporate “super foods” into your meal plan on a daily basis.  Some examples are salmon, low-fat plain yogurt, tomatoes, spinach, mixed berries, whole oats, mixed nuts, green tean and various beans. 
 
Healthy Eating Guidelines Tip #2:

Eat 5-10 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. They will help you meet your micronutrient needs for the day. And since they are a good source of fiber, they help you curb your appetite and control hunger.

Healthy Eating Guidelines Tip #3:

Record what you eat and drink.  You will be amazed at what you consume over the course of the day without ever realizing it.  Keeping a food journal is critical to your success because it gives you the true picture of what you are eating each day.

Follow these healthy eating guidelines not only will you see the weight start to fall off, but you won’t be frustrated from spending $50 on an acai berry supplement that only made your wallet lighter instead of you.
