The camu camu is a tree that measures between 3 and 4 meters high and grows mainly in the Amazonian rainforest, near rivers. Camu camu is a small berry type fruit that is 4cm in diameter, red-orange in colour and has a tangy taste. 

Camu camu was used in many ways by the indigenous people of the Amazon: as an anti-inflammatory in traditional medicine or as a substitute for lemon in cooking.

Naturally rich in vitamin C, camu camu berry is also known for its antioxidant properties.

Camu camu helps to combat exhaustion, stress and the common cold thanks to its invigorating and immunostimulating properties that protect the body.
