Is Your Vitamin C Fake or Food?
by Vic Shayne, PhD
The highest quality camu-camu contains fifty times more Vitamin C than an orange, plus bioflavanoids, and a combination of phytonutrients unique to the camu-camu fruit.!
Not many people know this, but when it comes to vitamin C we’ve been sold a bill of goods — marketing hype. Vitamin C is a fantastic, important vitamin when it’s in food, but that’s not what you’re getting when you go to the health food store and pick up a bottle. Instead, you’re getting a chemical derived form corn syrup that the manufacturers sell as vitamin C/ascorbic acid. It’s a chemical.
Vitamin C, to be most effective as a nutrient, needs to be contained in its original food such as berries, fruits and vegetables. One of the best sources in the world comes from a special plant that grows along the river banks in the Amazon rainforest called Camu. The highest quality camu-camu contains fifty times more Vitamin C than an orange, plus bioflavanoids, and a combination of phytonutrients unique to the camu-camu fruit.!
We cannot overestimate the importance of vitamin C in fruits (not in isolated vitamin pills), because it is vital for the adrenal glands, heart, lungs, skin, teeth and gums, bones and brain.
Camu is available in a capsule and is a great source not only of vitamin C, but also other important nutrients that only exist in nature’s whole foods from plants.
