“…The authors claim that these products protected against tissue damage in the colon and liver. Batista et al (2021) compared the consumption of acerola, cashew and guava residue on obesity and redox homeostasis of adipose tissue in obese male Wistar rats. The authors stated that treatments with acerola and guava increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes in adipose tissue, however, only acerola was able to reduce excess fat in the body.…”

Acerola (Malpighia emarginata) is considered a superfruit due to high vitamin C content and the presence of phenolics that confer antioxidant potential. Increasing of chronic disorders and results of oxidative stress-related diseases has encouraged the search of new pharmacological strategies to face them. The present review discusses the available knowledge on health effects of Malpighia emarginata, including both in vivo and in vitro studies. Records in 1945–2022 were extracted from Web of Science and Scopus databases to get the bibliometric index of the published articles. In spite of bibliometric analysis advantages to knowing about the trends in a subject, this research requires methods to support the investigation process through the selection of a relevant bibliographic portfolio. This study also applied the Methodi Ordinatio which provides an approach to rank 29 relevant publications. Fifty-one research articles were reviewed. Much knowledge comes from in vitro explorations, such as chemical assays evaluating radical scavenging properties, glycemic and lipid oxidation inhibition, and reducing capacity of acerola fruit; similarly, research on cellular substrates and animal models generally measures antioxidant enzymes levels and other antioxidant markers, such as α-glycosidase and advanced glycation end products. Reviewed data suggest that some acerola fruit compounds are deserving of further investigation and more useful understanding of their antioxidant and neuroprotective potentials.

“…Obesity is excessive fat accumulation in body tissues, influenced by genetics, energydense intake, high-fat foods, and the absence of physical activity [67,101]. Excessive body fat gain promotes inflammatory conditions associated with producing pro-inflammatory cytokines, increased production of reactive oxygen species, and decreased antioxidant defenses [67].…”

“…These results suggest that acerola juice reduces inflammation and diminishes obesity-associated defects in lipolytic processes. Vital et al (2021) investigated the effects of acerola-derived products in the diet of male Wistar rats [101]. Treatment with acerola did not alter weight gain, energy efficiency, and body weight.…”

This study reviews the many uses for waste generated from acerola (Malpighia spp.) production, a tropical fruit renowned for its nutrient-rich content. Traditionally considered an environmental burden, this waste is now gaining attention for its sustainable applications in green technology. This review outlines the extraction of valuable bioactive compounds, like polyphenols, carotenoids, and pectin, that can be extracted from the acerola fruit and acerola waste, and it also delves into its potential in materials science, particularly in the creation of pharmaceutical formulations, nanomaterials, composites, biofuels, and energy applications. On the medical front, the paper highlights the promise that acerola waste holds in anti-inflammatory, antihyperglycemic, and anticancer therapies. By outlining challenges and opportunities, the review emphasizes the untapped potential of acerola waste as a resource for high-value products. These findings suggest a paradigm shift, turning what has been considered waste into a sustainable asset, thereby encouraging environmentally responsible practices within the fruit industry.

Acerola (Malpighia spp.) is a tropical plant genus of shrubs and trees whose fruit is rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds. However, its production generates significant waste that could pose an environmental issue. This review aims to summarize recent research on the potential uses of acerola wastes, including the extraction of bioactive compounds such as polyphenols, carotenoids, and pectins, as well as the development of materials such as nanomaterials, chitosan, and biofuels. Additionally, the paper discusses the potential medical applications of acerola wastes, such as wound healing, antioxidant, and anticancer effects. Finally, the paper explores the challenges and opportunities of using acerola waste as a sustainable source of raw materials and energy. The findings suggest that acerola waste could be a valuable resource for developing high-value products and promoting sustainable production practices in the fruit industry.
