Organic Acerola Berry Powder - Malpighia glabra, 1 lb, (Mountain Rose Herbs)

Free Gift For Order Over $50. Check out our gift selection.

Acerola has been used traditionally throughout Mexico and South America as an astringent, and antioxidant, as well as for help with dysentery, hepatitis, and fevers. Known as extremely high in vitamin C and antioxidants, acerola fruit is also high in iron, calcium, beta carotenes and phosphorus. Acerola juice is as popular in Brazil as orange juice is in America. Brazilian culture sees it as a nutritive for anemia, diabetes, high cholesterol and liver problems.  
 
Although acerola are now found growing in most sub-tropical regions of the world, linguistic evidence seems to point to the Yucatan as a point of origin for this fruit. Cultivated in southern Texas, Florida, the Caribbean, and Southeast Asia, the largest plantings are in Brazil. Acerola is a fast growing bushy shrub or small tree with small pink and white flowers.  
 
The fruits are round and ovoid with three lobes, and are said to have a pleasant, tart taste. They are bright red when ripe, and come to maturity approximately 25 days after the first buds appear. The fruit of the acerola is the richest known source of natural vitamin C in the world. They are usually picked when still green, because in this state they have almost twice as much vitamin C as when fully ripened.  
 
The fruit must be made into juice quickly as the fruit will begin to ferment and mold in as little as three days after harvesting. If not sold as a juice, the liquid is concentrated and pasteurized, and then spray dried into a powder. The type of acerola powder offered by Mountain Rose Herbs is spray dried into an organic maltodextrin carrier that is made from organic manioc root, and is standardized to have not less than 17.5% natural vitamin C. 
 
Also known as: Malpighia glabra, Barbados Cherry, West Indian Cherry, Cereza, Semeruco, Cerisier, Florida Sweet, Manoa Sweet.

SUGGESTED USAGE
The fruit itself is eaten when ripe, and it is sometimes made into a jelly, jam or syrup. The fruit, when picked, must be processed quickly before it starts to ferment and mold, and most of the nutritional use in the United States is from spray dried, freeze dried, or from concentrated fruits which are processed immediately at the site and exported accordingly.
