The harmony between the rainforest and human life is achieved with the Amazonian fruits

To live in balance with the Amazon, we must interact wisely with the ecosystem, respecting the equilibrium that each species (fauna and flora) has reached with this environment. 

Achieving this is not easy, but Amazonian fruits can be the key to accomplish it. They make it possible to care for the ecosystem. At the same time, they serve as an economic alternative for those who live in the Amazon.

For example, the copoazú is a fruit in high demand because of the diversity of ways in which it can be used. This fruit can be planted on the borders of the land, acting as a natural border that keeps animals away from human lands since it contains theobromine, a compound that some species avoid.

In the same way, Camu Camu is the ideal economic alternative for people living in flood lands. It is one of the few plants that can grow in flood-prone areas. In addition, Camu Camu helps the proliferation of fish in periods of flooding, since it is a great food for them.

These examples show that we can live and have sustenance in the jungle. However, it is necessary that we integrate ourselves in it, make use of the amazonian fruits and become supporters of its equilibrium.
