the problem is that the middle man always earns the most, the ones that do all the hard work earn less ;-( to preserve the nature and keep it local which is best for them and the environment, the international demand should be keeot minimal..... most products are produced hugely but end up in rubbish when they reach abroad and the locals are left harmed for no good reason.

In Uganda, the Shea trees grow more abundantly in the northern region. When I was in high school in the central region, an Acholi friend from the north used to bring a homemade appetizer made from Shea. He called it "moya". He described the tree from which the stuff was made but we had never heard of it. He loved that stuff. But it tasted awful to the rest of us, which was ok for him because it meant that he didn't have to share it with us.

West african Shea is firmer when working with it. I used it in the US many of times by mixing it with Mango butter and other oils to help it absorb better in the skin. However, eastern shea is good in its own way, but it is to soft for some application that I make. I do like it, but I do blend it with other butters like mango or murumuru to make the final product semi firm. Both sheas actually has their uses. I only find that, one absorbs quickly and the other doesn't. I like and make a product where it is going to asorb a tad bit quicly in the skin and keeps a very light hygrated hair.

Also she’s a teenager now and prone to teenage acne, and coconut oil doesn’t really work for her face where she’s been getting the worst of the eczema in recent years.

And that is why the African people are the most beautiful in the world! Although I'm a white woman born & raised in south Louisiana, I was blessed to have been raised by a beautiful Creole woman as the only white child (other than my 2 brothers) in a community of African American/ Creole people. She always told me "Baby black don't crack & that's a fact" & boy was she ever right! I miss the smells of Shea butter/ Coconut oil/ Softee/ Blue Magic/ Pink Moisturizer & more! My beautiful children are half African American/ Creole & I dreamed of them having that beautiful kinky coily hair as I was taught to do many beautiful African styles as a younger woman but they both have very thick wavy Caucasian hair... Still love it tho! This was such a great episode!

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state. “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.) Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.) Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894) The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666

@Business Insider how is it that you guys go make these documentaries about natives, their culture, practices and way of living, profit off of them, but NEVER include or HIGHLIGHT a link, website, payment information, etc.? It would be great to support these businesses so that they can continue to produce these fabulous products and make a living for themselves.

Thanks for uploading this content. I used to work part time in a store in UAE. A customer asked for a soap with Shea butter as main ingredient. But we had that particular brands papaya and lemon flavored soaps. And the customer showed us the photo of the Shea butter flavoured soap. We tried hard to get it and the efforts were in vain. It wasn't available in Amazon either at that time. Now i know why the hell that particular soap was damn hard to get.
