NEW BATCH EXP: OCT 2025

WHAT IS CAMU CAMU?
Camu Camu (Myrciaria Dubia) is fruit bush that grows around the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil, Peru, and Columbia.    Over the last few years, the dried fruit powder has become one of the top superfoods in the health world, especially due to its incredible levels of Vitamin C (60x higher than Oranges/Lemons).   The raw powder in these capsules contain 13% Vitamin C, in its natural form - and each cap has the RDA for pure Vitamin C.

WHAT IT DOES:

  1. Camu Camu provides a full natural Vitamin C Complex, with very high levels of important phytonutrients called Carotenoids (especially Lutein and Zeaxanthin which are vital for healthy eyes).     
  2. A 2010 study in Japan found that Camu Camu contained a substance called 1-Methylmalate which suppressed liver damage.   
  3. It is high in anti-oxidants, with an ORAC rating of 52,000 (Blueberries are 9,000 — Strawberries are 4,300)
  4. Most importantly, it is raw, so the Vitamin C and nutrients have not been denatured by heating and processing.

RAW VITAMIN C vs SYNTHETIC ASCORBIC ACID:

  • Ascorbic Acid is main source of Vitamin C in supplements, having first been discovered and synthesised in the 1930s.    Most studies surrounding Vitamin C are done with pure Ascorbic Acid, and it has been highly researched.    Common dosages are 1000mg (1g) upwards per day, with many people taking 2-4 grams, or even higher - especially when suffering from colds.   
  • However, whilst Ascorbic Acid is definitely Vitamin C - it is synthetic, and lacks the other co-factors that are normally bound to it in nature (such as Vitamin J (Choline) — Vitamin P (a selection of plant flavonoids) —  and bio-available Copper)
  • Unlike natural sources, synthetic Ascorbic Acid has a very short “half-life” in the body, with poor uptake - so most of the supplement is lost, and the rest only lasts for a couple of hours... which is why many supplement several times per day... or buy expensive time-release formulations.
  • In natural food sources, only about 10% of the Vitamin C Complex is comprised of Ascorbic Acid - and it acts like a shell (or container) for the other components such as flavonoids and anti-oxidants.   
  • Several worrying studies of commonly high doses of pure Ascorbic Acid show links to kidney stones, the formation of cancer causing genotoxins, thickening of artery walls, and blocking of antioxidant enzyme activity.

OUR CAPSULES:

The capsules we use are made from Pullulan, which is synthesised from tapioca - it is completely inert in the human body, and non-allergenic.   Pullulan is superior to the more common HPMC vegetarian capsules, or gelatine ones, and is highly resistant to oxygen (keeping the product inside fresher).    Unlike tablets, capsules don’t require multiple binding agents, coatings, and preservatives - so you get fewer ingredients.

 

These capsules are supplied in a slimline bag and dispatched 1st Class to be Letterbox Friendly - orders over £39 are sent with a Next Day Courier.
