The acerola bush can reach a height of up to 3 metres and its fruit consists, to 80%, of a juice with an exceptionally high content of vitamin C. It is the world's richest vitamin C containing plant.

Production
Our acerola extract is produced in a gentle spraying process, from sun-ripened acerola fruits. Vitamin C is an extremely sensitive substance, therefore treatment and storage methods are very important as light, air and heat can all do damage to this vital substance.
Human Need of Vitamin C
Human Need of Vitamin C
As the human organism does not produce vitamin C by itself, we depend on additional supplies of this vitamin. Under certain conditions such as stress and bodily strain, our demand for vitamin C mounts rapidly.
For example: to absorb 1 gram of vitamin C, we would have to eat more than 2 kg of freshly picked oranges per day. This need can be covered by approx. 6 g
(1 ½ teaspoons) of our acerola powder. For persons with an allergic reaction to citrus fruits, our acerola extract can be an ideal solution as well.
