Shea Butter Tree is truly the "Tree of Life"!


Almost all parts of the Shea Butter tree have some practical use.


BARK

The bark of the Shea Butter tree is an ingredient in traditional medicines against certain childhood illnesses and minor scrapes and cuts.


SHELL

The shell of the nuts can repel mosquitoes.


FRUIT

Above all, because it is completely non-toxic and gentle, the fruity part of the Shea Butter kernel, when crushed, yields a vegetable oil that can be used in soap-making, cooking, and skin and hair care.


We can clearly see now why this tree is called the "Tree of Life"!
