So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

The Truth About Oprah Winfrey and Acai

By Carter Sinclair

On the basin of the Amazon river you will find many ordinary looking palm trees. However, these trees are very special because they are the birth place of the acai berry. This small berry is known as a "superfood" because of all the amazing health benefits those who take it receive.

This amazing fruit is packed full of free radical fighting antioxidants which helps the body fight off disease, improve metabolism, stabilize insulin levels, increase overall energy levels, and fights off the signs of aging.

Dr. Nicholas Perricone, MD has concentrated his dermatology practice in conducting studies on food and other natural products that give the maximum of benefits to the skin and the body. In his most recent publication called the Perricone Promise, he has highlighted a super food called the acai berry that has caught the attention of many.

On the Oprah Winfrey show specialists are often asked to give health presentations for the benefit of her viewers. Oprah invited Dr. Perricone to her show to tell the world about the amazing benefits of the acai fruit. On top of that it was also featured on NBC, Vogue Magazine, Men's Health, CNN, and the London Times.

Dr. Perricone's presentation on the Oprah show he revealed his list of the top ten super foods on earth. Some of them were everyday foods you probably already have in your house, while others were exotic fruits that you probably have never heard of. The #1 food on this list was the acai berry. Dr. Perricone noted that it was the high levels of antioxidants that allowed the fruit to be so powerful against aging.

After that Oprah show, some illegitimate use of Oprah's name has been proliferated over the internet (including fake blogs and advertisements), claiming Acai berry to be a miracle weight loss. What these scamming marketers are doing is to take advantage of a simple presentation on the Oprah show and making it look like Oprah herself is endorsing their specific product.

So, while the Oprah show was really the most important day in rasing awareness of this amazing fruit, Oprah has not actually promoted any specific acai berry pill.

As such, do not be misled by this faulty information. Acai berry really is an incredibly potent health product but you should beware of anyone promoting a product falsely trying to bank off of Oprah's credibility. Thus, the answer to this question is very complicated. Oprah Winfrey is not an official endorser of any acai product, but she has made a point to let the world know how special this fruit really is.
