The goji berry is a kind of small bright
orange-red berry, also known as wolf berry, mainly grows in The Himalayas,
Tibet and China. It comes from a shrub that’s native to China. The name ‘Goji’
comes from its Tibetan origin. Throughout Asia, goji berries have been eaten
for generations in the hopes of living longer. Antioxidants in the gojis also
help people look younger even in the old age. Nowadays goji berries have gained
international popularity beyond its Tibetan origin. Over time, goji berries are
used tried to treat numerous common health problems like fever, diabetes,
age-related eye problems, and high blood pressure. Goji berries are consumed
raw, cooked or dried (like raisins) and are used in juices, wines, teas, and
medicines.
Research shows that eating berries like acai
berries, blueberries, cranberries, strawberries, and cherries provide definite
health benefits. And goji berries are enriched with antioxidants, especially
carotenoids such as zeaxanthin and beta-carotene. These antioxidants are
helpful for keeping strong and healthy. Zeaxanthin protects the retina of our
eyes by absorbing blue light and acting as an antioxidant. Moreover, increased
intake of foods containing zeaxanthin reduces the probability of developing
age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is the cause of eye-sight loss
and blindness in people over the age of 65. Goji Berries are also abundant with
compounds rich in vitamin A. They are highly effective for the following health
purposes:
