Baobab promotes digestive health because it is rich in both soluble and insoluble fiber. In fact, some baobab powders are nearly 50% fiber. Soluble fiber helps soak up water in the gut and reduce levels of harmful cholesterol. Insoluble fiber helps food move through the gut more easily, keeping the bowels in good condition and preventing common digestive problems.
