You've probably heard of a number of different products containing the acai berry. This little berry is found in the Amazon rain forest, and it is incredibly powerful. It contains a high amount of antioxidants, vitamins B, C, and E, fiber, calcium, and much more. In fact, it has been hailed as a super food, and many different celebrities have endorsed it.
What is the Acai Berry? Many of these online acai products are either very vaguely explained or are very expensive. A one-month supply may cost as much as $100, not including shipping and handling. Fortunately, there's now a way to purchase an acai berry product without dealing with shipping—you can head over to your local GNC and purchase an acai berry product that is only available through GNC.
Ingredients in the GNC Acai Berry Product
This GNC acai berry product includes acai berry extract, yes, but it also includes many other ingredients that aren't distilled from the acai berry. This diluted product is, therefore, not as powerful as other products that contain more acai berry extract and less of other ingredients. While there are no side effects to the acai berry or its extract, some of these other ingredients do cause side effects in some people. This means you need to study the GNC acai berry product's label a bit more carefully than the labels on other acai berry products to make certain there's nothing that will cause you to react negatively.
Cost of the GNC Acai Berry
A bottle of GNC Acai Berry will cost you around $10 - $50. This is for a month's supply. Also some product price are; Garden Greens AçaíBlast: $15 - Garden Greens AçaíCleanse 48 Hour Açaí Berry Detox: $18 - Tahiti Trader Organic Açai Max: $35 - Genesis Today Acai: $42 - GNC Acai Berry: $22 - To Go Brands Açaí Natural Energy Boost: $29 - Purple Antioxidant Drink: $35

It may be cheaper than some other brands

Conclusion
While it is convenient to be able to pick up the GNC Acai Berry product instead of ordering it online, the fact that you have to purchase a full bottle and can't get a free trial may dissuade some people from trying it. The fact that it contains a lot of extra ingredients that may cause side effects is also an issue. Be sure to fully study the label before you purchase it.

i bought the acai berry extract from gnc which is abt 30 dollars, i was wondering if it is as good as the other acai berries out there like acai burn. i dont want to order online so if anyone knows an acai berry i can buy at a store that actually works. the one at the gnc doesnt seem to work as good as i thought, perhaps better results from the acai berry burn or something.

Hi ,I read something about the extract is from the fruit of the acaiberry ,but the way it is processed to make it the extract form they leave out some of the important factors of the acaiberry.The article was basically saying to only use products that are pure acaiberry,when added extras to do different things it takes away.
if you are like me i bought acaiblast from the gnc and im totally disappointed.if using acai for weight lose some articles say they need a fatburner in it,but if you get a product with acai berry only ,the higher the mg of acai the higher the orac the pure the product. i was thinking about gouing to acaiburn,but guess what?it also consist of extras.now im going to pure acai with nothing else in it and take it with a colon clenz.im ordering mine off of ebay.how do you feel about ordering off of ebay when they are going to send you to their stores?
please respond back maybe one of use can come up with a legitamite website like,ebay,amazon etc.also to be on the safe side i usually buy a netspend card for when i want to order something online. i put that amount and nothing else that way if they try todraft for more the card will be empty. why would people use their main account online?
