in Food and Nutrition
My FB is currently covered in posts about how wonderful Zija is, I don't want to ask the people posting the stuff because I know they will try to sell me the stuff and I have no interest in actually taking it but I am curious to know what it actually is and how it works, with most of this stuff, south beach, green tea, etc I've at least heard of it before and have seen people lose then regain etc but this seems like it's something new?

    Seems like there is no evidence of benefits in humans and it may be a scheme.

    It's a drink that is made out of Moringa, which is supposedly a very nutrient dense plant. It also seems that it can only be purchased via pyramid scheme, which is a bad sign for its actual nutritional value, in my opinion...

    Thanks! That was kind of my thinking, thus the reason I didn't want to ask one of the 10 people on my FB list currently pushing the stuff about it but I also know that sometimes (rarely) the gimicky things are good so thought I should at least find out what it is before I start judging.

    The moringa tree is grown in southeast Asia and Africa as a source of food but this is a tree with lots of other benefits and Moringa is one of nature's most potent superfoods and also best to lose weight.

    Totally not a scam! Even if you take it as your vitamins, its proven to help and be helpfulin many aspects of bettering health. I take it daily and its great! There are a variety of products but none of it is garbage!
