Organic Camu Camu (Raw) 100g

Organic camu camu powder is an exceptionally vitamin C-rich superfood made from the camu camu berry – a small, tangy tropical fruit that grows wild along the Amazon River in South America. It is one of the most concentrated natural sources of vitamin C, containing 12% vitamin C by weight.

Camu camu powder is a powerful and natural dietary supplement that supports the immune system, helps maintain energy levels, and promotes overall vitality. It is made from organically grown berries, carefully dried and milled without any additives, to preserve the fruit’s natural nutrients and bioactive compounds.

What is camu camu and how is it processed?

Camu camu (Myrciaria dubia) is a small sour berry native to the Amazon rainforest. The fruits are harvested at peak ripeness, gently dried at low temperatures, and then ground into a fine powder.

Thanks to the low-temperature drying method, the powder retains a high concentration of natural vitamin C, as well as other valuable plant compounds such as flavonoids, anthocyanins, and ellagic acid. The result is a 100% natural, organic, raw, and additive-free powder, ideal for enriching your daily nutrition with nature’s own micronutrients.

Nutritional Value and Active Compounds

One of the greatest strengths of camu camu powder is its very high vitamin C content. On average, each gram of powder provides approximately 120 mg of vitamin C, making up to 12% of its total mass – one of the most potent natural sources available.

In addition to vitamin C, camu camu powder contains a variety of bioactive compounds, including:

• Flavonoids – natural antioxidants that help protect cells

• Polyphenols – reduce oxidative stress and inflammation

• Amino acids (e.g., valine and leucine) – support metabolic functions

• Iron, calcium, and potassium – minerals essential for cellular and muscle function

This well-balanced mix of nutrients helps the body cope with everyday stress and environmental challenges in a natural way.
