Shea Nut and the Shellfish Free Diet
Shea nuts are the seeds of the fruit from the shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa), which is native to Africa. These seeds are harvested and processed to produce shea butter, a popular ingredient in cosmetics and food products. While the shea nut itself is rarely consumed directly, the shea butter extracted from it is widely used for its moisturizing properties and as a cooking fat in some regions.
