Whole World Botanicals' Product: Royal Camu™ (Camu-Camu)General name: Camu-camu, bayberry fruitScientific name: Myrciaria dubia Sometimes known as: Rumberry, guavaberry, guaveberry, mirto, murta, guayabillo, coco-carette, merisier-cerise, bois de basse batard, cabo de chivo, escobillo, mije, mije colorado, mijo Description: Royal Camu™ comes from camu-camu, the name of a fruit that comes from a bush of the same name which grows close to the river banks in the Amazonian rain forest of South America. The camu-camu fruit is approximately 20 milimeters in diameter and has a pruplish red skin with a yellow pulp. When dried, the pulp becomes light beige in color. The small flowers of camu-camu bush have waxy white petals and an exquisite aroma. 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.

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 botanical. It also contains the amino acids, serine, valine, and leucine, as well as small amounts of thiamine, riboflavin and niacin.
