Camu Camu whole fruit powder is harvested from the edge of the Brazilian and Peruvian rainforests. Camu Camu (Myrciaria dubia) is a native bush to the South American rainforest. It is high in minerals and vitamin C. This deep red-brown powder is a 100% pure low temperature dehydrated (raw) powder containing 16-20% Vitamin C. The Camu Camu fruit has more Vitamin C than any other Amazonian plant. As a fresh berry it contains 30 to 60 times more Vitamin C than an orange.

This powder is typical found in Vitamin C supplement capsules (e.g. Pure Radiance C,). 1/8 teaspoon equals about 500 milligrams of the powder. This means you can get 200 (1/8 teaspoon) servings per 100 gram bag. Since this is a food you can take greater amounts and increase its therapeutic benefit.
