What is Baobab Superfruit?

Long treasured as the Tree of Life in many parts of the world, baobab provides nutrition, healing, and beauty, inside and out. It is the source of Wellbeing, which is literally the meaning of Ustawi.

Baobab is a cornerstone of Ustawi products, but many may still wonder- What IS it? It has fruit? Can you eat it? Why is it good for my skin?

If you follow natural health and holistic Wellbeing practices, you may already know that Baobab is a rich source of fiber and polyphenols which can aid digestive health, weight maintenance, and reduce Glycemic Response. The fruit is also high in calcium, vitamins, and minerals.

As a key ingredient in skincare, baobab is rich in micronutrients, minerals, and vitamins – it contains 10 times more than the Vitamin C content of an orange! For all of its benefits, we have incorporated baobab as a healing and protective ingredient in all our skincare.

Now, everyone’s skin can benefit from the life-giving powers of this gift from nature. For Ustawi, baobab is a vital ingredient – it is not simply an additive; it is a gateway to healing, providing protection and enhanced beauty for every skin type.
