The fruit

The acerola cherry

Vitamin C from acerola: as fruit powder or standardised extract.

A cherry from the tropics

The acerola (Malpighia), also known as the Barbados cherry, grows as a shrub or small tree in Central and South America, including Brazil. Its red fruits resemble cherries but have a distinctly more tart flavour.

Rich in vitamin C

Acerolas are naturally rich in vitamin C. The exact amount depends on the variety, degree of ripeness and harvest.

Easy to measure out as a powder

Fresh acerolas spoil quickly. In powder form, however, the fruit can be stored easily and is simple to measure out; 1 g per day is sufficient.

Transparent labelling

Fruit powder and extract: what’s in each size

Our two sizes currently differ in terms of raw material. That is why we list the details separately.

100 g: acerola fruit powder

The 100 g pack contains acerola fruit powder from Brazil. The vitamin C content comes from the fruit and is subject to the fluctuations typical of natural products. One measuring scoop (1 g) provides 156 mg of vitamin C.

300 g: acerola fruit extract

The 300 g pack contains an acerola extract standardised to 25% vitamin C. One daily serving (1 g) therefore provides a full 250 mg of vitamin C.

Same use

For both sizes: 1 g per day, about one level scoop, stirred into cold or cooled drinks and food.

Background

What is vitamin C?

A water-soluble vitamin

Unlike many animals, humans cannot produce vitamin C (ascorbic acid) themselves. It must be consumed regularly through food.

Vitamin C in food

Good sources include, for example, peppers, broccoli, kale, citrus fruits and berries. The German Nutrition Society recommends 95 mg of vitamin C per day for adult non-smoking women and 110 mg for adult non-smoking men.

Sensitive to heat and light

Vitamin C is broken down by heat, light and oxygen. So only stir the powder into cold or cooled food shortly before eating, and keep the pouch tightly closed, dry and protected from light after opening.

From the fruit or synthetically produced?

L-ascorbic acid from acerola is chemically identical to synthetically produced L-ascorbic acid. No fundamentally better effect can be inferred from its source.

Frequently asked questions about acerola powder
