Hi, my name is Betty Johnson and I am just a busy mom who applied to weight over 168 pounds. Zola Acai came to my attention various months ago as I was looking for a solution for my weight problem…(back to my story later) But here is what I found: It is one the most standard Acai drink brands marketed by a San Francisco based multilevel retail company which was founded by Chris Cuvelier. This Acai juice are devised with 100% organic Acai Berries that are hand harvested from acai Palm trees. If you haven’t heard in regards to Acai, it is actually a little grape-sized berry that grows in the Amazon Rainforest. Acai has 500% more antioxidants that blueberries and 60% more than pomegranates, no wonder nutrition experts call it the “#1 super food.” This amazon grown fruit is a major share of Brazilian’s each day diet and may make up to half of feed intake for a meal. Studies, researches and aweinspiring results from clients have proven that Acai berry bestow mainly to: * great weight loss Aside from the initial nutrients that come with Acai Berry, more powerful and healthful nutrients are added into the Zola Acai Juice: * Omega 6 and Omega 9 fatty acids, plus 8 of the 9 necessary amino acids You may find 3 flavors of this Acai juice in the market today – the primary flavor, Pineapple flavor, and Blueberry flavor. You must suppose to pay regarding $20 for a pack 12 bottles (12-ounce bottle). In addition to it is flavor variety, Zola Acai drink is different from galore other Acai Berry drinks in 3 ways: * Only 100% unfiltered Acai are use to achieve fresh taste Back to my story. So when I was doing exploration when it comes to Acai using Google, I came throughout couple web sites that offered Free Acai Berry Trials. Then I learned that Oprah and Rachael Ray actually both commended Acai Berry as a weight loss supplement. Long story short, the Free Trial and Oprah’s endorsement genuinely pushed me forward to give the tryouts a shot. 2 Months later, I have lost closely 42 pounds. That is right, I lost when it comes to 7 pounds for each 10 days. I was so excessively affected emotionally that I devised a blog just to share my aweinspiring weight loss success with those who are still engaged in a struggle with endless diets that just don’t work. |

Zola and migraine
By Eugene
This is a long message. I apologize for its length. I would like to communicate my experience with Zola Acai Blueberry. I started drinking it, and the other two drinks in this series, Zola Acai Plain and Zola Acai Pineapple, several months ago, before they switched over to their new processing and bottling procedures. I tried all three drinks, and eventually became addicted to Zola Acai Blueberry. When they switched over to their new methods, I was at first disappointed, because I was used to the old taste and composition, but the contents were exactly the same, and I quickly became addicted to the new. It’s by far my favorite drink, and I have to stop myself from drinking more than 3 bottles each day.

Healthy but Odd
By GreenJen
I ordered 2 cases of this based upon the fact that the beverage contains substantial antioxidants. When I tried it, I found the taste pretty odd, and the drink rather gritty. Not terrible, just not particularly appealing. I guess that is the compromise you get with something so good for you. I will finish drinking all of my order eventually but will not be ordering more. I would not call this delicious for sure! Gibing it four stars anyway because others may enjoy the flavor more than I do, and it is indubitably healthy. One suggestion only – drink it very cold, as it seems a bit better that way.

Rating:5 out of 5 stars
My third case of Zola Acai Blueberry arrived and there are improvements: the texture of the beverage is less pulpy but not watery in any way; the balance between blueberry and acai is perfect. The bottle has a new seal and cap and indicates the juice is flash pasturized. Great product. I hope Amazon keeps it available.
Great Experience…..
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I read the reviews before I ordered and decided to see if I would have better luck than the others. I placed my order late on a Friday night and had my case of juice by that following Tuesday. I had absolutely no probelems and the juice is great. Sorry that the other people had such bad experiences, hopefully the Vitamin Shoppe has improved their service and if the customers try again, they will have a more positive experience.
TERRIBLE SERVICE
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I agree with the person referred to as ‘Homer’ who also commented on this product. If possible, I would have given zero stars as well.
I received several email updates over one month telling me that my item was on backorder (yet, the Vitamin Shoppe site still purported that it ships immediately). I called to exchange it, but the service rep just insisted on NOT doing his job – wouldn’t exchange it, wouldn’t tell me if the blueberry flavor was in stock – then he wanted to charge my credit card a second time. I refused to give him my card number and allow a second charge. I could not make him understand that my credit card had already been charged once for a product I hadn’t even received. Perhaps they really do try to steal from their customers. I went to a local Vitamin Shoppe to try and sort this out, but the personnel there proved equally contentious and incompetent. Nothing was accomplished. Next day they canceled the whole order and exchange. To their credit, however, my money has been refunded.
This entire transaction has been a HUGE FAILURE and waste of my time. The Zola brand Acai juice is great, but ultimately I think that flying to Brazil to get it could be faster and easier than getting anything out of the Vitamin Shoppe.
YUMMMM!!!!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is a yummy drink. Very good flavor. The juice has not been filtered so it is not a clear drink. I have not noticed feeling different after drinking, maybe I need to try it for a longer time. I am looking forward to my next shipment.
Very Good Taste!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Not only does this drink have very good nutrients and antioxidants, but most importantly, the flavor is natural and well mixed, not too over-powering of a blueberry flavor. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a flavorful, nutritious, acai drink.
Great healthful juice!
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
This product wasn’t available for awhile, but now seems to be back in stock. Don’t order it from another health store featured on Amazon, you’ll never get it! Order it directly from Amazon. This juice tastes just like another acai juice from Monavie, but costs about a tenth of the price. After drinking it daily (only 2 oz.) I do feel more energetic and alert, and I feel good about all the antioxidants I’m getting.
Zola and migraine

I started drinking it, and the other two drinks in this series, Zola Acai Plain and Zola Acai Pineapple, several months ago, before they switched over to their new processing and bottling procedures.

