An Overview Of Goji Capsules

Goji is also known as wolfberry, happy berry, matrimony vine and boxthorn. Probably you may you have noticed this new health supplement on the market. Its Latin name is Lycium barbarum fruit.

 It is believed that the Himalayas were home to the world's first natural healers. Among the most valued Himalayan secrets was the tiny red berry Goji which became so popular that visitors brought them home and propagated them around the region. Since then, Goji has become a staple of Asian medicinal foods.

 Goji berries contain polysaccharides which strengthen the immune system. A polysaccharide found in this fruit has been found to be a powerful secretagogue (a substance that stimulates the secretion of rejuvenative human growth hormone by the pituitary gland).

 Goji berries have been traditionally considered as a longevity, strength-building, and sexual potency food of the highest order. In several research groups with elderly people the berry was given once a day for 3 weeks, many beneficial results were experienced and 67% of the patients T cell transformation functions tripled and the activity of the patients white cell interleukin-2 doubled. In addition, the results revealed that all the patients' spirit and optimism increased significantly, appetite improved in 95% of the patients, 95% of the patients slept better, and 35% of the patients partially enhanced their sexual function.

 Goji's Protective Properties

Goji also provides some complex molecules called polysaccharides which the body uses to calm nervousness, enhance muscle growth, protect against infection, strengthen memory, and protect the heart.
