What is Goji Juice?

Just how long is a life time? Would you believe the average woman in the Himalayan Hunza tribe lives to be 100? And that arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, sexual dysfunction and depression are totally unknown to them? The people of the Hunza valley have been well known and studied for decades but only recently has one of the crucial factors in their vibrant health and wellbeing been discovered.

They are one of a small handful of peoples that share the common traits of long life, excellent health, vitality and wellbeing.

Their secret? Besides clean air, fresh food, pure water and a lifestyle free from many of the stresses that are normal in our society, they all consume regular portions of a particular small red fruit - The berry of the Goji vine (pronounced Go-jee) . Never heard of it? You're not alone. Goji juice has just recently become available as a standardized commercial product in Australia. "No plant in all of Asian medicine even approaches the benefits of Goji," says pharmacist and nutrition researcher Dr. Earl Mindell, Ph.D., author of over 50 nutritional bestsellers including “The Vitamin Bible” and "Goji: The Himalayan Health Secret". Start sipping it today and you'll reap more than 30 benefits to date that have been scientifically researched…for example

Goji is packed with anti-oxidants … powerful molecules that mop up free radicals before they can damage body cells. In Chinese trials, goji effected cell aging in as little as six hours after the first dose! "The credit goes to goji's poly-saccharides," says Mindell. "They boost the body's production of human growth hormone, which helps build toned muscle and repair skin cells." Makes you feel and look younger.

Sipping 2 oz of goji juice daily for as little as three weeks dramatically improves your immune system's ability to fend off infections. How? Goji's amino acids and minerals trigger a Large boost in white blood cell function and double the production of infection-fighting proteins. "And goji's polysaccharides actually make viruses more visible to the immune cells that are trying to destroy them", says Dr.Mindell.

Goji contains L-Tryptophan – an essential amino acid and totally natural ingredient for getting to, and sleeping well. Also alleviating anxiety and stress.

Weight Loss (if needed)

Goji’s effect on the metabolism promotes weight loss and the building of lean body tissue.

Etc, etc….. To date more than 34 scientifically valdated benefits of regular consumption of goji have been recorded.

Goji berries, sometimes called wolfberries, are perhaps the most nutritionally dense food on the planet. Goji berries contain 19 kinds of amino acids – the building blocks of proteins, (six times higher than bee pollen) and contain all 8 essential amino acids (such as isoleucine and tryptophan).

Goji berries contain up to 21 trace minerals (the main ones being zinc, iron, copper, calcium, germanium, selenium, and phosphorus).

Goji berries are the richest source of carotenoids, including beta-carotene (more beta carotene than carrots), of all known foods or plants on earth!

They contain 500 times the amount of vitamin C, by weight, than oranges, making them second only to camu camu berries as the richest vitamin C source on earth.

Goji berries also contain vitamins B1, B2, B6, and vitamin E.

Mature fruits contain about 11 mg of iron per l00 grams, beta-sitosterol (an anti-inflammatory agent), linoleic acid (a fatty acid), sesquiterpenes (cyperone, solavetivone), tetraterpenoids (zeaxanthin, physalin), and betaine (0.1%). Beta-sitosterol also lowers cholesterol and has been used to treat sexual impotence and prostate enlargement
Importantly, goji berries contain unique polysaccharides which fortify the immune system. A polysaccharide found only in this fruit has been found to be a powerful secretagogue (a substance that stimulates the secretion of human growth hormone (the youth hormone), by the pituitary gland).

Goji also contains …

- Fatty acids, which are required for the body's production of hormones and for the smooth functioning of the brain and nervous system.
- Cyperone, a sesquiterpene that benefits the heart and blood pressure, alleviates menstrual discomfort, and has been used in the treatment of cervical cancer.
- Solavetivone, a powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial compound.
- Physalin, a natural compound that is active against all major types of leukaemia. It has been shown to increase splenic natural killer cell activity in normal and tumour-bearing mice, with broad spectrum anti-cancer effect. It has also been used in the treatment for hepatitis b.
- Betaine, which is used by the liver to produce Choline, a compound that calms nervousness, enhances memory, promotes muscle growth, and protects against fatty liver disease. Betaine also provides methyl groups in the body's energy reactions and can help reduce levels of homocysteine, a prime risk factor in heart disease. It also protects DNA.
- Goji berries are an excellent source of Selenium (rarely found in Australian soils) and Germanium and have hence been used in a number of clinical trials involving cancer patients. When given to patients undergoing chemotherapy, the Goji Berries offered significant protection for the liver and improved recovery from chemotherapy.
- Linoleic acid which notably promotes decreases in body fat, supports increases in lean body mass. Linoleic acid also helps maintain healthy inflammation response and enhances immune function. Provides antioxidant protection. In Oriental medicine, they are said to correct chi-deficiency, meaning conditions such as low energy, insomnia, heart palpitations, and even anxiety.

.Goji berries have been traditionally regarded as a longevity, strength-building, and sexual potency food of the highest order. These Goji berries grow in ancient protected valleys in areas like inner Mongolia and Tibet. They thrive in the carefully cultivated millions of years old soils. The plants grow like bushes with vines that reach over 15 feet. The berries are never touched by hand as they will oxidize and turn black if touched while fresh.

The Goji (Lycium Barbarum) berry is plump and deep-red in colour. Our fruit is fresh pulped to retain goodness. It tastes somewhat like a cross between a cranberry and a cherry.

The Bovis Energy Scale

Antoinne Bovis created a method for measuring the "life force" or "natural earth energy" present in water, plants, rock formations and the like. A "Bovis" value for humans shows a rating of 6500. (A reading above 6500 being beneficial to human life)

• Noni measures 17,000
• Sea Silver = 24,000
• Limu = 54,000
• Mangosteen = 53,000
• Goji measures 355,000!

Goji Berries - Lycium Barbarum

The Goji berry of Himalayan origin (Lycium Barbarum), that we use are pure and grown in ancient soils untouched by any pollutants or pesticides. Its antioxidant qualities and phytonutrient content is equalled by none. It is said in Tibet that eating Goji berries in the morning will make one happy for the entire day, and with such a practice, the effect is cumulative, so eventually, one can't stop smiling!

Perhaps most telling, is that in an age when few Nutritionists and practically no Medical Doctors were advocates of the remarkable power of nutritional supplements, he was a lone dissenting voice among a chorus of medical practitioners who ridiculed the use of dietary supplements.

“As a pharmacist and nutritionist dedicated to helping others optimize their health and well being, it is a dream come tue to bring the miraculous goji to the world. I believe Himalayan goji juice has more powerful benefits on health and well-being than any other product I have seen In the last 40 years.”

In the mid 1980's Dr. Mindell published the all-time best selling book on the subject of nutrition (Dr. Earl Mindell's Vitamin Bible). The remarkable thing about this book was not that it sold 10 million copies, or that it has been translated into 30 languages. The remarkable distinction of this book was that it courageously stated what is now coming to be common place knowledge among the world's leading health practitioners: Nutritional supplements do matter! Prevention through proper nutrition is vitally important! People can take control over their health and well-being, naturally!
