The Camu Camu berry contains more Vitamin C than any other fruit on the planet. The advantages of getting this important nutrient through a wholefood rather than an isolated vitamin supplement are many. Containing phytonutrients that support the absorption of Vitamin C, Camu Camu enhances its positive effect making it even more powerful.
A master antioxidant, Vitamin C promotes the elimination of free radicals generated by the body itself as well as those coming from outside influences. It functions to protect the fat soluble antioxidant Vitamins A and E from oxidisation too.
It is also essential to a healthy immune system, with white blood cells containing over 20 times the amount of Vitamin C than other cells. These cells need constant replenishment to keep the immune system working to its optimum capacity.
Also containing the antioxidant minerals Manganese and Copper, Camu Camu is an excellent detoxifier. When the body is overloaded with toxins it is possible to experience lethargy, digestive issues, bloating, nausea, mood swings and brain fog.
Using Herbal and Superfood powders on a daily basis is simple, easy and can be really delicious. The simplest way is to rehydrate the powder in a little filtered water to make a shot, this can easily be prepared once, twice or three times per day if you are taking the herbs therapeutically. However sometimes the herbs can be bitter so the botanical powders can be added to a superfood smoothie instead of just water. The smoothie can be made with a base of nut milk, seed milk or non-dairy milk such as rice milk. Alternatively the main body of the smoothie can be created with fruit or vegetable juices.
Additional superfood and herb powders can be added to fortify the smoothie with extra beneficial properties. The powders are largely dissolvable and can be scooped in and then blended, shaken or stirred until fully mixed with the liquid. Any true Superfood smoothie disciple would advise that the list of possibilities is endless with the goal to feel great and potentially replace a meal with this glass of super goodness. For full instructions go to our How to take Herbal Powders page.
Another option is to use a Capsule Machine that can be bought from the Indigo Herbs website. Filling capsules with your favourite herb has never been easier when you buy a Capsule machine. You can then be sure that the capsules you are taking are 100% pure ingredients without fillers added by some companies.
This Superfruit Powder can be re-hydrated in water or fruit juice, it can be encapsulated, added to a breakfast smoothie or a Superfood Powder Blend.

Manufacture Process
After harvest the Camu Camu fruit is transported to a production facility where it is washed and inspected by hand. Because of the sticky nature and low water absorbance of dried Camu Camu, the extracted juice has to be spray dried within special canisters with Maltodextrin to make sure that it disolves in water efficiently. The process results in a powder that is powerfully concentrated in Vitamin C and easier to use. Indigo Herbs Camu Camu comes from a supplier who understands the need to place the fruit into cool environments in the period between harvest and processing, the importance of not over heating the fruit and only using the most comprehensively advanced dehydration technology know in the field. The result is a Camu Camu powder that is extremely high in the natural form of Vitamin C. which surpasses the ascorbic acid vitamin C that is used in today's tablets. Please note that this Camu Camu Extract contains 10% Maltodextrin which is used as a carrier.

As I expected. I like the foil bags. I shall usually source this locally, since the postage is then quicker.
