[6] On the nearby Îles des Madeleines Adanson found another baobab, 3.8 m in diameter, which bore the carvings of passing mariners on its trunk dated as early as the 1444. (...) Adanson concluded that the baobab, of all the trees he studied, >>is probably the most useful tree in all.<< He consumed baobab juice twice a day, while in Africa. He remained convinced that it maintained his health for him.[7]https://nbfeartist.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/adansonia_digitata_baobab_tree_in_hyderabad_w_img_8271.jpgAdansonia_digitata_(Baobab_Tree)_in_Hyderabad_W_IMG_8271'>>Digitata<< refers to the digits of the hand.
