So a friend gave me a bottle of this stuff. I googled it, then tasted it. It tastes pretty good and you are only supposed to drink a shot a day, so I've been doing that.

Anyone else tried it, or fed it to your cat or whatever? They make some wild claims about this stuff but hell they do the same about green tea. I think the two biggest claims are cancer resistance and long life. Both pretty hard to substantiate.

Eat right. Do 45 to an hour of resistance training 3X a week. Don't smoke. And don't believe the hype.

Yeah that's good basic advice. I wasn't advocating it or buying any hype. I do know a shot of it makes my scalp tingle for about an hour- though no caffeine listed as an ingredient.

I think this is a network marketing ploy, and I probably won't replace it. I bet prune juice is better for you than this stuff.

Edit- I just read your link. The stuff I got is third from the left in the photo in the article.

Some whore bartender cougar conned me out of 40 bucks for a bottle of that Noni shit like 4 yrs ago. She never even gave me a goddamn blowjob after. Fucking cocktease.Still contacts me through stupid ass friend network sites like MySpace, Facebook, et al.

Maybe you can write to some Government fucker in China about it.

Obviously it depends on the concentration; I see Costco is selling (separately) Goji and Acai smoothies in their bottled juice section -- you could drink more than a shot of that a day. I think some of the appeal of this stuff is as an alternative vitamin (C) delivery system -- some diabetics have been avoiding orange and apple juices in recent years because of the natural (and worse, added) sugar, carbs (pulp), etc.

I know there are a ton of douchebags out promoting an Acai drink packaged in a wine bottle as part of a network marketing business, but i'm in no way convinced it is worth it. I have seen this being sold to old people as a purported 'health supplement'.

or break it into 20 minutes 5-6 times a week. I find I get very little accomplished if I lift hard after about the thirty-minute mark, but others clearly have success with less-frequent/longer sessions. It really depends on how far your gym is from you at the end of the day, you can get a lot done either way, the important thing is just going and doing some work.

It just sounds like some shit Gia would drink to wash down a flax seed cracker.

G, I asked you about this shit a while ago, it was the Monavie one.
