What is it?
What are its nutritional content and health benefits?
Analysis showed camu camu berry has the highest concentration of Vitamin C than any known plant in the world. Yes, even more than oranges. If an orange can offer 1,000ppm of Vitamin C—and that is already high—camu berry can provide as high as 50,000ppm! That’s about two grams of Vitamin C for every 100 grams of fruit
What does Vitamin C do for the body? The list is long. It helps form collagen, blood vessels, teeth, skin, gums, cartilage and bones. An anti-oxidant that prevents DNA from being damaged by free radicals. Also, known to contribute increase of iron absorption, regineration of Vitamin E, heps normal function of the immune system and reduces tiredness and fatigue.
A person with an unhealthy nervous system may experience depression, brain fog (inability to focus sharply), forgetfulness and ultimately, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and otsome degenerative diseases. This same vitamin can protect the nervous system from damage thus avoiding diseases mentioned above.
Take note that unlike synthetic Vitamin C supplements which provide only ascorbic acid, camu berry offers a unique combination of natural minerals and nutrients which other supplements do not have.
It’s only recently that people are getting to know this fruit more so research on camu berries is still limited. But the potential it has shown as far as initial studies are concerned is immense.
What makes our camu camu powder different?
The time between harvesting and processing any Vitamin C-rich fruit is very, very crucial. This short span of time will determine how much nutrients will be retained in the final product.To address this, we carefully pick mature fruits, making sure not to expose the fruits to temperatures exceeding 45°C. The fruits are immediately placed in coolers so as not to lose their nutritional value.
Every fruit undergoes strict inspection. Camu berries chosen for processing are carefully washed by hand, peeled and juiced. Then, the pulped fruit is put in a custom-designed dehydrator and the most advanced dehydrating process is used to slowly remove the fruit’s moisture content—again, at temperatures below 45°C.
Finally, the dried camu berries will be milled into a fine powder. No additives, food colour or preservatives of any kind are added into it. To be absolutely sure the powder is free of microbes and other harmful bacteria, it will be subject to meticulous testing before being packed. Thus, the need for heat sterilisation is eliminated and only the purest organic raw camu camu powder is received by our clients.
