Baobab fruit is one of Australia's most ancient botanical icons, found exclusively in the Kimberley region of Western Australia and parts of the Northern Territory. These extraordinary trees can live for more than 1,500 years. First Nations, particularly Kimberley peoples have relied on Baobab for thousands of years as a food source, with the fruit pulp providing Vitamin C, calcium, potassium,
magnesium, and antioxidants.

Why it's used in the Beauty & Wellbeing Blend

As a classified food ingredient, Baobab fruit powder contributes Vitamin C, fibre, and a broad range of antioxidants to the Beauty & Wellbeing Blend. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and helps protect cells from oxidative stress. It also contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin. These are recognised nutrient function claims under FSANZ food standards.
