Shea Butter or shea nut butter is an ivory colour natural fat extracted from the fruit of Karite Nut Tree, (also called the Magnifolia Tree). The karite tree lives for a few hundred years and produces its first fruit from the age of  20 –25 years. This tree grows to a length of 15-20 meters and only blooms from June to July. The fruits resemble large plums, which fall to the ground when ripe. Each fruit contains a nut with a hard white kernel, which is the source of the shea butter. Small fruit bats pollinate the karite trees, which helps continue the trees existence.

The karite tree grows naturally in the savannah of West Africa. It grows in 19 countries across the African continent. In Ghana, Sudan, Zaire, Ethiopia, Benin, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Mali, Niger, Togo, Uganda, Guinea, Cote d'Iviore, Guinea Bissau and Chad.

The African women walk long distances to gather the fruit and are also responsible for the production of the shea butter. Production is a long and laborious task. The shea nuts are first dried in the sun, then the nuts are cracked open by hand pounding. After opening the nuts are boiled to release the shea butter. Once released the fluid is kneaded to transform it into an ivory coloured paste known as shea butter. This is then poured into containers ready for exporting.

Shea Butter is valuable natural resource to the rural communites of West Africa. Each year tonnes of shea butter is exported around the world. The production and exportation of shea butter not only provides these communites with fresh water, medical treatment, housing and schooliing but, also strengthens their economic future.

Shea butter is one of the most affective natural moisturises. It is used in soaps, balms, creams, lotions and hair conditioners (adds and maintains moisture in dry brittle hair giving it a softer appearance). Shea butter absorbs rapidly into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling. Shea butter is also rich in vitamins A and E. (Vitamin A promotes enzyme activity in the skin, thickens the epidermis and helps skin cells reguvenate in a healthier way. Vitamin E is a natural anti-oxidant that slows down the signs of ageing and the degeneration of skin cells. Reduces fine lines and wrinkles and soothes the irritaion of dry skin).

Shea butter also has remarkable healing qualities. It is known to be effective in the treatment of scars, wrinkles, very dry skin, stretchmarks, eczema, chapped lips, rashes, acne, blemishes and fading scars. This natural ingredient also contains cinnamic acid, which provides natural protection against the sun's damaging ultraviolet rays.

Vegan Vitamin D 800Iu 90 Tab: HF $5.75 Doctors have recently found that the majority of those who live in cool climates -whether omnivore, vegetarian or vegan- are vitamin D deficient. All this is in spite of the fact that some fish contain vitamin D and milk, cheese and ice cream are fortified with Vitamin D for those who follow an omnivore or vegetarian diet. For vegans rules are the same. People who do not get adequate sun exposure or Vitamin D fortified foods are at the risk of developing Vitamin D deficiency unless they supplement.* Vitamin D deficiency classically causes rickets and osteomalacia (thin bones) and is more common in children who are vitamin D deficient. Prolonged breastfeeding is a cause of rickets in some children who don’t get enough vitamin D in their breast milk. Excessive use of sunscreens can cause vitamin D deficiency. In adults, vitamin D deficiency can cause bone weakness and boney pain.* Those who are especially encouraged to supplement with vegan vitamin D include those greater than age 50 that are at increased risk of developing vitamin D deficiency. People with limited sun exposure should also consider supplementation, especially if they are homebound and live in Northern Latitudes. People with dark skin don’t get enough Vitamin D in their system. Those with fat malabsorption need to be supplemented with vitamin D and other fat soluble vitamins. Those who are obese and have a BMI greater than 30 often are vitamin D deficient and should supplement with vitamin D.* Vitamin D is used to support those with osteoporosis, those with fragile bones and an increased risk of bone fractures. Insufficient vitamin D can contribute to osteoporosis by reducing calcium absorption. Vitamin D also plays a role in cancer prevention, especially in colon, prostate and breast cancers. The data are strongest for breast and prostate cancer.* Vitamin D might play a role in preventing type I and type II diabetes, high blood pressure, glucose intolerance and multiple sclerosis. There have been many research studies supporting these ideas. In fact, a recent study showed that vitamin D supplementation is associated with a reduction in death from any cause by 7 percent.* The recommended dose is 800 IU per day, although doses up to 3000 mg/day have been taken by some individuals with known deficiency.* DEVA Vitamin D is 100% animal free, and guaranteed for purity, freshness and labeled potency. Remember all DEVA Products are 100% vegan, vegetarian and are certified by the Vegan Society, the non-profit organization that actually invented the word "vegan".
