NOW Foods Acerola Powder provides a natural, whole-food source of vitamin C derived from acerola cherries (Malpighia glabra) — one of the richest natural plant sources of ascorbic acid, with concentrations up to 30 times higher than oranges. Unlike synthetic ascorbic acid, acerola powder delivers vitamin C alongside naturally co-occurring bioflavonoids, carotenoids, and other phytonutrients that work synergistically with vitamin C for enhanced antioxidant activity and absorption. This makes acerola a preferred vitamin C source for those who want their nutrients from whole-food sources rather than isolated synthetics. The powder format is versatile — add to smoothies, juices, or water for a natural vitamin C boost. NOW Foods provides 6 oz of pure acerola powder in a resealable bag, certified for purity and identity.
