Phytolea™ Baobab EC
Baobab is a large iconic tree indigenous to Africa where it is found in many countries. Native to Africa and Madagascar, the baobab is the emblem of Senegal. Several names are used to describe the baobab such as “magic tree”, “chemist tree”, “symbol of the earth”, “upside-down tree” and “monkey bread of Africa” amongst numerous others.
Baobab products (e.g. fruits, seeds, leaves, bark) contribute to the livelihood of many populations in Africa as it is a source of food, fibre and medicine. More than a symbol, it is in Africa a valuable resource used for therapeutic, nutritional and traditional African pharmacopoeia. African women use baobab seed oil as a hair treatment on dry, brittle, damaged and sun-damaged hair.
