Goji Berry

Goji berries come from a type of woody perennial shrub with the botanical name Lycium Chinense, of the Solanaceae family, which reaches a height of up to 3 meters. The fruits of the plant are used in traditional Chinese medicine as a mild tonic and for the good functioning of the liver, kidneys and lungs. Today Goji berries are an excellent source of nutrients, rich in vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Their consumption increases the body's energy levels, enhances the production of growth hormone resulting in the slowing down of tissue aging, improves and protects eyesight and stimulates sexuality. Goji berries are among the so-called superfoods and are consumed either fresh or dried, without any nutritional difference, since when goji berries are dried, only their water content is affected and all their other nutrients remain intact. Their daily consumption is considered safe and it is recommended to take 5 grams per day. People with diabetes and high blood pressure should consult their doctor before consuming goji berries.
