The Wonders of Goji Juice

Were you aware that many of the longest living folks around happen to eat regular servings of a relatively small fruit which is considered by some researchers to be the most powerful anti-aging food known? For this reason it is legendary in Asia, where it is traditionally associated with longevity, while modern research verifies that there may be no berry which is higher in antioxidants than the wolf berry from which goji juice is made.

In fact this juice features 4 individual polysaccharides (these are important phytonutrient compounds) which happen to run and monitor some of the body's main defense systems.

As a matter of fact, many published research studies have verified the fact that these polysaccharides are the single most essential bioactive parts of the said berry. These polysaccharides are true Master Molecule's and are not found in any other plant on the planet. Some researchers such as Dr. Earl Mendell consider Goji Juice to be a superior health alternative than simply eating the berry, since the quality of mainstream available dehydrated goji berries may vary substantially, and there is also the strong possibility that the polysaccharides in the dried berries have already oxidized and degraded by the time you eat them. Liquid form also adds versatility in preparation.

More of Dr. Mendell's research on this topic can be found at The Himalayan Goji Juice Planet and there you will find a plethera of research studies. If you decide to eat the dried berry by itself, know that there is more than one type of goji berry. In fact, just as there are number of different kinds of grapes used in wine, there is a plethera of goji varieties. We are talking more than forty species of it growing in Tibet region of China alone! The goji berry is sometimes referred to as the wolf berry.
