I've been reading some information on the supplement made with freeze dried Acai Berries. Curious to know if anyone has used this and gotten any results?

It is an anti oxidant, so it will get rid of something

Yeah, CANCER. Here's something I found that describes what an antioxidant is (for those who don't know/are misinformed).
What are Antioxidants? Benefits of Antioxidants
Antioxidants are substances or nutrients in our foods which can prevent or slow the oxidative damage to our body. When our body cells use oxygen, they naturally produce free radicals (by-products) which can cause damage. Antioxidants act as "free radical scavengers" and hence prevent and repair damage done by these free radicals. Health problems such as heart disease, macular degeneration, diabetes, cancer etc are all contributed by oxidative damage. Indeed, a recent study conducted by researchers from London found that 5 servings of fruits and vegetables reduce the risk of stroke by 25 percent. Antioxidants may also enhance immune defense and therefore lower the risk of cancer and infection.
