Acerola cherries a native to Brazil, Central America, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico, Puerto Rico and South America.

Acerola cherries have huge amounts of antioxidants.  They are well-known for having 13 times more vitamin C than oranges.  They also contain other vitamins such as A, B1, B2, and B3.

What are the best ways to eat Acerola Cherries?

Acerola Cherries are not easy to find and are costly if you live in the United States.  That is why I recommend acerola cherry powder.  The powder is made drying the fruit at low temperatures to keep their enzymes alive.  It is very concentrated powder, so it is important to only buy organic and NON GMO verified products.

I use the acerola cherry powder to add to smoothies.  Here is the best brand and product to use:

Ancient Berry Superfood Mix from My Nutrition Advisor contains acerola cherries, flax seeds, chia seeds, beet powder, pomegranate powder, goji berry powder, acai berry powder, camu camu powder and macqui berry powder.
