Lycium barbarum

December 11th, 2008

Lycium barbarum or the goji berry is usually found in Asia, particularly in China. It has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. They have used it because they discovered its health promoting properties. Chinese doctors combined them with other herbs, medicinal plants and flowers to make cures for various illnesses. They prepared them as soup tonics, tea and even wine.

It took some time for the western world to find out that the fruit is rich in antioxidants. It is packed with vitamins, minerals and beta carotene. Calcium, potassium, iron, and even zinc are also present. This berry has been considered a super fruit because of all the nutrients it contains. It has been made into a juice that can be taken daily as a food supplement. You can combine taking the juice with a healthy diet and exercise to benefit from it greatly
