Acerola Cherry Powder - Wildcrafted

  
Give your body Natural VitaminC! Too many vitamin supplements contain a synthetic vitamin C and most of this type of version isn't used by the body, instead being expelled in the urine, which causes the kidneys, and liver, to work harder. You need the complex real vitamin C to truly benefit from the vitamin. Real vitamin C is found in natural foods, like the acerola cherry.

Acerola trees grow in the West Indies, where it is also known as the Barbados cherry, as well as in Latin and Central America. The use of the juice of the acerola is the equivalent to the use of orange juice in the United States. These cherries are bright red, pleasant tasting and essentially the same size as regular cherries.

Renowned for its high vitamin C content, (as much as 4.5% of vitamin C per fruit- an orange has about 0.05%), acerola cherries are also high in vitamin A, magnesium, niacin, potassium, thiamine, iron and calcium.

Research into the specific health benefits of acerola cherry powder is ongoing, but studies have shown that vitamin C will:

* Promote a healthy immune system
* Help to prevent colds and infections
* Help to prevent hair loss
* Protect against dental problems
* Promote health and vitality and fight chronic fatigue
* Prevent excessive bleeding and bruising
* Help protect your skin and organs against premature aging
