About Acerola
Acerola, also known as Barbados cherry, is a bright red tropical fruit native to Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Rich in vitamin C, acerola is one of nature's most potent sources of this essential nutrient, containing far more vitamin C than oranges. It also provides beneficial antioxidants like carotenoids and polyphenols, along with small amounts of vitamins A and B, and minerals such as potassium and magnesium. Acerola is widely used in juices, smoothies, jams, and dietary supplements due to its tangy flavor and health benefits. Known for supporting immune function and skin health, it may also help combat oxidative stress. However, consumption should be balanced, as high levels of vitamin C might lead to gastrointestinal discomfort in excessive amounts. Acerola’s vibrant nutrient profile and versatility make it a valuable addition to diverse cuisines and nutrition-focused lifestyles.
