What are the benefits of acerola?

Source of vitamin C
The benefits of acerola for health are mainly due to the considerable content of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in the pulp of the fruit. But this nutrient becomes scarcer the more the acerola matures.

One study compared the vitamin C concentration of three fruits grown organically in Brazil: acerola, strawberry and persimmon.

The researchers concluded that acerola has more vitamin C than strawberries and persimmons. Being about 2294.53 mg every 100 grams of fruit pulp. And this concentration is even higher in organic fruits (4023.39 mg/100 g).

Source of vitamin A
The same study that analyzed the amount of vitamin C present in acerola concluded that the fruit is a good source of vitamin A.

Antioxidant properties
Studies claim that acerola is rich in antioxidants. Along with vitamin A, vitamin C has antioxidant action. This helps prevent damage caused by free radicals, such as premature aging, and certain diseases.

Vitamin C is important for maintaining the functioning of the immune system. In addition to helping the body fight infections, viruses and even cancer.

The anthocyanins present in this fruit have anti-inflammatory action, and can help relieve chronic pain, such as arthritis.

Acerola improves immunity
Because it is extremely rich in vitamin C, acerola prevents colds and flu, being a great ally of immunity.

May help prevent obesity
According to a 2017 study, acerola was able to reverse part of the metabolism dysfunction caused by obesity in rats. However, other studies must be done to confirm this effect in humans.

Acerola prevents scurvy
Scurvy is an acute or chronic disease caused by a lack of vitamin C. This deficiency can cause bleeding, alteration of the gums and a drop in resistance to infections.

Acerola, when consumed as a food, plays an important role in preventing scurvy. This is due to its high concentration of vitamin C, as with other fruits rich in this nutrient.

Helps maintain skin health
In addition, the vitamin C present in acerola has a fundamental role in building collagen (a protein responsible for maintaining skin elasticity) and protecting the body's mucous membranes.

What does acerola prevent?
Acerola serves as a preventive food for vitamin C deficiency. But there are no studies showing that the consumption of acerola is capable of reversing the deficiency of this vitamin.

If you suspect that you are suffering from the problem, you need to seek medical advice to carry out the appropriate treatment.

In addition, excess vitamin C can be a problem associated with excessive consumption of the fruit. According to the US National Institute of Health, this condition is characterized by problems such as diarrhea, nausea and stomach cramps. High doses of this vitamin also worsen iron overload and damage body tissues in people with a condition called hemochromatosis.

It is important to note that the upper daily limits of vitamin C for adults is 2000 mg per day. This total involves any method of nutrient consumption, whether through supplementation, consumption of fruits and other foods rich in vitamin C.
