Nature’s Superfoods’ Organic Goji Berries are supersized, and specially selected for its natural sweetness and chewy texture as a healthy snack. They are organically grown in the pristine, high-altitude Tibetan Plateau. The isolation of the plateau, known to be free from pollution and gifted with lots of sun, crystal clear waters (from melted snow) and clean air quality, provide the perfect uncontaminated environmental conditions for growing these wonderful Goji berries. These Goji berries are sun-dried which lends a different quality of sweetness and texture to the berries, unlike the more commonly available dried goji berries which are machine-dried and are usually too dry to be eaten as a snack.
GOJI: One of the most nutritionally-rich foods, Goji Berries contain lots of carotenoids- beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, lutein, β-crytoxanthin, and lycopene, at least 6 vitamins (C, B1,B2,B3,B6,E), over 30 essential and trace elements (unheard of in any fruit), polyphenolic antioxidants and 19 amino acids. Additionally they also contain calcium, copper, germanium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, selenium, and zinc. Goji berries are also known for unique polysaccharides called Lycium barbarumpolysaccharides which strengthen the immune system.
Known as the Longevity Fruit, Goji Berries have been highly prized and used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for thousands of centuries. TCM considers these berries to have the ability to maintain the function of eyes, nourish the liver and kidney and help moisten the lungs.
