Micro-nutrients may
add years to your life
Most people in the
modern world are suffering from micro-nutrient
deficiencies simply because the commercial food crops
are grown in nutrient exhausted soil. This is why the
Rainforest is so important. Our Camu Camu trees are
grown on the banks of a lagoon in an Amazon flood plain.
What this means is that each year during the rainy
season the river banks flood and our trees are six feet
under water for almost four months. As the water recedes
the soil and nutrient matter that has been moved around
the Rainforest is re-deposited.
Camu Camu grows in
the Richest Soil on Earth
This natural cycle
ensures the richest nutrient soil for the Camu Camu
plants. From this soil, the camu camu trees are able to
pull a natural density of vitamins, minerals and amino
acids in the exact ratios necessary for life. This is
why the Camu Camu fruit is packed with a rich, balanced
profile of unique, vital nutrients not available from
any other source.
Harvard Research on
Life Extension
One of the most
important of these anti-aging micro-nutrients is
resveratrol. Harvard researchers found the polyphenol
resveratrol may extend life span and protect against
cellular damage by increasing the activity of sirtuin
enzymes which help control the rate at which organisms
age. Other important co-factors include amino acids,
which may play a beneficial role as anti-aging agents. |
