Wolfberry

Wolfberry

Although the wolfberry’s (also the goji berry) original habitat is unknown, researchers believe its origins are southeastern Europe or southwest Asia. China is the country that produces the berry the most. The berry contains lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) which helps the berry protect and repair cellular DNA. The berry is also an excellent source of 18 amino acids and 21 trace minerals. Like the acai berry, it helps with sexual health, a natural viagra, if you will.

Some nutritional benefits of goji berry are:

• LBP
• Vitamins
• Amino Acids
• Minerals

The berry can help with:

• Damaged DNA
• Sexual Dysfunction

In 2006, the World Journal of Gastroenterology suggested that extracts from the berry help prevent the proliferation and induce the self-destruct mechanism (apoptosis) of certain types of liver cancer cells.
