7. Baobab and Weight Loss
Some research suggests that consuming baobab regularly may help with weight loss. A 2010 study found that taking 15 grams of baobab extract in a smoothie led to decreased appetite in test participants. The high amounts of fiber in baobab can also promote satiety thanks to fiber's ability to slow the progress of food through the digestive system. This promotes a feeling of being fuller for longer and may decrease daily calorie intake.
