All fruits are good for you during pregnancy, and acai is a very healthy fruit that has a lot of vitamins and antioxidants!

Acai BERRY isn’t a herb its a berry. LoL.
Moving along, acai is great
It is a super food, and absolutely full of vitamins, fatty acids, and all sorts of things that are fantastic for you. I would stick to eating actual acai products as opposed to taking it in concentrated capsuall form. Sambazon has great stuff, I drink their smoothies all the time (I am pregnant) and they make fantastic acai sorbet!

Many people who use the acai berry diet to control their weight worry that using the acai supplements may have potential side effects. The good news is that most people actually suffer no negative side effects because the properties of the acai fruit are completely natural.
In fact, the only side effect you might experience is an allergy that causes a rash or skin irritation. Most people will not have an allergy to any of the components that make up the fruit unless they are allergic to other berries such as raspberries or strawberries. In this case you might want to proceed with caution.
Due to this fact, the berry is usually safe to consume during pregnancy because it is natural. However, every supplement pill is made up of different properties, so the safest way to find out if it will harm your child, is by bringing your diet supplement with you to your next doctor’s visit.
For the most part, the berry is purely natural and has been used by Amazonian women for thousands of years during and after childbirth. However, should not is the operative term here, so always consult a doctor before you take the acai berry supplement while pregnant
