Camu Camu Powder | Organic (Myrciaria Dubia)
The Camu berry is derived from the Camu Camu shrub (Myrciaria dubia), a tiny tree in the Myrtaceae plant family.
Camu benefits include anti-inflammatory properties, gum and eye health, treatment of herpes, and immune system support. Acerola and acai are two superfoods recognized for their high vitamin C content, but camu actually has more vitamin C than both.
It has 50 times the vitamin C, 10 times the iron, and three times the niacin of an orange. It is antiviral, antioxidant, and anti-genotoxic. It can help boost energy, improve mental health, and support the neurological system.
According to research, the high nutrient punch of camu can also improve intestinal health and block free radicals and other pathogens from entering the body, offering protection against bacterial infections, viruses, and other disorders.
The high vitamin C concentration is particularly important in its capacity to boost liver function and assist the brain in producing more serotonin, which can improve mood.
Use
Take 1 tsp mixed into drinks, hot beverages such as lattes and hot chocolate, smoothies, hot or cold cereals, granola, overnight oats, bars, chia seed pudding, or even baked products (although cooking it at high temperatures may destroy some of the phytonutrients).
Notes
◉ Should be stored in airtight glass containers -in a cool, dark, and dry place- to preserve the flavor, texture, and properties.
◉ Before adding a new herbal remedy or supplement to your daily routine, you should consult with a medical doctor or holistic health practitioner.
