Tibetan Goji Berries contain polysaccharides which fortify the immune system. A polysaccharide found in this fruit has been found to be a powerful secretagogue (a substance that stimulates the secretion of rejuvenative human growth hormone by the pituitary gland). This true miracle food is also packed with vitamins, proteins, antioxidants and essential amino acids.
Goji berries have been traditionally regarded as a longevity, strength-building, and sexual potency food of the highest order. Studies reveal that the Goji Berry improves immune function, sexual function, appetite and sleep patterns in the elderly.
The famed Li Qing Yuen, who apparently lived to the age of 252 years (1678-1930), consumed Goji berries daily. The life of Li Qing Yuen is the most well-documented case of extreme longevity known.
These Goji berries grow in protected valleys in million year old soil in wild and cultivated areas. The plants grow like bushes with vines that reach over 15 feet. The berries are never touched by hand as they will oxidize and turn black if touched while fresh. They are shaken onto mats, then dried in the shade. The Goji berry is a deep-red, dried fruit about the same size as a raisin and tastes somewhat like a cross between a cranberry and a cherry.
The Tibetan Medical College, the pre-eminent authority on Tibetan Medicine and the business partner of Tibet Authentic, recommends a daily serving of 5 grams (about 20 berries) is sufficient to gain the benefits available.
They may be used as snacks or mixed with recipes or smoothies like other dried fruits.
Goji Berries contain:
- 19 amino acids
- Protein (13%)
- 21 trace minerals, including germanium,
- Antioxidant carotenoids, including beta-carotene and zeaxanthin (protects the eyes)
- Vitamin C
- B-complex vitamins
- Vitamin E
- Beta-Sitosterol - an anti-inflammatory agent. Beta-Sitosterol also lowers cholesterol and has been used to treat sexual impotence and prostate enlargement.
- Essential fatty acids - which are required for the body’s production of hormones and for the smooth functioning of the brain and nervous system
- Cyperone - a sesquiterpene that benefits the heart and blood pressure, alleviates menstrual discomfort, and has been used in the treatment of cervical cancer
- Solavetivone - a powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial compound
- Betaine - which is used by the liver to produce choline, a compound that calms nervousness, enhances memory, promotes muscle growth, and protects against fatty liver disease
After opening, place in a sealed container and store below 30C.

WHAT IS GOJI?
Just how long is a life time? Would you believe the average woman in the Himalayan Hunza tribe lives to be 100? And that arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, sexual dysfunction and depression are totally unknown to them? Goji can shut down cell aging in six hours!
Their secret? The berry of the goji (pronounced Go-jee) vine. Never heard of it? You're not alone. Goji has just become available in the U.S. "No plant in all of Asian medicine even approaches the benefits of Goji," says pharmacist and nutrition researcher Earl Mindell, Ph.D., author of "Goji: The Himalayan Health Secret". Start sipping it today and you'll reap rewards like ...
ALL OVER CELL REJUVENATION
Goji is packed with anti-oxidants … powerful molecules that mop up free radicals before they can damage body cells. In Chinese trials, goji shut down cell aging in as little as six hours after the first dose! "The credit goes to goji's poly-saccharides," says Mindell. "They boost the body's production of human growth hormone, which helps build toned muscle and repair skin cells."
POWERFUL PROTECTION AGAINST GERMS
Experts say sipping 2 oz of goji juice daily for as little as three weeks dramatically improves your immune system's ability to fend off infections. How? Goji's amino acids and minerals trigger a 300% boost in white blood cell function and double production of infection-fighting proteins. "And goji's polysaccharides actually make viruses more visible to the immune cells that are trying to destroy them", says Mindell.
A RETURN TO PASSION
If you're one of the 60 Million American women who struggles with lack of desire, vaginal dryness, difficulty getting aroused, or another sexual snag, take note: studies in China show that more then one-third of women with sexual dysfunction can recover their desire in as little as three weeks just by sipping a few ounces of goji juice daily.
