Abstract :
Obesity can contribute to inflammatory processes increasing the prevalence of chronic non-communicable diseases. However, there is a consensus among researchers that fruit and vegetable intake is effective in treating obesity and its comorbidities due to their vast content of phytochemicals and active ingredients. Camu camu, (Myrciaria dubia (HBK) McVaugh) a natural fruit from the Amazon, has attracted the attention of experts due to its high content of vitamin C and polyphenols. Therefore, different bioactive compounds present in camu-camu fruit could be used to delay or prevent various diseases among them obesity.
