HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Acai 500 mg by Herbal Secrets
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
Acai 500 mg contains one active ingredient: acai extract, a concentrated form of the acai berry. It's also made with soybean oil, gelatin, vegetable glycerin, beeswax, and soy lecithin as inactive ingredients to form the softgel capsule.
Does it work?
No specific claim
The evidence for acai isn't established yet. Our data rates it insufficient evidence for aging skin, athletic performance, erectile dysfunction, and high cholesterol.
That means the research so far hasn't been strong or complete enough to say whether it works for these uses.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Acai as a food is generally well tolerated, but supplement quality and the effects of high doses haven't been well studied. There isn't enough safety data for acai supplements in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, so caution is advised — talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check antidiabetes drugs (medications that lower blood sugar, including insulin, metformin, and sulfonylureas) with your pharmacist before taking this product. These can interact at Moderate severity.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula marketed for general wellness rather than one specific gradeable purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
This is a single-ingredient product that may appeal to anyone looking to try acai in concentrated form. If you take any diabetes medications, check with us first — that's the main thing to watch.

Formulation
Acai berry is a reddish-purple fruit indigenous to the Amazon region of Central and South America. Acai berries are known as super foods as they are packed full of anti-oxidants, essential fatty acids, resveratrol, flavonoids etc. Acai berries are rich in anthocyanins (plant antioxidant) that support existing healthy cholesterol level, blood sugar metabolism, and fight oxidative stress to support heart health, cell health, and healthy ageing. Acai may also support healthy weight management. Acai is a well-known traditional source of dietary fiber that supports the digestive system by helping to keep it clean and in optimal function. The berries have powerful detoxification capacities supporting overall health and well-being
