Camu-Camu is a fruit that comes from a bush which grows close to the river banks in the Amazonian rain forest of South America. The Camu-Camu fruit has a purplish red skin with a yellow pulp. When dried, the pulp becomes a beautiful pink in color. Traditionally made into a juice by people of the rainforest to help maintain their health, Camu-Camu has more Vitamin C than any other known botanical. The highest quality Camu-Camu contains 30 to 60 times more Vitamin C than an orange, plus bioflavanoids, and a combination of phytonutrients unique to the Camu-Camu fruit. Unfortunately, most of the commercially prepared Camu-Camu has a negligible amount of Vitamin C, which has led to a lack of appreciation of this most potent fruit. Camu-Camu also contains bioflavanoids, the amino acids serine, valine, and leucine, as well as small amounts of thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin.
Camu-Camu supplements are traditionally used to support the immune system to ward off viral infections and to help maintain optimal health, especially under conditions of stress and anxiety, which tend to deplete the immune system. Camu-Camu helps to promote healthy gums, eyes, and skin and supports the functions of the brain (nervous system) and heart (circulatory system). Amazingly, it even has anti-depressant properties!
Royal Camu has an wonderful, tart flavor, and the Camu berry powder can easily be mixed in smoothies, with water or juice, or (pucker) taken straight off the spoon. Camu berry powder and Camu capsules are available. You will be glad you added Royal Camu to your health regimen! Fun Fact - The Camu-Camu berry contains 50 times more vitamin C by weight than an orange!

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why does it cost more than other vitamin C products?
A. Camu is only produced in the Amazon rainforest, and it is in great demand, having been discovered as an unparalleled vitamin C source/nutritional product. Currently there is a global shortage of camu and thus the higher price. It is well worth it though!
Q. Is the Camu Organic?
A. No, because it is sourced from the rainforest away from US certifiers - However, there are no pesticides or herbicides used - grown by indigenous peoples.

Helps stabilize mood!
I originally bought this for the vitamin C not knowing it has antidepressant properties. However, I noticed a side benefit within two days! Suddenly, I no longer felt down as I usually do! I've been fighting depression all my life and refuse to take prescriptions. I've also noticed that I can handle stressful situations easier as well. I didn't even realize the side benefits until it had already happened. Now, it's not a cure-all product but I figure every little bit helps. And whatever is in this has helped stabilize my mood more than ANY other herb I have ever tried. I hope this review helps someone else as well.

Stopped my arryhthmia
For 4 yrs I have had unaccountable PVC's. Holter monitor every yr showed 7%. This yr, after using the Mg spray for 3 months, my cardiologist called me to tell me that I had not one PVC. And I have so much more energy. (I also lost 25lbs too, so it might be a mixed blessing.)
