It used to be camu-camu, but not anymore. Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) is now the World's Richest Source of NATURAL Vitamin C, 50% higher than Camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia).

Kakadu plum is native to Australia, and contains 3 grams of vitamin C per 100 g of fruit, whereas Camu-camu contains only 2 grams of vitamin C per 100 g of fruit.
