Shea Butter Processing
People in villages in Northern Ghana use shea butter for newly born babies. Shea butter mixed with warm water is often the first medicine the baby will drink. Shea butter is applied to the umbilical cord of a baby to heal the wound, and applied on the whole body of the baby to protect the skin from dryness, wounds, and diaper rash.
