The Indigenous Amazonian people pick the Camu Camu berry (Myciaria dubia) in season, then dry and powder them, turning this purplish-red, cherry-like fruit to a light beige color. It has been traditionally used as a medicinal herb, improving the bodily functions of the brain, eyes, heart, lungs, liver and skin. It is also believed to help ward off the common cold, influenza and other viral diseases, various health conditions such as asthma, edema and heart disease, support strong collagen, tendons and ligaments, decrease inflammation, and help deal with stress and anxiety.

This is an indication that the berries have been picked early, and are often mixed with fillers and sweeteners to enhance the flavor. The most nutritionally powerful and pure Camu Camu Powder is a beige color, demonstrating that the berry has matured to its maximum potential and is just the pure dried fruit.
