At this point in time, it's hard to say. Much of the Acai effects are media/internet hype and speculation. Dr. Oz stated on Oprah that Acai may be "just as good" as any other "dark colored" fruit/vegetable....just because something has a "lot" or "high" antioxidant count, doesn't necessarily make it better for you. If you chose to take Acai while taking blood pressure medicine, I would consider monitoring your blood pressure to make sure it doesn't increase. I read many sites/blogs/forums which noted that Acai supplements (caplet, pill, or powder form) actually increased blood pressure..... and I know someone who actually had a similar affect. I don't know, maybe they didn't "give it enough time" to work...? Maybe that's part of it "doing it's job" - to increase blood pressure, in order to "battle off" the free radicals? And then, perhaps over time, the blood pressure is supposed to drop back down to normal? I don't know....but I gave them the recommendation to stop their usage....they didn't even know they had BP until they were denied a blood donation. And donated fine 3-5 months earlier (Acai-free then). As I said though, perhaps the high blood pressure is a "temporary" side effect? I don't know, I'd be curious....but buyer/user beware.
