Acerola Cherry Extract
Spec: 17% Vitamin C (HPLC)
Description
Acerola cherry is a type of small fruit, similar to a berry, that grows on a tropical shrub that belongs to the Malpighiaceae plant family. The acerola cherry tree (which has the scientific name Malpighia emarginata or Malpighia punicifolia) is native to tropical parts of the world, including Mexico, the West Indies and the Caribbean.
Like other cherries and berries, studies show acerola is low in calories but a great source of phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals. Each acerola fruit has several tiny seeds, which are edible and where some of the fruit’s antioxidants are found. Eating the skin, which is green when the fruit is immature but then changes to orange and finally bright red once matured, is also encouraged to obtain fiber and phytonutrients.
