Where to Buy Camu-Camu Powder – You’ll Find it in Shakeology

One of the best things about Shakeology is its super-fruit blend. This proprietary blend not only includes camu-camu but other healthy ingredients such as pomegranate, bilberry, blueberry, acai, and more. What is so beneficial about camu-camu? Let’s start with a brief definition of it:
Camu-camu is a small bushy riverside tree from the Amazon Rainforest vegetation in Peru and Brazil, which bears a red/purple cherry-like fruit. Camu-camu offers astringent, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-pain, anti-viral, emollient and nutritive properties and contains natural beta-carotene, calcium, iron, niacin, phosphorus, protein, riboflavin, thiamin and the amino acids valine, leucine and serine. This makes Camu-camu invaluable for metabolic processes, including the formation of white blood cells, maintaining a healthy immune system, and support for the brain, lymph glands, heart and lungs.

Although the amount of Vitamin C is low in milligrams compared to synthetic versions in pill form, it is still has more natural Vitamin C than any other known plant in the world. It is also well known for its many health and medicinal benefits. Camu-camu may help with:
- Strengthening the immune system
- Healthier gums, eyes, and skin
- Anti-inflammatory
- Asthma
- Depression
- Colds
- Osteoarthritis
Learning about its benefits myself makes me even happier that its included inside of Shakeology. I know Beachbody doesn’t cut corners and the healthy ingredients they place into the product are from whole food sources.
