Directions  Description Why choose goji berries? Goji berries are also known as wolfberries, which derives its name from "wolf- peach" i.e. the tomato - its larger botanical cousin. For at least 2000 years, goji berries have grown wild in China and used in food recipes and traditional Chinese medicine due to their high nutritional value. In fact, they are considered to be a “superfruit” because of they are rich in a variety of nutrients and phytochemicals, such as: • essential and trace minerals, such as calcium, selenium, potassium, iron and zinc • 18 kinds of amino acids • a range of vitamins, such as vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) and vitamin C  • polysaccharides • monosaccharides • unsaturated fatty acids (including the essential fatty acids linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid) • carotenoids (including beta-carotene and zeaxanthin) • and a number of phenols associated with antioxidant activity. Goji berries contain a very high concentration of antioxidants, which play an important role in our bodies to fight free radicals and maintain health. They also contain proteins, minerals and Omega oils, which are all essential for good health. Their reputation as a superfood has triggered scientific research about their potential health benefits, as well as systematic cultivation, commercialisation and now increasing export to the West.
