Navitas Camu Camu Powder, 3 oz. Bag - 17 Servings

Camu camu is a low-growing shrub that thrives in the river corridors of the Amazon rainforest, primarily in Peru and Brazil. Famous for its small red berries, camu camu is recognized as one of the richest sources of vitamin C available, offering up to 60 times more vitamin C per serving than an orange. Alongside this impressive vitamin C content, the camu berry boasts a diverse array of essential nutrients, including antioxidants, amino acids, beta-carotene, and potassium.

These tiny, apple-like fruits are harvested sustainably by family farmers, who skillfully maneuver their shallow canoes through the swampy areas where camu shrubs flourish. The process of creating Navitas Naturals Camu Powder begins with the extraction of seeds from the berries, followed by low-temperature milling to produce a fine, soluble powder.

In Peru, camu camu is enjoyed in a variety of forms, including ice cream, sweets, and beverages. The Navitas Naturals Camu Powder itself has a vibrant red-orange hue and a delightful tart berry flavor. For camu enthusiasts, a simple yet refreshing “camu punch” can be prepared by mixing a spoonful of this easily dissolvable powder into a glass of water, with a touch of natural sweetener added to enhance the taste. Additionally, the camu powder serves as a delicious superfruit enhancement for smoothies, juices, and yogurt.

Camu camu is often referred to as a superberry due to its exceptional antioxidant profile, which includes more vitamin C than any other food known to us. Just one teaspoon of this powerful powder contains ten times the amount of vitamin C found in an orange, accounting for an impressive 760% of the daily value.

To ensure that its rich nutrients remain intact, Navitas Organics employs low-temperature drying methods in the production of their Camu Powder. This careful processing helps fortify the body, supporting longevity and overall vitality.

The versatility of camu camu powder allows it to be easily incorporated into a variety of diets. It makes a great addition to smoothies, sweet beverages, dressings, and desserts, making it a perfect superfruit ingredient for enhancing nutritional profiles.

Navitas Naturals’ Camu Powder is USDA Organic, kosher, non-GMO, vegan, and gluten-free, with each package containing enough powder for approximately 17 servings. This superfruit is not only a nutritional powerhouse but also a flavorful addition to your dietary regimen, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to boost their health naturally. With its vibrant flavor and incredible nutrient density, camu camu is truly a remarkable fruit that brings the essence of the Amazon rainforest to your table.
