Traditional Aboriginal food from Australia’s Northern Territory
This precious, real food supplement is sustainably hand-harvested from Australia’s Northern Territory — home to the world’s oldest cultures, the indigenous Aboriginal Australians, who have used the fruit to support robust health for thousands of years.*

Pure & crafted to retain as much vitamin C as possible
Like all Smidge® supplements, our Kakadu Plum is as pure as can be. It's made entirely from the fresh puree of the fruit, which is dehydrated with a gentle drying technique called refractance window drying — a unique method that uses infrared light, rather than high heat, to remove water from food. This method is unmatched in preserving the fruit's natural vitamin C. It also enables your body to absorb and use the vitamin C, rather than excreting large amounts shortly after consuming the harsh, synthetic stuff (leaving you with inflammation in the gut or urinary tract).*

No common allergens, fillers — or ascorbic acid
Free of common allergens, additives and fillers, our Kakadu Plum capsules are easy on those with sensitive digestive systems and fit right in with many dietary protocols.
You also won't find added ascorbic acid, the synthetic form of vitamin C in most commercial supplements (even “food-based)”, that can cause nutrient imbalances and negative side effects.*
Here's the rub with ascorbic acid… Most "food-based" vitamin C supplements are fortified with ascorbic acid, even though it's not listed on the label. For example, you can purchase raw material, such as acerola powder, that’s "standardized" to a certain vitamin C percentage. During production, heat destroys some (or most) of the vitamin C in the acerola powder and ascorbic acid is added to standardize the vitamin C levels. A supplement company may unwittingly buy "all-natural acerola powder" and not realize (or disclose) that up to 100% of the vitamin C is actually fortified ascorbic acid.*

More precious, naturally-occurring nutrients
Kakadu plum contains phytonutrients like ellagic acid, which has antioxidant and antimicrobial capacities, to support cells.* They also contain many antioxidants, including quercetin, flavonols, aromatic acids, anthocyanin and lutein. Antioxidants may protect against the effects of free radicals.* To put the amount into perspective, Kakadu plum contains six times the number of polyphenols and almost 13 times more antioxidant activity than blueberries!*
Plus, Kakadu plum has copper and iron, which are used to form red blood cells, bones, connective tissue, enzymes, as well as support fetal development and the immune system.* These minerals help transport oxygen throughout the body and red blood cell production.*
Other nutrients in Kakadu plum include flavonols, aromatic acids, anthocyanins and lutein.*

Sustainability
We work hand-in-hand with an Australian partner to supply Smidge® Kakadu Plum to you and your families. In this regard, supporting and honoring local communities and groups is imperative. This includes the indigenous Aboriginal communities of the Larrakia and Djerimanga through our operations, with whom we’re honored to work with during harvesting and production.
We respect the traditional owners of the lands where we harvest the Kakadu plums. And, we promote responsible and sustainable operations so that native Australian flora and fauna can exist for generations to come.
Further, we only pick approved fruit to ensure the native plants have room to grow each season. We also ensure that any harvest by-products are used to support the area’s wildlife.
What is in Smidge® Kakadu Plum?

Natural vitamin C from Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) powder
This amazing, cherry-sized fruit grows abundantly on the tall Kakadu tree in Northern and Western Australia. It has a thick skin and a small nut at its center (we make your supplement from the freshly-picked fruit's flesh). Unlike traditional plums, the taste is tart, not sweet.
In every Kakadu Plum capsule, you'll find heaps of naturally occurring vitamin C, a vital nutrient for robust health. Vitamin C is water-soluble and occurs naturally in some foods, helping form and maintain bones, skin and blood vessels; supporting immunity and shielding cells from free radicals.*

