BENEFITS OF RAW CAMU CAMU POWDER!



Hey, it's Marco! Camu-Camu (Myrciaria dubia) is the name of a bush which grows in the Amazonian rain forest of Peru. The Camu-Camu bush produces a fruit with the same name which contains powerful phytochemicals with health benefits, including the amino acids serine, valine, and leucine, and more Vitamin C than any other known plant in the world. The camu-camu fruit has a surprising range of therapeutic effects. Many people have stopped using large dosages of synthetic Vitamin C because they find that Camu-Camu is energizing, mood-lifting and highly effective in strengthening the immune system. Got benefits? Absolutely!  The Camu Camu Berry contains powerful phytochemicals, including the amino acids serine, valine, and leucine, and more Vitamin C than any other known plant in the world. Specifically, the Camu Camu fruit contains 30 to 60 times more Vitamin C than an orange in its fresh state, delivers up to 600 TIMES MORE vitamin C than oranges when it’s dried into the powder form.  Camu Camu powder has an exceptionally rich amount of whole, natural vitamin C— quickly becoming one of the most sought-after vitamin C sources in the world. Camu Camu contains important levels of beta carotene, niacin, phosphorus, riboflavin and thiamin.  Also contains trace amounts of iron and calcium. It's a little tart and tangy with a very nice citrus flavor. Add it to your smoothies, fresh, organic, homemade juices and be sure to give it to your children! 

Warning! This wonderful source of goodness DOES NOT, I repeat, does not come in a vaccine! Therefore, no needles and little bootys will be harmed! :D
