Navitas Organics Camu Camu Powder, 3 oz. Bag, 17 Servings — Organic, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free

Camu camu, a low-growing shrub found throughout the river corridors of the Amazon rainforest of Peru and Brazil, is a remarkable superfruit that boasts an impressive nutritional profile. The camu berry is one of the world's most abundant sources of vitamin C, providing up to 60 times more C per serving than an orange. This small red fruit, which resembles a tiny apple, is also rich in a broad range of other important nutrients, including antioxidants, amino acids, beta-carotene, and potassium.

The camu berries are sustainably hand-harvested by family farmers who expertly navigate their shallow canoes in the swampy habitat where the camu shrubs thrive. To create Navitas Naturals Camu Powder, the seeds are removed from the berries, and then they are milled at low temperatures into a fine, soluble powder. This red-orange powder has a tart berry flavor, and many people in Peru enjoy incorporating it into various culinary creations, such as ice cream, sweets, and beverages.

For those seeking a simple and refreshing way to enjoy the benefits of camu, a "camu punch" can be made by stirring a spoonful of the easily dissolvable powder into a glass of water and adding a touch of natural sweetener. Camu powder can also be used to provide a tasty superfruit boost to juices, smoothies, and yogurt.

Camu camu's exceptional antioxidant profile, including its incredible vitamin C content, sets it apart as a true superfood. In fact, just 1 teaspoon of Navitas Organics Camu Camu Powder provides an astounding 760% of the daily recommended value of vitamin C – 10 times more than an orange. This low-temperature dried powder is designed to preserve the fruit's rich nutrients, making it a valuable addition to your daily regimen to support longevity and vitality.

Whether you're looking to enhance your smoothies, create delightful desserts, or simply enjoy a refreshing camu-infused beverage, Navitas Organics Camu Camu Powder is a versatile and nutrient-dense ingredient that can elevate your health and well-being. With its USDA organic, kosher, non-GMO, vegan, and gluten-free certifications, this product offers a convenient and high-quality way to unlock the remarkable benefits of this Amazonian superfruit.
