    All across Africa stands a tree which produces the fruit called Baobab fruit. Now being called the "superfruit".  From the tree of life as they call it.

     

     

    They say every part of the tree is being used. The monkey bread is eaten if you have a stomach ache, if your tired, you eat the leaves. The seeds are extracted for oil and cooking purposes, along with the bark used for making rope.

     

     

    Some of the vitamins produced by the tree are C, B1,B2, Calcium chocked full of anti_oxidants.

     

     

    Many rural people are starting business' going to markets and shipping it to European markets.
