Goji berries have been long used in Chinese traditional medicine for supporting general health, and the liver specifically. Dried berries are a rich source of antioxidants that neutralize harmful free radicals, preventing premature aging and strengthening the immune system.
They are especially rich in beta-carotene, which can contribute to improved eyesight. Goji berries also contain vitamins B1, B2 and B6, vitamin E and vitamin C, as well as 11 essential minerals and 22 trace minerals. Polysaccharides represent up to 31% of dry weight and are a quality source of energy, while dietary fiber aids digestion and promotes weight loss.
