Mike Adam's Review of Camu continued...............
Protecting the brain
At the same time camu berry is protecting your eyes from degenerative disease,
it's also protecting your brain from neurodegenerative disorders such as dementia
and Alzheimer's. In fact, if you're interested in anti-aging, or if you're getting up in years
and you want to make sure you have optimal brain performance for the rest of your life,
the camu berry is one of the most important nutritional supplements you can consume.
Think of it as an insurance policy against neurodegenerative diseases.
Obviously, it's not the only thing you can consider; there are many other important nutritional strategies for
boosting brain performance. For example, eating raw nuts and seeds on a daily basis is hugely important for
the healthy functioning of your brain and nervous system. You cannot function at a high level of performance
without healthy oils and plant-based fats in your body; you need those omega-3 fatty acids and oils from raw
nuts and seeds. It is a good idea to consume cod liver oil on a regular basis too, but most importantly, you
need natural, full-spectrum vitamin C.
It's interesting to note that the human body does not manufacture vitamin C. Dogs and many other animals
manufacture their own vitamin C, but humans do not; we must get it from dietary sources. Vitamin C is
complex; it's not just a single, isolated chemical in its natural form. It is delivered through superfruits like camu
in combination with several different supporting phytochemicals which makes the positive effect of vitamin C
even more powerful than when taken alone. That's why I've always recommended that people get nutrition
through plants wherever possible. High-density plants give us the highest nutrition we can get.
Combating Depression
I've documented some of the physiological actions of the camu berry from some extensive research. Some
of this information comes from Dr. Gary Null's book called "The Clinician's Handbook of Natural Healing," as
well as invaluable facts from other authors. My top recommended author on this topic is James Duke, PhD,
author of "The Green Pharmacy" and numerous other books on botanical medicine. Dr. Duke is a champion
of the camu camu berry, and he's written about it extensively in books and published research papers. (Find
his books on Amazon.com by searching for "James Duke")
Through this research, we learn that camu camu is antiviral -- it helps kill viruses that could threaten your
immune system and is a powerful protective agent against colds and the flu. It is anti-arthritic, so it can help
reduce inflammation, which tends to ease the pain of arthritis. And it's anti-atherosclerotic, which means it
can help prevent atherosclerosis, or the buildup of plaque in the arteries. Plaque in the arteries leads to
serious heart disease and eventually heart attacks. It can help prevent the buildup of plaque to protect you
from the foods you may be consuming that tend to cause the buildup of that plaque (such as fried foods or
processed foods made with hydrogenated oils).
Camu camu is also known as an antidepressant. This is not surprising, given that depression is often the
result of a suppressed or poorly functioning nervous system. Of course, depression can have many causes,
but the most common is actually a malnourished nervous system. Depression is not, as conventional
medicine claims, a chemical imbalance in the brain that has to be corrected with prescription drugs. It is
typically just a nutritional deficiency that can be corrected through diet by eating natural foods. The camu
berry is one of the natural strategies you can use to reverse depression, even serious depression.
Camu berry is also documented as being anti-gingivitic, which means it helps fight gingivitis, the gum
disease that can affect dental health.
Next, camu is described as anti-hepatitic, meaning it protects against liver disorders, including liver disease
and liver cancer. This is not a surprising effect, given that antioxidants are protective of the liver in general.
Being a potent antioxidant, it can help support the liver's efforts in detoxifying many of the chemicals to which
you are exposed.
Today, in the Western world, we are exposed to so many outrageous chemicals. Most consumers expose
themselves to literally hundreds of dangerous chemicals through the use of hair spray, shampoo, hand soap,
laundry detergent, cologne and perfume. In fact, there are over 20 known carcinogens in most perfumes sold
on the market today. Those perfumes are illegally marketed in violation of FDA laws because they don't carry
cancer warning labels, but that's a loophole that the FDA is not currently enforcing. The fact that your liver is
detoxifying all the chemicals you're exposing yourself to is one of the primary reasons the camu berry can
help your liver stay healthy.
Easing inflammation
Camu berry has also been shown to promote fertility. Infertility is on the rise in the United States, where as
many as one out of four couples can no longer conceive. That is a frightening statistic. Part of what's wrong is
the fact that people aren't getting good nutrition, and they aren't protecting themselves against the toxins that
they are exposed to through their foods and their environment. The camu berry can help protect you against
those toxins, and subsequently boost the chances of conception in both men and women.
(Please note that camu camu alone is not sufficient to protect you from heavy metals like mercury or lead.
The best products I know of for that purpose are called Metal Magic from www.BaselineNutritionals.com and
HMD Heavy Metal Detox from www.HeavyMetalDetox.net)
There is also evidence of the camu berry having an anti-inflammatory effect. Inflammation not only affects
arthritis, it also affects heart health. In fact, inflammation and the C-reactive proteins are a hot topic now in
medical literature. People are more aware of how inflammation is a systemic problem, meaning it affects the
entire body (and all the organs in it). Vitamin C is an excellent anti-inflammatory supplement, and when you
get high-density, full-spectrum vitamin C from camu berries, you get one of the best anti-inflammatory
medicines from the natural world.
Once again, vitamin C is not a single, simple magic-bullet solution to inflammation, but it can be part of an
overall anti-inflammatory nutritional strategy that includes healthy oils, herbs like curcumin or turmeric, and
many anti-inflammatory foods and beverages. When working to prevent inflammation, it is important to avoid
consuming foods that cause it: Processed sugar, white flour, fried foods and vegetable oils high in omega-6
fatty acids (such as soybean oil and corn oil). Many researchers now theorize that systemic inflammation is
largely brought on by an imbalance in the consumption of omega-6 fatty acids vs. omega-3 fatty acids.
People are consuming way too much omega-6 oils and not nearly enough omega-3 oils.
