I'm looking into taking acai berry as a supplement. Will it have any negative
reaction with the Tegretol I am taking for epilepsy?
Dr. Gourmet Says...
There's no research that I have found about any interaction between acai
berry and tegretol.
There is, however, great research that says acai berry is pretty much worthless
for all of the things it has been touted for. Don't waste your money
on these products. There are lots of great berries that are great for
you and a whole lot cheaper.
