A hot new trend...baobab. Native to tropical regions in Africa, the baobab tree is anything but new. This vitamin and mineral-rich tree produces fruits that have been harvested by African tribes for centuries for health purposes. One teaspoon of baobab powder provides 136 mg of vitamin C, which is more vitamin C than one orange (about 100 mg).

It's such a well-rounded superfruit. Other nutrients in baobab include: antioxidants, potassium, magnesium and calcium. The baobab fruit also contains 50% dietary fiber, which research has shown to be prebiotic in nature. This is great news for gut health. 

I think baobab + a smoothie bowl is the perfect mash up!
