Tropical Health Foods (Formerly CR Natural,S.A.)

We are a familly-owned business devoted to the production of the finest quality wild Costa Rican carao fruit.  We are the world's first and only exporter of carao.  Since 2002 we have shipped it to customers all over the world.

Carao fruit is a natural food, generally mixed with milk to make a delicious beverage.  It is world-renowned for its health-giving properties, particularly as a natural blood builder.  Information and reports on carao fruit as a natural blood builder are found on the website http://anemiaanswer.com.  (Note that Tropical Health Foods makes no health claims for carao fruit., and sells the carao fruit product as a whole natural food, not a food supplement.)

The Product

Our carao fruit product is currently 100% wild-crafted, meaning it is produced by wild trees.  To our knowledge, no commercial plantings of carao trees exist anywhere in the world.

Our product is 100% pure carao fruit,  extracted from the large woody carao pods using spring water, which is then removed by a low temperature evaporation process.  In the near future we plan to publish detailed information on our production techniques, to stimulate the production of carao around the world.

This low temperature process, unique in Costa Rica (and as far as we know the world), produces the highest quality carao possible, indistinguishable in taste and (we believe) nutrition from carao fruit still in the pod.

Our production of carao is very limited due to the fact that only scattered wild trees exist.  We therefore may not able to provide the product to large distributors, although we welcome inquiries from potential distributors.  We do have a 30% wholesale discount on 10+ bottles (see our order form).
