Goji Berries: how much do you really know about this super fruit?
Posted:2014-06-12   Views:3231
Goji berry is the popular name of wolfberry, scientifically known as Lycium barbarum. It is a member of the nightshade family and is cultivated in the regions of China and Mongolia. Herbalists in ancient China used goji berries to protect the liver, improve sexual functions, fertility and to boost the immune system.



Goji berries are often found dried and look like shriveled red berries or red raisins. They are rich in beta carotene and zeaxanthin, anti-oxidants responsible for protecting the eyes and decreasing the risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of eye problems in people over 65.

In the field of alternative medicine, goji is used to treat hepatitis B because of the physalin found in the berries. It is also used to treat blood pressure, heart conditions, and even used as a memory enhancer. It possesses anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and even anti-inflammatory qualities and is used for the treatment of breast and cervical cancer.
