The value of a functional nutrition ingredient is shaped long before formulation or extraction begins. For Ziziphus jujuba, commonly known as red jujube, its story starts in ancient orchards and continues today through modern agricultural management, scientific research, and controlled sourcing practices.
At SINOFN, the development of jujube-derived cAMP ingredients is built on an integrated approach that connects history, science, and supply chain governance.
A Living Agricultural Heritage: Cangzhou Thread Jujube
Cangzhou, located in Hebei Province, is one of China’s most historically significant jujube-producing regions. Archaeological evidence and agricultural records trace jujube cultivation in this area back more than 4,000 years.
Among the many local varieties, Thread Jujube is recognized for:
Thin skin and compact flesh
Naturally high sugar content
Stable nutritional composition
Traditionally, jujube was consumed as a daily food rather than a short-term tonic, reflecting its reputation as a gentle and sustainable form of nourishment. This long history of continuous use laid the foundation for modern scientific investigation into its functional components.

Scientific Validation: Natural cAMP in Ziziphus jujuba
Modern analytical research revealed that Ziziphus jujuba contains exceptionally high levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) compared with most fruits and plant materials.
cAMP is a key intracellular signaling molecule involved in:
Energy metabolism regulation
Cellular response to physiological stress
Oxygen utilization and adaptation
Advances in extraction technology have made it possible to concentrate naturally occurring jujube cAMP while removing non-functional components such as pectin and surface waxes, improving stability and bioavailability.
This scientific validation bridges traditional dietary knowledge with contemporary nutrition science.
Controlled Sourcing: From Plantation to Processing
To ensure consistency and traceability, SINOFN has established its own Ziziphus jujuba plantations in Cangzhou. Direct involvement in cultivation allows for:
Selection of suitable jujube varieties
Standardized agricultural practices
Control over harvest timing and raw material quality
Beyond jujube, SINOFN applies the same channel management principles to other functional raw materials, including botanical and edible fungi ingredients such as snow mushroom. This approach reduces variability and strengthens upstream quality control.
In-House Ingredient Manufacturing Capability
Raw material quality must be preserved through processing.
SINOFN’s jujube raw materials are processed by its dedicated ingredient manufacturing entity:Cangzhou Enji Biological Products Co., Ltd.Official website: http://www.enjisw.cn/
Maintaining in-house processing capabilities supports:
Defined extraction parameters
Batch-to-batch consistency
Full traceability from plantation to ingredient
This vertically integrated structure strengthens supply chain reliability and supports documentation readiness for B2B customers and regulatory reviews.
Why Sourcing Transparency Matters to B2B Partners
For ingredient buyers, product developers, and quality teams, sourcing transparency is no longer optional. It directly impacts:
Functional consistency
Long-term supply stability
Audit and compliance readiness
Trust in cross-border cooperation
By aligning agricultural sourcing, scientific validation, and processing control, SINOFN’s jujube cAMP sourcing model reflects a mature, system-based approach to ingredient development.
