Goji juice: Essence of the Himalayas

Goji juice: Essence of the Himalayas
By. Caren Jacobs

During the last few decades the health industry has boomed and
supposed wonder drugs are getting explored every now and then.
We have explored genetically modified crops, wholly organic
cultivation and ever improved health supplements. But there are a
few incredibly beneficial and completely natural ways of health
enhancement waiting to be explored.

Goji juice is one of the most notable among them. Offering the
unbelievable benefits of Lycium Barbarum berries, Goji juice is one
of the best kept secrets of the Himalayas. Though unknown to the
outside world, Goji has been held in esteem in the ancient wisdom
of China, India and Tibet. The natives had benefited from the
alkaline berry for over 3,000 years before its fame drew
researchers and medical practitioners from outside.

Goji juice is made from Goji berry which is also known as Chinese
Wolfberry or Tibetan Goji berry. Goji vines are grown in valleys of
Himalaya, Tibet, parts of China and Mongolia. The alkaline berry is
very tender and is locally known as ¡°happy berry¡± because of the
positive state it induces. The berry has also been used in
traditional Chinese medicine for many centuries now.

In China the berries are eaten raw, drunk as tea and is cooked
too. The natives consider Goji as a miracle drug but that depends
on what one means by miracle. However, scientific research has
proved that Goji is incredibly rich in vital elements that the human
body requires. Goji supplies the body with 19 amino acids including
eight essential ones, 21 trace minerals, Betaine, Physlin and high
amounts of vitamin B and E and fatty acids. Vitamin B is essential
for converting food into energy.

The berry is remarkable for providing elements that are normally
not found in fruits and berries. Vitamin E is one such element. Even
if they are the quantities are never so high. There is 11 mg of iron
per 100 gm of Goji berry. It also has a protein content which is
higher that of many cereals. Goji contains complex phytonutrients
and bio flavinoids. A full range of antioxidant carotenoids are
present in the berry. Antioxidants are instrumental in neutralizing
the free radical with the body and are thus essential to keeping
the body young and revitalized. The berry is also rich in
polysaccharides which are necessary for fortification of the immune
system.

The immense benefits of Goji berries are made widely available in
the form of Goji juice. While dried or dehydrated berries are also
available in the market, the benefits of Goji are best availed in the
form of juice. Goji juice is available either in pure form which can be
mixed with other natural juices according to taste or it comes pr-
mixed with other fruit juices to neutralize the mildly bitter taste.
However, post mixing it tastes great.

Goji juice is a completely natural way of enhancing health and
ensuring a continued sense of well being. However, one has to be
careful while selecting a brand of Goji juice as it is being
extensively marketed across the world as a miracle drug and that
has given rise to many fraudulent marketers. That is why you will
have to source it only from a well established and reputed
company.
