Camu-Camu Mega C 500 mg Silvestre - 60 Cápsulas

What is Camu-Camu Mega C?

Camu-Camu Mega C is a food supplement that provides 500 mg of natural vitamin C from the wild camu-camu fruit (Myrciaria dubia), native to the Peruvian Amazon. Therapeutic Laboratories selects this superfood for its exceptional concentration of vitamin C, much higher than that of other fruits such as orange or kiwi. Each package contains 60 vegetable capsules, ideal for those seeking a pure, additive-free source of this essential nutrient.

Camu-camu is known for its unique nutritional profile: in addition to vitamin C, it provides natural flavonoids and antioxidants that promote its synergistic action. Being wild-crafted (collected in its natural habitat), the integrity of the fruit is preserved, and pesticides or synthetic fertilizers are avoided.

Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C plays key roles in the body, recognized by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Authorized health claims include:

• Contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
• Contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
• Increases iron absorption.
• Contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin, and teeth.
• Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
• Contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

These effects are obtained with adequate intake as part of a varied and balanced diet.

Why choose a natural source of vitamin C?

Synthetic vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is chemically identical to natural vitamin C, but plant foods like camu-camu contain cofactors and bioactive compounds that may favor its absorption and utilization. Camu-camu offers a natural complex of vitamin C accompanied by bioflavonoids, anthocyanins, and other polyphenols with antioxidant activity.

By choosing a wild-crafted product, you support the sustainable harvesting of Amazonian fruits and the conservation of native ecosystems. Therapeutic Laboratories is committed to ethical and quality practices, guaranteeing a product free of artificial excipients.

Recommended dosage

The recommended daily dose of Camu-Camu Mega C is one (1) capsule, which provides 500 mg of vitamin C. This amount is within the range established by European health authorities (180-2000 mg daily for adults) and is adequate to cover the daily needs of most people.

Do not exceed the stated daily dose. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet. Keep out of the reach of small children.

This product is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, as the capsules are of vegetable origin. It does not contain gluten, lactose, or added preservatives.

Frequently asked questions

Is it the same as pure ascorbic acid?

Although the vitamin C in camu-camu is also ascorbic acid, it comes from a natural source that includes other phytonutrients. Some studies suggest that the plant matrix may influence bioavailability, but more research is needed. In any case, it is an excellent option for those who prefer whole ingredients.

Can I take it with other supplements?

Yes, vitamin C is compatible with most supplements. However, if you are taking anticoagulants or have any medical condition, consult your healthcare professional before starting any supplementation.

Who is it recommended for?

This product is suitable for adults who wish to increase their vitamin C intake naturally, especially during times of increased immune demand, during seasonal changes, or for those on a diet low in fruits and vegetables. Not recommended for children without medical supervision.
