Camu camu : shrub native to the Amazon forest, it grows mainly along the Amazon and Ucayali rivers and can grow up to 8 meters in height. The plant produces small edible red / purple fruits which are considered to be one of the richest natural sources of Vitamin C in the world.

Acerola : climbing plant native to South America, it can reach 5 meters in height. It prefers a tropical climate and clayey and sandy soils.
The fruit of this plant is small, deep red in color and has a very sour taste. It has a high content of Vitamin C, about 20 times higher than that of orange juice.

Rosehip : its fruits, rich in Vitamin C, are represented by a swollen ovary which, once the petals have fallen, remain attached to the stem of the flower; the name of Rosa canina originates from the scientific name of its fruits "cinnorodi" which in Greek means "dog rose" and which identifies this species of rose, which lives in the wild.

Consumer information

Of all the Vitamins, Vitamin C is the most unstable and easily degrades: it is soluble in water, photosensitive and is damaged by oxidizing agents. It is found mainly in the pituitary, adrenal glands, lens, liver and brain. The body is unable to produce Vitamin C and must therefore obtain it through food. To maintain a correct level of Vitamin C in the blood it is necessary to take it constantly and if the diet does not provide it in adequate doses, it must be supplemented with special products.
Vitamin C deficiency is found in particular in some categories of people. Here are some people at risk of Vitamin C deficiency:

• smokers
• pregnant women
• lactating women
• teenagers
• Senior citizens
• alcoholics
• subjects under stress
• workers exposed to heavy metals
• diabetics

A Vitamin C deficiency can also be due to the following factors: toxic gases, environmental pollution and drugs. Vitamin deficiency is frequent and can often be traced back to modern nutrition, as foods lose a large part of their vitamin content during industrial processing.
Signs of Vitamin C deficiency are: shortness of breath, difficult digestion, capillary fragility (cause of gingival bleeding and cause of pinpoint bleeding), skin problems, weakening of the dental enamel, tendency to bruise, swollen or painful joints, nosebleeds, anemia , decreased resistance to infections. Teeth may feel looser and lose fillings. Even minimal deficiencies in Vitamin C can cause gum disease that allows bacteria and toxic substances to penetrate the tissues causing periodontal disease.
