Camu Camu

FruitMe Camu Camu berries are wildly-harvested (by hand) at peak ripeness, then washed, dehydrated, and gently milled. This low temperature, whole-fruit preservation method protects as much inherent nutrition as possible, including fragile vitamin C!

Each teaspoon serving of our Camu Powder provides a whopping 682mg—760% of the DRI—of vitamin C! Packed up in its whole-food form, this vitamin C is biologically complex and arrives with other nutrients that help with its absorption and assimilation.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that plays a crucial role in overall health. It supports a strong immune system by helping the body fight infections and reducing the severity and duration of colds. Vitamin C also promotes collagen production, which is essential for healthy skin, joints, and wound healing. Additionally, it aids in iron absorption, making it especially beneficial for those at risk of iron deficiency.

Beyond immunity and skin health, vitamin C contributes to heart health by helping to lower blood pressure and reducing the risk of chronic diseases. Its antioxidant properties help combat oxidative stress, which may protect against premature aging and neurodegenerative conditions. Since the body doesn’t store vitamin C, regular intake through fruits, vegetables, or supplements is essential for maintaining optimal health.

All of our superfoods are considered safe for every use by all health states and ages in their recommended serving sizes. Because they are whole-food products and not extracts, isolates or concentrations, they are generally well tolerated. If you have any specific questions regarding elderberry intake, we recommend talking to your health practitioner.

Camu Camu has a bitter/tart berry flavour and pairs well with other fruits, specifically citrus and tropical, in smoothies, juices and desserts.