Vegetarian capsule
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), water. Our vegetable (vegan) capsules consist of only two ingredients: HPMC and purified water. HPMC is derived from vegetable cellulose of either pine or poplar. 100% natural, these capsules contain no preservatives, no gelatin, wheat, animal by-products or starch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it is organic! Because it is harvested and grown in Australia, our Kakadu does not have the USDA organic certification. Rather, Smidge® Kakadu Plum is Australian Certified Organic, a designation given by an independent body in Australia.
Absolutely not. Ascorbic acid is the synthetic version of vitamin C. Smidge® Kakadu Plum capsules contain only the naturally occurring vitamin C in the fruit, and nothing else.
Producers of powdered fruits high in vitamin C often use various production methods that can result in vitamin C degradation. Then, they add ascorbic acid to the final product.*
At Smidge®, we chose to provide a real food vitamin C supplement that avoids ascorbic acid at all costs. This is because ascorbic acid is usually derived from GMO corn and can cause health issues, such as blocking the absorption of enzymes and nutrients and toxic build-up.*
Most sources equate vitamin C with ascorbic acid, as though they were the same thing. They're not. Here's how to understand the difference:
Ascorbic acid is an isolate, a fraction, a distillate of naturally occurring vitamin C.
In addition to ascorbic acid, vitamin C must include rutin, bioflavonoids, K-factor, J-factor, P-factor, tyrosinase, ascorbinogen and other components. Plus, mineral co-factors must be available in proper amounts.
If any of these parts are missing, there is no vitamin C and no vitamin activity. In all, you need the whole food to receive the full vitamin, and thus, all the benefits it yields.
The vitamin C in Smidge® Kakadu Plum supplement beats all the rest.
On average, the Kakadu Plum has:
- Over 100 times the amount of vitamin C than oranges.
- And over five times the amount of antioxidants than blueberries.
It's the highest source of naturally occurring vitamin C from any food in the world! One serving of two little capsules contains nearly 75% your daily value of vitamin C. But please note that the vitamin C levels will vary, since this is a fresh, natural supplement made from real food!
Adults can reach their recommended daily allowance by eating fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C. For example, half a cup of steamed broccoli and half a cup of freshly sliced strawberries equals 100 mg of vitamin C. But many health-conscious folks desire more, whether on dietary protocols, working to support immunity or not getting enough through diet.
The right amount for you depends on your specific health goals; your healthcare provider can help you determine the proper dosage. Vitamin C is water-soluble, meaning it is carried to your body's tissues but not absorbed, as it dissolves in water. So your body does not store any excess.
Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) is a small, wild-growing deciduous tree found extensively throughout the subtropical woodlands of northern and western Australia. It has broad leaves and bears an abundant crop of small plum-like fruits with the highest amount of vitamin C in any food in the world! The trees typically bear fruit annually in May, the start of the dry season.
This dynamic fruit is about the size of a cherry. The Kakadu plum has thick skin and a small nut in its center. It's tart-tasting, not sweet like the purple plums we sink our teeth into here in the U.S.
For thousands of years, the indigenous Aboriginal peoples of Australia have used the Kakadu plum.* The sap and bark were used to treat skin conditions and make tea for common colds.* Now, Smidge® brings this little-known, ancient superfood home to you.
As the Kakadu plum is native to Australia, ours is grown, harvested and produced in Australia!
It is a unique, self-limiting dehydration method that uses infrared light, rather than direct temperature extremes, to remove water from food.
Relying on water's conductivity with infrared properties and the refraction of light, this is the preferred method for preserving the precious nutrients and phytonutrients found in whole foods. In this process, the fresh, whole food's essential sensory qualities, such as color, aroma, taste, and nutritional value, are retained.
This indicates that the active aromatic and pigment compounds that impart sensory and nutritionally invaluable properties have been preserved throughout the drying process. And it means your Smidge® Kakadu Plum capsules retain the most natural vitamin C possible. As mentioned above, it also enables your body to absorb and use the vitamin C, rather than excreting large amounts shortly after consuming the harsh, synthetic stuff (leaving you with inflammation in the gut or urinary tract).
Yes, and if you do, your body will tell you. If you consume too much vitamin C, you may experience digestive upset symptoms, such as gas and diarrhea. Just back down on your dosage until the symptoms resolve.
