IMMUNITY
Gut health and immunity

Baobab powder, derived from the fruit of the baobab tree, offers numerous health benefits, including boosting immunity, promoting digestive health, and providing anti oxidants.

Baobab is the exceptional superfruit of Africa’s ‘Tree of Life’. It is the only fruit in the world that dries naturally on the branch.

Rich source of vitamin C, which contributes to normal:
* Energy release
* Immune function
* Healthy, glowing skin
It is also almost 50% fibre (two thirds soluble and one third insoluble, making it a powerful prebiotic) and contains more antioxidants than any other whole fruit.
As it is a natural source of these nutrients, it is more bioavailable than manufactured vitamin supplements, meaning our bodies can absorb the nutrients more easily, ensuring a greater absorption.

Baobab powder supports gut health
The gut is home to trillions of microorganisms that help digest food, absorb nutrients, and make vitamins.Prebiotic fiber helps increase the growth of good bacteria. The benefits of a healthy gut microbiome extend beyond the digestive system, strengthening the immune function and cardiovascular, hormonal, and nervous system health.

May Aid Weight Loss by Promoting Feelings of Fullness
Some research has found that adding baobab to your diet may be beneficial if you’re looking to drop a few extra pounds.
It can help curb cravings and promote feelings of fullness, helping you eat less and lose weight.
One small study in 20 people showed that drinking a smoothie with 15 grams of baobab extract significantly reduced feelings of hunger

May Help Balance Blood Sugar Levels
Adding baobab to your diet may benefit blood sugar control.
In fact, one study found that baking baobab extract into white bread reduced the amount of rapidly-digested starch and slowed down the increase of blood sugar levels in the body

Antioxidant and Polyphenol Content May Reduce Inflammation
Baobab is packed with antioxidants and polyphenols, which are compounds that protect your cells from oxidative damage and reduce inflammation in your body.

High Fiber Content May Promote Digestive Health
Baobab is a good source of fiber, and powdered versions can contain up to 18% of the daily recommended value in just one tablespoon (10 grams)

Baobab contains more potassium than a banana
Baobab powder is an excellent source of potassium, 4 times the potassium of a banana. Along with sodium, potassium plays a role in maintaining the body’s fluid balance and muscle and kidney function. Every cell needs potassium; it regulates heartbeat, relaxes blood vessels, and promotes normal blood pressure. Potassium also prevents muscle cramping, is vital in the nervous system, and calms the mind
Baobab is a source of magnesium
Magnesium is involved in more than 600 reactions in the body! Magnesium regulates blood sugar, heart health, and brain function. For athletes, magnesium improves leg strength and improves performance. Magnesium deficiency increases the tendency to depression, anxiety, and sleep problems.
