How should I track Baobab powder?
Baobab powder is high in fiber. When tracking Baobab powder, weigh the edible portion โ after peeling, coring, or removing seeds. The part you throw away does not count, but it can make up 20โ40% of the total weight depending on the fruit. A systematic review (Whitton et al., Adv Nutr 2022) found that fruits are among the most commonly misestimated food groups. One more thing to watch: fresh and dried versions have very different calorie density. A handful of dried fruit can have the same calories as a whole bowl of fresh โ always double-check which form you are logging.
