About the Goji Berry….
Goji berries (Lycium barbarum) are a type of fruit often used to boost health. Frequently consumed as a whole food, they’re said to enhance energy, stimulate the immune system, and stave off a host of health problems. Extracts of goji berries (and of the plant’s root bark) are also sold in dietary supplement form.
In addition, products containing a blend of juices sourced from goji berries and from fruits such as acai, noni, mangosteen, camu camu, maqui, and tart cherries are sometimes touted for their supposedly health-promoting effects.
Goji berries grow on an evergreen shrub found in temperate and subtropical regions in China, Mongolia, and the Tibetan Himalayas. They contain compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and have long been used in traditional Chinese medicine.
