When you are pregnant, doctors always warn you against trying to diet at the same time, since you are effectively not only feeding yourself, but feeding your growing baby too. However, us moms-to-be have more important things to worry about with a brand new baby in the house than how many calories we are consuming to lose that pesky baby weight. But with all the healthy 100% Acai Berry juices on the market recently, especially ones that tout how it promotes weight loss, it can be pretty tempting to pick up a bottle, or one of the less expensive juice blends that have acai berry as one of the juices, and use that to see if it helps. But all the pregnancy books warn you about taking supplements when you are pregnant. But what about acai berry? When it comes to drinking one of the smoothie juices in the market which contain some amount of acai berry, they are generally safe to have in limited amounts, as long as the entire juice or smoothie, not just some of the ingredients, has been pasteurizad. The only time it is considered safe for unpasteurized juice during pregnancy is when it has been freshly squeezed immediately before you drink it (as you would if you had squeezed orange juice and then drank it right away). You can also purchase pure acai berry juice and make your own juice, or even mix it with a glass of orange juice to get the health benefits but without the extreme cost of drinking full glasses regularly. This is how many women drink their acai berry juice. If you want acai berry in a supplement form, talk with your physician or pharmacist before purchasing and using during pregnancy. He or she will be able to recommend a dosage that will not cause any ill effects. Do be aware that many supplements and even some of the power juices contain extra ingredients, and even high amounts of caffeine, so always read the labels carefully before taking. You don’t want to discover you just had the equivalent of a Red Bull with your smoothie or supplement!
