A single acerola fruit, the size of a cherry, contains 28 times the vitamin C as a lemon! Acerola powder also contains numerous co-factors, including bioflavonoids and rutin, making it a full spectrum vitamin C that the body can optimally use. NOW Acerola Powder is a 4:1 extract that yields 180 mg of vitamin C per teaspoon and it tastes great! Children and adults will both like it.

Camu-camu is a fruit that comes from a bush which grows close to the river banks in the Amazonian rain forest of South America. The camu-camu fruit has a purplish red skin with a yellow pulp. When dried, the pulp becomes a beautiful pink in color. Traditionally made into a juice by people of the rainforest to help maintain their health, camu-camu has more Vitamin C than any other known botanical. The highest quality camu-camu contains 30 to 60 times more Vitamin C than an orange, plus bioflavanoids, and a combination of phytonutrients unique to the camu-camu fruit. Unfortunately, most of the commercially prepared camu-camu has a negligible amount of Vitamin C, which has led to a lack of appreciation of this most potent fruit. Camu-camu also contains bioflavanoids, the amino acids serine, valine, and leucine, as well as small amounts of thiamine, riboflavin and niacin.

Camu-camu is traditionally used to support the immune system, to ward off viral infections, and to help maintain optimal health, especially under conditions of stress and anxiety, which tend to deplete the immune system. Camu-camu helps to promote healthy gums, eyes, and skin and supports the functions of the brain (nervous system) and heart (circulatory system). Amazingly, it even has anti-depressant properties!

This product has an wonderful, tart flavor, and can easily be mixed in smoothies, with water or juice, or (pucker) taken straight off the spoon. Available in powder or capsule form, you will be glad you added Royal Camu to your health regimen!

Q. Why does it cost more than other vitamin C products?
A. Camu is only produced in the Amazon rainforest, and it is in great demand, having been discovered as an unparalleled vitamin C source/nutritional product. Currently there is a global shortage of camu and thus the higher price. It is well worth it though!

Q. How does camu compare to your other vitamin C products?
A. Please see our vitamin C buying guide.

Q. Is the Camu Organic?
A. No, because it is sourced from the rainforest away from US certifiers - However, there are no pesticides or herbicides used - grown by indigenous peoples

Q. Does this product use nano technology?
A. When we use the term "nano" in this product, we are NOT talking about artificially and synthetically manipulating matter on the atomic and molecular level, then adding that manipulated material to a product. This method of nano technology is much different. The word "nano" as we mean it is just a very, very small molecule; we are not quantifying its size or using it as a scientific term.

Our "nanized" tincture contains quantum quality herbs which have been naturally fermented by probiotics into very, very small particles. This makes them extremely bio-available so even those with poor digestion can rapidly absorb the "nanized" phytonutrients of the herbal complexes. We are using unique, potent multi-strain probiotic colonies to assist in this "nanization" process.

For instance, with the Max Stress B, Nutritional Yeast is grown on molasses and then the yeast is fed to probiotics. The probiotics pre-metabolize the yeast and make end-chain B vitamins. These nutrients are now held in the probiotic cell which is put in an organic alcohol tincture. When consumed, our mucosa lining take in the alcohol, and when it enters the blood stream, the probiotic cell burst and end chain B vitamins are delivered right into the blood stream.

Q. Can the certified organic alcohol be removed if one prefers?
A. Yes, simply heat the with very warm water to evaporate the alcohol. The temperature should not exceed 110 degrees F.
