Camu-camu is a native Amazonian fruit mainly known for its high vitamin C content. Its composition confers high antioxidant capacity on this fruit and makes it a potential source of antioxidant products. The use of spray-drying with the aid of a carrier agent is a technique that has been applied for the preservation of important components of foods and drugs. The objective of our work was to evaluate the influence of those agents used as shell material on the vitamin content and total phenolic compounds of camu-camu powder juice obtained by spray-drying. Materials and methods. A commercial frozen camu-camu pulp was the raw material; maltodextrin and gum arabic were the selected carrier agents. Processes were performed in a mini-spray-dryer with inlet and outlet air temperatures of 180 °C and 85 °C, respectively, and a drying air flow rate of 700 L·hâ??1. Laser diffraction was used to determine the particle size distribution of the samples, and sorption isotherms of spray-dried camu-camu were measured using a static gravimetric method. Total phenolic compounds and vitamin C were determined in the raw pulp and in the powders obtained. Results. When using gum arabic and maltodextrin as the carrier agents, the moisture results obtained for the spray-dried camu-camu powders were 2.8% and 3.2%, respectively; the process yield was 84% and 72%, respectively. The spray-dried powder produced using gum arabic presented higher contents of vitamin C [(15,363 ± 226) mg·100 gâ??1] and phenolic compounds [(6,654 ± 596) mg GAE·100 gâ??1] than the powder obtained with maltodextrin, respectively (11,258 ± 298) mg·100 gâ??1 and (5,912 ± 582) mg GAE·100 gâ??1. Conclusions. The concentration factors for the vitamin C and phenolic compounds in camu-camu powder reveal the effectiveness of spray-drying to preserve the antioxidant capacity of this fruit. Gum arabic was a more effective barrier than maltodextrin for bioactive compound retention.
Cocoa is thought to have first been used by the Maya civilization of Central America. It was introduced to Europe by Spanish conquerors in the 16th century and quickly became popular as a health-promoting medicine. Cocoa powder is made by crushing cocoa beans and removing the fat or cocoa butter. Today, cocoa is most famous for its role in chocolate production. However, modern research has revealed that it does indeed contain important compounds that can benefit your health. Benefits 1) Rich in Polyphenols That Provide Several Health Benefits 2) May Reduce High Blood Pressure by Improving Nitric Oxide Levels 3) Cocoa has other properties that may reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke 4) Polyphenols Improve Blood Flow to Your Brain and Brain Function 5) May Improve Mood and Symptoms of Depression by Various Means 6) Flavanols May Improve Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes 7) May Aid Weight Control in Many Surprising Ways 8) May Have Cancer-Protective Properties 9) Theobromine and Theophylline Contents May Help People With Asthma 10) Antibacterial and Immune-Stimulating Properties May Benefit Your Teeth and Skin
Cacao nibs are small pieces of crushed cacao beans â?? or cocoa beans â?? that have a bitter, chocolatey flavor. Theyâ??re produced from beans derived from the Theobroma cacao tree, also known as the cocoa tree. Cocoa beans are dried after harvesting, then fermented and cracked to produce small, dark bits â?? or cacao nibs. Some cacao nibs are roasted while others are not. Unroasted cacao nibs are called raw cacao nibs. These rich, chocolatey nibs are loaded with nutrients and powerful plant compounds that have been shown to benefit health in many ways. Theyâ??re amongst the least processed cocoa products on the market and substantially lower in sugar than other chocolate products, making them a healthier alternative for chocolate lovers. One ounce (28 grams) of cacao nibs provides : Calories: 175 Protein: 3 grams Fat: 15 grams Fiber: 5 grams Sugar: 1 gram Iron: 6% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI) Magnesium: 16% of the RDI Phosphorus: 9% of the RDI Zinc: 6% of the RDI Manganese: 27% of the RDI Copper: 25% of the RDI Unlike many chocolate products, cacao nibs are naturally low in sugar. Theyâ??re also a good source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats â?? nutrients that help promote feelings of fullness

Passion Fruit Is Highly Nutritious Passion fruit is a good source of nutrients, especially fiber, vitamin C and vitamin A. A single purple passion fruit of about 18 grams contains (1): Calories: 17 Fiber: 2 grams Vitamin C: 9% of the RDI Vitamin A: 8% of the RDI Iron: 2% of the RDI Potassium: 2% of the RDI This may not seem like much, but these are the values for a single, small fruit that contains only 17 calories. Calorie for calorie, it's a good source of fiber, vitamin C and vitamin A. It's also rich in beneficial plant compounds, including carotenoids and polyphenols. In fact, one analysis found that passion fruit was richer in polyphenols than many other tropical fruits, including banana, lychee, mango, papaya and pineapple (2). Additionally, passion fruit contains a small amount of iron. Your body doesn't usually absorb iron from plants very well. However, the iron in passion fruit comes with a lot of vitamin C, which is known to enhance iron's absorption

The research published on this plant reveals that it has a broad range of therapeutic properties, including anti-leukemic, anti-tumorous, and anti-cancer activities against various types of cancer cells.It was found out that water extracts and ethanol extracts of Anamu plant retard the growth of the leukemia cells and several other strains of cancerous tumor cells in an in vitro study by Italian researchers in 1990. Anamu extracts were resistant to a number of bacterial and fungal strains. Two of the phytochemical compounds in the anamu plant dibenzyl trisulphate and astilbin are believed to destroy cancer cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed. Taditional use of anamu as a treatment for cold and flu symptoms Its extracts can even relieve pain and inflammation when applied to the skin.

Dragon Blood is a latex or resin from a tree which is native to our Peruvian amazon. It is used in a curative way as a healer, regenerator, and also as anti-inflammatory and in digestive problems. Traditionally, this resin is used to speed up the healing of slow-healing wounds. Researchers from all over the world have studied and confirmed the properties discovered centuries ago by the native peoples of the Amazon. Researchers from the University of Barcelona, in collaboration with researchers from the University of Buenos Aires, studied how the antioxidant property of Dragonâ??s blood intervenes in the modulation of the immune system. They observed that some resin compounds act by stimulating â??phagocytic cellsâ??, while others act by inhibiting them. Available for Export Supply. Presentation: Gallon 20kg. MOQ: 100KG
