Jojoba plant (Simmondsia Chinensis) has been used for thousands of years by Native Americans. Jojoba was used as a food source and the oil from its seeds used in traditional cosmetics and medicines.
Jojoba oil is a natural mimic of the oil (sebum) that our skin secretes as a lubricant and is an important additive to many quality skin and hair care products today. To create purified Jojoba ester, Jojoba seeds are pressed and the oil separated from the seed’s skin. The oil is sold for commercial use and the residue, high protein jojoba skin, was originally just thrown away.
About 30 years ago a farmer had a great idea of using the protein rich jojoba pulp to feed cattle. He assumed it would easily fatten up his livestock. Surprisingly just the opposite happened and the cows began to lose weight. The jojoba pulp seed was no longer put into the cattle feed and soon pulled off the market
For decades, universities, private corporations and governmental institutions around the world have researched the weight loss phenomenon of the jojoba pulp. In the late 1990’s Chromadex began to study the properties of the Jojoba seed and identify the components responsible for the cattle’s weight loss.
Chromadex, Inc. is the leading supplier of phytochemical reference standards, consulting services and toxicity screening for products in the nutraceutical and dietary supplement industries. They discovered that a component in the Jojoba seed, called Simmondsin, was a natural appetite suppressant in every mammal they investigated.
A proprietary manufacturing process for making the Simmondsin extract was developed. After animal and human studies (including human tissue work), the Jojoba extract was found to have no known negative side effects. The patent application for this process was approved in early 2005. ProJoba International became the first company in the world to market this unique Jojoba extract in its neo-nutritional product line.

"Big Tech and mainstream media are constantly trying to silence the independent voices that dare to bring you the truth about toxic food ingredients, dangerous medications and the failed, fraudulent science of the profit-driven medical establishment.
Email is one of the best ways to make sure you stay informed, without the censorship of the tech giants (Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.). Stay informed and you'll even likely learn information that may help save your own life."
