Acerola is commonly used for extraction of juice. The juice is extracted by breaking fruits into a mash by means of a high-speed stirrer before squeezing in a cider press.
Acerola is most well-known for being extremely rich in vitamin C. Because of this, it’s often used to help with or prevent colds or flu. It’s also used as an antioxidant nutrient. Together with vitamin C, acerola may be taken to boost immunity.
Acerola also contains many minerals and other vitamins, including beta-carotene, lutein, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pyridoxine, folic acid, and pantothenic acid.
Having a reservoir of phytonutrients, the fruit exhibits high antioxidant capacity and several interesting bio-functional properties like skin whitening effect, anti-aging and multidrug resistant reversal activity.
