Yes, I agree that Acai is not harmful. Seems like a nice berry, and perhaps it's even helpful if it motivates you to eat healthy at the same time. But the colon cleanse that is the other part of the program might not be all that good for you. I'm of the opinion that my body's waste disposal system works best on its own. And I hate that people are being scammed by automatically being signed up for an autoship program that they have a hard time getting out of. Thank you for your clarification, Jill.

Same I think for the Teas. Here's some more info on how that works: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_Per_Action Anyway, I highly doubt the affiliates realize what they are even pushing. They get paid for referring people. It's the company behind it all grabbing names - and they will either sell some you some berries or they will have all your shipping information so they can sell you something else - or as I see from your link they will sneak you into an expensive subscription. It's become so tiring. Honestly, I'm at the point where I believe you that no one is really gonna lose weight from this stuff - but if it's not killing anyone then I just can't get too upset by it.At least if you take some berries you might actually get some nutrients from it. This is what separates this offer from KK. I know - it's not right to be pushing something that doesn't really work. For some though it does seem to have the placebo effect. And before you ask - no, I'm not pushing the stuff. Anyway, love you to death Mariasol - and thanks for warning to dieters that this really won't help them - and to be very careful on exactly what you are getting with those "free" offers.
