Description
Camu camu (Myrciaria dubia) is a berry native to the Amazon rainforest. While its origins are remote, the so-called superfood has long been used to improve health. Camu camu has become increasingly popular in the United States. Several brands produce and sell the berry in stores and online.
Like tart cranberries, the camu camu berry is too acidic for most people to enjoy its natural state. So, it’s generally processed as an ingredient in blended juices or freeze-dried into a powder that you can take as a supplement, add to smoothies, or blend into other foods.
NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS:
Vitamin C and Antioxidant Content: Nutritionally, camu camu is one of the most concentrated natural food sources of vitamin C, which is also an antioxidant. The fruit’s pulp provides a high amount of vitamin C compared to other fruits.
Beyond the antioxidant vitamin C, the study described the high content of other antioxidants in camu camu. Camu camu demonstrated higher antioxidant content and activity against free radicals than other fruits. Free radicals are harmful substances in the body that cause cell damage, increasing your risk of premature aging and chronic disease.
Other Vitamin, Mineral, and Amino Acid Content :
The study analyzed the nutrient profile of freeze-dried camu camu. The researchers found that potassium was one of the minerals in the highest concentration. Also, the pulp was a good source of calcium.
Per the nutrient profile in the study, camu camu also contained magnesium and smaller amounts of manganese, iron, zinc, copper, and vitamin B12.
camu camu provides some essential amino acids. Still, the berry is not a complete protein nor a substantial source of protein.
