Native to the vast flood basin of the Amazon rainforest, Camu-camu is a low growing shrub that produces fruit the size of lemons that contain the highest concentration of vitamin C of any food on the planet. Camu-camu contains over twice the levels of vitamin C as the Acerola Cherry (a more famous Amazonian fruit) and thirty times the level found in Oranges.
The key advantage from taking a natural Vitamin C supplement such as Camu-camu is that it is gentle on the stomach, and easier to digest and metabolise by the human body than synthesised vitamin C.
In addition, Camu-camu is an excellent source of gentle iron, phosphorous, potassium, vitamins B2, B3, beta-carotene and other carotenoids. It also contains amino acids, bio-flavonoids, anthocyanins and other nutrients that can aid in the absorption of the vitamin C
