Jaylee is a spamer i think. Though acai is great for you, lot's of antioxidants!

A few days might not do the trick. Best thing to do is keep up with it until your breath and tongue clear up. When you detox through diet your toxins are released through your skin, urine, stool and tongue, so you are going to have bad breath and a nasty taste in your mouth for several days.
Drink tons of water through out the fast. A good one that I do when I'm feeling lousy is cut out ALL sugars, and starches (flour, rice, pasta, oats etc) eating mostly apples, berries, eggs, homemade popcorn, plain kiefer or yogurt, veggies and drink green tea. Do that for a month and you'll feel awesome and definitely loose weight! If I'm feeling super lousy I eat only apples and drink water for three days.

Type "fasting benefits", and "bentonite clay" into google and read about them...

• What you are going to lose if you fall for one of the acai berry spammers suggestions (where did all of those folks come from?) is money. From what I have read reported here, you get a 10 day free trial - hardly time enough to try out the product - and if you fail to cancel within the 10 days they will charge your credit card $88 a month thereafter.
  
  I would suggest that you have a one day fast of either watermelon, dark grapes with seeds (eat the seeds and all), juiced vegetables or just water. The first two suggestions will clean you out pretty well and perhaps result in as much as five pounds or more weight loss and all four suggestions should help you shrink your stomach a bit.
  
  Here is a 2-3 week diet plan from noted alternative health authority Jon Barron that should also help cleanse as well as help drop a few pounds:
  
  Morning: 20 ounce glass of 50% fresh Orange Juice, 25% organic aloe vera juice, 25% filtered or distilled water. With nuts (5 almonds and 4 walnut halves).
  
  Midday: Tablespoon of flax oil along with a tablespoon of organic cottage cheese. Or 2 tablespoons flax seeds ground up and mixed with 1 cup diluted juice.
  
  4:30: Large (20 oz shake)
  
  2 tbs Accelerator from Baseline Nutrition
  
  1/2 banana
  
  Handful frozen organic strawberries or raspberries or half raspberries and blueberries
  
  1/2 cup pineapple coconut juice
  
  1 cup water
  
  6:00: One tbs psyllium powder in diluted juice.
  
  8:00: one apple, which will actually be quite filling
  
  As needed, throughout the day, Warp Speed.
  
  Obviously, you can substitute juices and fruit in the above menu as desired -- within reason. Keep in mind, berries work well because they are low glycemic fruits.
  
  Do this Monday and Tuesday.
  
  Eat normally on Wednesday (good proteins and vegetables -- avoiding refined grains, sugars, and starches). You never want to go more than two days in a row on a low calorie program in order to keep your metabolic rate up (more than 2 days in a row of low calorie and your metabolism begins to drop) and to reward yourself.
  
  Repeat shake days on Thursday and Friday.
  
  Repeat Wednesday's sensible meals on Saturday and Sunday.
  
  You'll lose weight rapidly on this program -- and feel really good in the process.
  
  Again, keep in mind this is a short term program for 2-3 weeks at a time. For more intensive weight-loss, you will have to go on a slower, more balanced, and more sustainable program.
