Free radicals attack
healthy cells resulting in premature aging. The
anti-oxidant nature of Camu Camu fights these free
radicals and protects cells, including fibroblast cells.
Fibroblast cells are
necessary to build collagen and elastin essential in
keeping skin youthful and vibrant. Additionally, other
Camu Camu nutrients such as beta-carotene, riboflavin
and niacin assist in optimizing healthy skin, hair and
nails. As an added bonus limonene another compound in
Camu Camu has been shown to reduce appetite and aid in
weight loss.
