Acerola is a cherry-like fruit from Central America. The Acerola bush needs an annual average temperature of more than 26 degrees to grow tall enough and produce a rich harvest. Acerola is one of the fruits with the highest vitamin C content in the world, so it is often used to make vitamin C concentrates. Acerola contains about 30 times more vitamin C than an orange, and it is also suitable for citrus allergy sufferers. The fruit also contains plenty of vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, carotenoids and bioflavonoids. Together, these phytonutrients enhance the absorption of vitamin C and strengthen its antioxidant effects.