All that is fine, but it’s not the real story. The real story is that it changed my life, because for at least the 8 years previous to that I had suffered from life-crushing migraines. I was a classic migraine sufferer, with perhaps two major migraines each month that completely incapacitated me for 20 hours each time once they began. During that time I could do no more than sit up and fast with my back against the wall and legs raised up to bed height, in total darkness, with no noise, and in excruciating pain. It was impossible to do anything but sit there in total darkness and silence for 20 hours, trying to doze off as much as possible to escape the pain, and just watching the clock frantically waiting for the expected 20 hours to end my misery. I could not lie down on the bed, because that made the pain even worse.
In between these major bouts of horror, I had numerous smaller migraines of various sizes. On most days I had migraines. Sometimes they forced me to lie in total darkness and silence for hours, sometimes they permitted me to work, read, or watch TV, but I was almost never free of headache for more than one or two days per week. On most nights I went to bed sitting up, to minimize the pain.
When I started drinking Zola Acai, I noticed within a week that my migraine condition had suddenly improved a lot. As more days went by, it became increasingly undeniable that this was no random fluctuation. When a couple of rainy days came and I had no migraine, I knew that something really remarkable had happened. At that point I began a serious analytical effort trying to discover what was the cause of the sudden relief I was now experiencing.
After some two to three weeks I had eliminated everything but the Zola Acai, of which, at that time, I was drinking perhaps 3 or 4 bottles per week. I searched on Google for some indication that acai could help a migraine, but ultimately found insufficient to my satisfaction. Meanwhile
I kept increasing my intake, and the more I did, the more relief I got. I also began checking on the other ingredients of the same drink. I took a hard look at the 24 mg of guarana berry (natural caffeine) that is in each bottle. When I checked on Google I found a number of entries pointing to guarana as helpful for migraine.
Gradually, I became convinced that it wasn’t the acai at all that was giving me the relief, but the guarana. At that point, I purchased a large bottle of guarana tablets from sourcenaturals.com (or more specifically, from the Life Extension foundation, which purchased them from sourcenaturals). Each tablet has 200 mg of guarana caffeine in it. I cut each in half, and began taking half a guarana tablet each day (the dosage on the bottle recommends 3 full tablets, 600 mg, for “energy” each day, and says not a word about migraine).
I have continued drinking the Zola Acai, so I get about 150 to 175 mg of guarana caffeine per day in all. I rarely drink coffee, and seldom even tea. This regimen has all but removed migraines from my life. I have recommended Zola and guarana tablets enthusiastically to many people, but most people I know don’t have migraines, and I am not sure that anyone has ever taken me up on it so far, so I don’t know the results. When I can no longer afford Zola, I have reason to believe I will be fine on the guarana tablets alone, although I expect that I will probably have to up the intake each day to a full tablet (200 mg). Meanwhile, I keep drinking the Zola Acai Blueberry because I love it. I’ve tried other acai drinks, but they don’t even begin to match up for me in taste and satisfaction.
It’s necessary to emphasize that my experience is totally anecdotal, that of one man, me. I know of no scientifically controlled studies to confirm what I’m saying. As far as I am aware, there aren’t any, at least not yet. For perhaps 2 years prior to that I tried feverfew, which has given partial relief to some subjects in controlled studies, but I could not claim any relief from it, and finally just gave it up. Over-the-counter headache drugs, which have given some relief at times to others, just made my migraines worse.
I no longer get the life-crushing migraines that plagued my life for years. I have gotten some two or three migraines during the last 6 months, evidently due to extreme insufficient sleep 2 to 3 nights in a row. These attacks lasted up to 20 hours each, but were not enough to stop me from writing, reading, going on the Internet, and watching videos. For someone used to real migraines, these were far from serious.
Please spread this message as much as you can. I do not know how many it will help or not help, but it recounts an experience that has literally changed my life. Please include the whole message, if possible, and point out that this experience is as yet entirely anecdotal, so I have no idea how many people it might help and how many not. Migraines can come from entirely different sources, and there is little doubt that there are many migraine sufferers whom it not help at all. But the change was so sudden, dramatic, and emphatic in my own life, that it’s hard not to expect that there will be others who will find a comparable relief.
By the way, the price on Amazon is unexpectedly low. The cheapest I have found in New York City is $2.49/bottle at this time, minus 10% for an order over $150.00. That was at Whole Foods. Amazon’s price is even lower, especially on small orders, and the best I have seen.
I have no relation at this time other than as a customer to Amazon.com, Source Naturals, Life Extension Foundation, or Zola, Inc.
