Some people especially manufacturers of acai berry supplements have been known to claim that there are no acai berry side effects. However, these claims can only be substantiated by further research. Despite these claims, there is one major side effect of acai berry consumption i.e. loss of appetite. This can be considered a plus for those looking to lose weight using the acai berry. Unfortunately, those using the berry for its medicinal properties may find this quite challenging.
The degree of appetite loss related to the acai berry is directly proportional to the purity of the berry juice / supplement. People who are already underweight should therefore stay away from the acai berry and try to find an alternative. However, among the acai berry side effects, this is the one that users should be least afraid of since one would have to consume a large amount of the berries or their supplements before they can notice this side effect. This means that even underweight people can still enjoy the benefits of this berry if they use it sparingly.
Another one of the acai berry side effects is allergies. Some people may find themselves allergic to the acai berry. However, this is not unique to acai berry supplements. Each and every supplement comes with the possibility of allergies and therefore people are advised to be cautious when trying new things especially supplements. If one finds themselves to be allergic to acai berry supplements, they should discontinue its use with immediate effect.
It is also worth mentioning that some acai berry supplement manufacturers add caffeine to their products. In this case, caffeine acts as a filler enhancing the effects of the supplement. Some people have little or no tolerance to caffeine and they may take acai berry supplements without knowing that they may contain caffeine.
