JOJOBA-

I am 62 Yo: resident of Tucson, Arizona, for the last teen years; I eat a cup full of JOJOBA, fresh seeds every month. I have never had any problem eating the nuts, or got ill; The JOJOBA, oil is help me to clear my system from THC, (more work need to be done) smoking Marijuana, and pass the drug test. Great nut to rost and add to my "Musle" (Granola) every morning: (10:00AM = Usre: Adam A Karu August/31/2010 )

Jojoba as an ingredient in cosmetics and toiletries

To be correct, entries regarding jojoba's specific use in cosmetics and toiletries should be posted on Jojoba oil or Jojoba esters instead of jojoba. Istvan 13:00, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

not really an oil

I remember reading somewhere that Jojoba oil isn't really an oil. Is this true? (Come to think of it, what makes something an oil, is it just something that is "oily", or does it have to do with some narrolwly defined properties or chemical structure?)Brentt 21:09, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oil has a pretty good definition. Stan 18:02, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Is Jojoba Edible?

So is any part of the plant at all edible?24.83.178.11 10:40, 16 May 2007 (UTC)BeeCier[reply]

Jojoba oil says it's edible but that it can't be digested, and will make humans sick. Badagnani (talk) 02:24, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jojoba seeds in the wild are edible and quite delicious. i am the son of Tom S. Janca who began bringing jojoba to commercial interest in the early 1970's in the US and around the world. I know I shipped seed and oil packets around the world as a child. I have actually eaten quite a few Jojoba seeds during harvest and while making oil and never took ill. T. R. Janca

Jojoba oil article

The head of this article should mention the related article about Jojoba_oil, but I don't know how to do that in the proper way. Anyone else? --95.88.31.146 (talk) 13:21, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

done. István (talk) 15:03, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
