By tradition, Buriti is considered a delicious dressing oil.
It is mostly used for rice and salads. It can also be added into a smoothie or simply consume on a teaspoon as a diet supplement.
β-carotene is a unique vegan source of vitamin A.
Vitamin A is known in two primary forms:
Conversion occurs mostly in the liver, and therefore beta-carotene is often taken as a dietary supplement.
Additionally, Amazon women believe that the buriti fruit maintains the balance of the female hormone estrogen, emphasizes female curves, regulates menopause, and bestows fertility.
Although in local life buriti is used for both cosmetic and nutrition purposes, it’s still quite exotic and unknown to the European market and therefore on sale just as a skincare oil.
Scientist and explorer Alexander Von Humboldt called the buriti palm a “tree of life” because of its widespread use in Native American life.
Locals often cut down palm trees despite the fact that the main product is not wood itself !
Buriti harvesting strategies are unsustainable from an environmental and economic point of view. Mayantu is taking active measures to counteract this destructive practice. We do NOT cut down trees. We do NOT create plantations.
