EA GREEN HANDS ENTERPRISE INTRODUCES NEW BAOBAB POWDER TO GHANA MARKET

What is Green Hands Baobab Powder

Baobab powder comes from the fruit of the baobab tree, which has been revered throughout Africa as “the Tree of Life” for centuries. Baobabs grow wild throughout Africa and despite this harsh environment can become massive—one of the largest known baobab trees is 98 feet tall and 36 feet in diameter! Baobab trees are resilient and magnificent living for up to 3,000 years, surviving in some of the world’s harshest climates by storing water in their trunks during the rainy season and concentrating essential nutrients for longevity in their leaves, bark, fruit, and seeds.

Baobab trees produce fruit pods that contain an incredibly nutrient dense powder and seeds. Baobab powder dries in the pod, is a peachy neutral color and requires minimal processing. Once the pulp is separated from the seeds it is milled and sieved. Baobab powder is considered a raw ingredient, it is as pure as it can get!  Baobab powder has a mild tangy flavor and is packed with vitamins and minerals. It is particularly rich in vitamin C,  B vitamins, potassium, magnesium, iron, calcium and fiber.

Baobab seeds are pressed and produce a rich golden oil used in skincare. Baobab oil provides a balance of omega 3,6 and 9 fatty acids that have benefits from head to toe, it is a good all over moisturizer especially great on damaged hair and the driest skin. 

The baobab tree is clearly remarkable, but what are the health benefits of baobab powder and why are they so potent?
