Baobab & Blueberry Smoothie - Recipe

Baobab is ‘The Feel Good Fruit’. Baobab has one of the highest antioxidant levels in the world, and the highest among all its fruity friends. Antioxidants are incredibly anti-inflammatory and fight disease inducing free radicals in our body. Meaning they're incredibly anti cancerous! Combined with the added benefits of blueberries, you’ve got yourself a nutrient packed treat!

Aduna Baobab Superfruit Powder is a 100% natural, nutrient-dense, raw wholefood. It is also almost 50% fibre and a rich source of vitamin C, calcium, potassium and thiamin. There is no such thing as a baobab plantation; every tree is community-owned and wild harvested.

This recipe by Saskia Gregson-Williams (Naturally Sassy) shared with us via Aduna’s blog is the easy and tasty way to incorporate baobab into your diet. Blueberries are one of her favourite fruits and go incredibly well with baobab. 

Ingredients:

1 tsp Aduna Baobab Superfruit Powder

1 banana

1 cup blueberries

2 medjool dates

1 cup almond milk

Method: Just blend!

Health, Beauty & Social Responsibility

Aduna is an Africa-inspired health and beauty brand and social business. Aduna's products feature extraordinary and unique natural ingredients from across the continent. Here we catch up with co-founder Andrew Hunt. 

Aduna means ‘life’ or ‘world’ in Wolof – what one thing can’t you live without in your daily life?

The most important thing for me by far is to wake up every morning and be inspired about what I am doing with my life. As long as I have this, then the rest slots easily into place. And thankfully with Aduna, inspiration is never in short supply. 

How often do you get to go back and visit the African communities that Aduna work with?

Not enough. Ironically, since co-founding Aduna I have spent less time in Africa than ever before. However this year I have already been to Africa twice, which is amazing. When I arrive there I am often feeling like an iPhone on low battery, but after a week of being plugged back in, I come home fully charged.
