[Antimicrobial activity in vitro of Camu-Camu (Myrciaria Dubia) against oral microorganisms: a systematic review].

OBJECTIVES.: To evaluate the antimicrobial activity of Myrciaria dubia on oral microorganisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS.: A systematic review of the literature following PRISMA guidelines was conducted through searches of studies published between 2008 and 2018 in Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO, ProQuest, EBSCO, and Google Scholar. RESULTS.: Eleven (11) in vitro studies were gathered; all the studies showed positive antimicrobial activity on gram-positives, mainly by each of the parts of its fruits. However, such activity compared to chlorhexidine in only two studies, and, in another study, it was better

Nutritional and Phytochemical Profile and Potential Anticancer Benefits of Amazonian Exotic Fruits.

The focus on natural compounds and their potential health benefits has gained considerable momentum in scientific research, particularly in the context of cancer prevention and treatment, a global issue that demands innovative approaches. Among natural sources, fruits from the Amazon rainforest have garnered attention for their rich nutritional profiles and bioactive compounds, which may provide therapeutic properties. This study aimed to compile scientific data found in the literature up to 2025 on the nutritional compounds, phytochemicals, and anticancer properties of selected fruits includi

Tensile Strength of Nylon Sutures Versus Polyglycolic Acid Sutures Immersed in Camu camu (Myrciaria dubia) and Tumbo (Passiflora tripartita) Juices: A Linear Regression Model.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the predictors of tensile strength of nylon and polyglycolic acid when immersed in Peruvian camu camu and tumbo juices. METHODS: An in vitro experimental and comparative study was conducted following the CRIS guidelines for reporting laboratory studies. A total of 192 samples of sutures were tested under laboratory conditions, measuring their initial resistance at days 3, 7, and 14. The juices, prepared in an artisanal way to preserve their natural characteristics, were monitored for pH daily. Mechanical tests were performed using a digital tensile machine, and data were

From the Amazon to modern pharmacology: medicinal plants as metabolic and cardiovascular modulators in cardiodiabesity.

This study presents a literature review on the therapeutic potential of five medicinal plants-Astrocaryum aculeatum (tucumã), Plectranthus barbatus (Brazilian boldo), Myrciaria dubia (camu-camu), Ilex paraguariensis (yerba mate), and Passiflora incarnata (passionflower) - in the management of cardiodiabesity, a complex condition that interconnects type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases. The methodology involved systematic searches in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science platforms, using descriptors related to medicinal plants, clinical conditions associated with cardiodiabesity, an

Potential of natural products and gut microbiome in tumor immunotherapy.

Immunotherapy is a novel treatment approach for malignant tumors, which has opened a new journey of anti-tumor therapy. Although some patients will show a positive response to immunotherapy, unfortunately, most patients and cancer types do not achieve an ideal response to immunotherapy. Therefore, it is urgent to search for the pathogenesis of sensitized immunotherapy. This review indicates that Fusobacterium nucleatum, Coprobacillus cateniformis, Akkermansia muciniphila, Bifidobacterium, among others, as well as intestinal microbial metabolites are closely associated with resistance to anti-t

Seguridad y Precauciones

La seguridad del consumo de Camu camu (Myrciaria dubia) debe abordarse con cautela debido a su densidad extrema de compuestos bioactivos. En relación con el embarazo y la lactancia, no existe evidencia clínica suficiente en humanos que garantice la seguridad absoluta de su consumo concentrado; por lo tanto, se recomienda evitar suplementos de alta dosis durante estas etapas para prevenir posibles efectos sobre el desarrollo fetal o neonatal, debido a la falta de estudios de toxicidad reproductiva específicos. Para niños menores de 12 años, la administración de extractos concentrados no es recomendable sin supervisión pediática, dado que su sistema metabólico está en desarrollo y la ingesta masiva de ácido ascórbico y otros polifenoles podría alterar el equilibrio osmótico o la microbiota intestinal en formación. Respecto a las interacciones farmacológicas, el Camu camu presenta riesgos significativos: con la warfarina y otros anticoagulantes, su alto contenido de vitamina C y polifenoles podría alterar la coagulación sanguínea, incrementando el riesgo de hemorragias; con la metformina, su potencial efecto hipoglucemiante (reducción de glucosa en sangre) podría potenciar la acción del fármaco y causar hipoglucemia; y con antihipertensivos, su capacidad para modular la presión arterial podría sumar efectos hipotensores no deseados. No se ha establecido una dosis máxima segura estandarizada para consumo terapéutico en humanos, aunque estudios clínicos han utilizado dosis de 1.5g diarios en cápsulas [PMID 39168095]. Los efectos secundarios reportados, principalmente en estudios de alta concentración, incluyen malestar gastrointestinal, náuseas o diarrea debido a la acidez y la carga osmótica de los azúcares y ácidos.
