No, and I would be very reluctant to use something that I KNOW is not going to facilitate weight loss and could possibly harm my re-routed digestive tract. Please don't fall for snake oil promises. If you have constipation issues use something approved as safe like Colace, Miralax or a probiotic. If you're trying to lose weight then go back to the basics of your bariatric eating plan. If you don't have that information or like get confused sometimes, ask here. There are tons of knowledgeable folks who can help. Please, just know that if any of those products actually worked no one would be here, including this website.

I have not tried it yet, but have been considereing it... I have been having terrible constipation issues and nothing "normal" has been working.... th Acai berry is supposed to be good for energy levels. I had my blood work done and everything seems normal but I am still very tired all the time. I am a year+ out from RNY and the energy levesl should be back up by now... I wouldn't use any of it for additional weight loss but I may look into it for energy.
