World Well-Being/Plant Extract/Saponins 2%-50%/Seed of Wild Jujube Extract/Spina Date Seed Extract

Jujube is a date-like fruit that grows on the Ziziphus jujuba tree. This deciduous tree has multiple varieties and is native to temperate areas throughout Asia. Other common names for jujube include red date, Chinese jujube, or Chinese date.

Both the fruit and the seeds of jujube are used for their various health benefits. Jujube seeds have a sedative effect on the body that has been shown to promote sleep. The dried fruit is commonly used to support a healthy gastrointestinal tract and protect the nervous system. Modern research shows that jujube fruit also has anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and anti-anemic effects. These various health benefits are attributed to the jujubosides, flavonoids, terpenes, and saponins - phytochemicals present in jujubes.
