Garip görünümlü Baobab ağacı, insanların merakını uyandıran ve görkemli gövdesi üzerinde adeta kökleri ters yüz edilmiş bir görüntü veren ilginç bir ağaçtır.��Afrika kültürünün önemli bir parçası olan ağaca yerliler "lanetli ağaç" da demişlerdir. Pek çoğumuzun Küçük Prens ile tanıştığı, yeni nesilin ise Madagaskar çizgi filminden hatırlayabileceği Baobab ağacı 30 metreyi bulan boyu ile yaklaşık 3000 yıl yaşar. Bu görkemli ağaçları yakından görmek isterseniz doğru destinasyon Madagaskar olacaktır

This tree is called the baobab tree and it is native to Africa The fruit from the tree is where the oil comes from It has been used for centuries for medicinal and cosmetic properties. Pure baobab oil coagulates when it is cold just like coconut oil does in winter. Place it in warm water to liquify it, warm oil penetrates the 1st layer of the skin better. Baobab oil promotes collagen, reduces inflammation and hydrates dry skin. It’s also great for your hair and body too #baobaboil #baobabtree #o

African baobab leaves are valued for their nutritional and medicinal properties. But over-harvesting threatens the trees. An initiative is raising awareness and planting new seedlings. | DW Africa
