Baobab powder is your GLP -1 companion
Baobab powder is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that increases GLP-1 production, which is critical for glucose metabolism and weight loss.
GLP-1 is a peptide hormone produced in the gut that positively influences receptors throughout the body including the brain, heart, kidneys, and immune system.
Baobab powder increases gut bacteria which produce the Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA’s) butyrate, acetate, and propionate which stimulate the secretion of the GLP-1 hormone.
Preserving Biodiversity and promoting Social Good
KAIBAE was inspired by the mighty Baobab tree. Once considered a lost crop™ the Baobab harvest now provides a critical source of income for our partnering communities in northern Ghana. Climate change, soil erosion, and disrupted rain patterns have resulted in lower agricultural yields, while an NTFP (Non-Timber Forest Project) such as KAIBAE’s provides a renewed and regenerative source of income. The KAIBAE harvest improves access to food, education, and healthcare and is now the #1 source of annual income for our community partners.
