12369 Simmondsia chinensis – Jojoba

Description

The jojoba bush is considered to be a plant with enormous potential. It may even replace oil. The oil of its capsules (the well-known jojoba oil) is used in the wellness sector (cosmetics). It is used in medicine as a “slimming aid” in the form of a culinary oil, as it is not digested in human intestines. The jojoba grows bushy and produces 1 to 2 cm lengthy, bluish-green leathery leaves.
