Parts Used: Fruit
CAMU-CAMU is a low-growing shrub found throughout the
Amazon rainforest, mainly in swampy or flooded areas.
Because of this, CAMU-CAMU fruit is usually wild-harvested
in canoes because the fruit matures at high water or
flooding seasons. It grows to a height of about 2-3 m and
has large, feathery leaves. It produces round, light
orange-colored fruit about the size of lemons, which
contain a significant amount of Vitamin C even more
important, many bioflavinoids responsible for Vitamin C's
full effectiveness. Its high Vitamin C content has created
a demand for CAMU-CAMU fruit in the natural products
market. Vitamin C is essential for the synthesis of
collagen, a key structural protein of the skin. Adding
Vitamin C to a culture of skin cells (fibroblasts)
dramatically increases the synthesis of collagen. Secondly,
Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant and can help reduce skin
damage caused by free radicals. When Vitamin C is properly
delivered to skin cells, it provides added support toward
reducing wrinkles and improving skin texture.
While oranges provide 500 to 4,000 ppm Vitamin C (or
ascorbic acid), and acerola has assayed 16,000 to 172,000
ppm ascorbic acid, Camu-camu provides 21,000 to 500,000 ppm
ascorbic acid or 2 to 3 grams per kilogram. In comparison,
30 times more Vitamin C is provided in CAMU-CAMU plus 10
times more iron, 3 times more niacin and twice as much
riboflavin. Astoundingly enough, it also supplies 50% more
phosphorous.
Other phytochemicals present are bioflavinoids,
beta-carotene, calcium, iron, niacin, protein, and thiamin
in smaller amounts. The action and properties of CAMU-CAMU
are:
·Astringent
·Anti-oxidant
·Anti-inflammatory
·Emollient
·Nutritive able to accumulate within cells for maximum
effectiveness.
·Vital to the collagen synthesis process. Damage to
collagen, elastin, cell membranes, nuclear constituents and
proteoglycans is caused by UV radiation to the skin
resulting in oxidative free radicals. Connective tissue
breakdown and skin cancer can result. Feeds the skin
topically to provide necessary levels of Vitamin C to
protect against these detrimental agents.
·When applied in a topical manner, can provide up to 20
times more Vitamin C than found in food intake or
supplements.
Several studies have been done on the photo-protective
effects of Vitamin C. UVB mediated sunburn cell formation
was discovered to be significantly reduced and post UVB
inflammation was reduced in those treated with topical
Vitamin C.
