The delicate berries of the Goji plant (Lycium Barbarum) have been treasured for centuries by the Himalayan people. These berries flourish in the tranquil valleys that are naturally protected by the Majestic Himalayan Mountains. The nutrient rich soil and the fresh mountain air guarantee nearly perfect conditions for the plant to blossom.
Until recently little has been known in the western world about the Goji fruit and the many health benefits that this little red miracle berry has to offer.
Goji berries are packed full of vitamins, polysaccarides, proteins, anti-oxidants and essential amino acids. They have more vitamin C than oranges (by weight), the highest antioxidant carotenoids levels (beta-carotene), 21 trace minerals, 19 different amino acids, vitamins B1, B2, B6, E, and four unique polysaccharides which regulate the functioning of the human body. The polysaccharides are key to Goji's powerful, varied, postitive health effect on the body. These molecules make Goji Juice one of the world's most powerful nutritional foods.
