Goji berries, as they've traditionally been known are turning naysayers into believers worldwide and yet, many still have never heard of them. Although around long before your grandparents' grandparents it is only lately that these berries, also known as Lycium or Wolf berries have been pushed into the spotlight after men and women have caught wind of their nutritionally beneficial potency.
Health related stories cover the entire spectrum, from just having more vitamins than more known foods to the rumored and now legendary: a 256 year old man who out-lived his 23 wives. Between the known and the downright outrageous, lies the facts: scientific evidence that simply cannot be ignored. And even if you are dumber than a 2 x 4, one would have to agree that with the overwhelming amount of endorsements coming out of the woodwork as these wrinkly, but impressively potent, sweet and tangy berries reach more of the masses, each excited to tell their personal story about their Goji berry experience, you certainly have to be curious about what they are saying.
You need not be a brain surgeon to determine honesty from fiction. There are not many of us in today's world who won't make a move unless given the order to do so by a medical licensed doctor. In fact, more often than not, well-intentioned individuals like you and me and those we love have suffered results after applying a physician's advice and many times we have learned to despise it. But most folks wise up, long before they become old. "Old-school" thinkers may listen to the medical community words with intense focus, but today's generations have an abundance of resources at our disposal to fill in the missing details on specifics, when needed.
That's the good news. The bad news is there are often too many resources to choose from. Heck, if one was to narrow their research to Google alone, they'd have to sort through a very literal hundreds of millions of pages plus, to find the answers that have been disguised until their enlightened discovery. Information overload is the major difference between determining fact from fantasy from way back when, to today. You could become buried under an avalanche of information available these days, but obviously with people's hidden agendas aplenty, you must decipher on your own who to believe and who to ignore.
Wolf berries and Goji berries and the information that continues to be published about them is such an example. Every day, new studies are surfacing, but how do you sort the absolute fact from the proof lacking fiction?
Maybe you have seen the testimonials stretching from one end of the world to the other. Maybe you have heard the latest word of mouth highlighting results that made you pay attention. Adding the Goji Berry into your diet has many health benefits that a health article such as this one simply couldn't cover in full, without quickly turning this article into an encyclopedia set. Reports have come in by the boatload: deterring Cancer growth, lowering high blood pressure (BP), improving libido, slowing hair graying, improving your circulation, shedding unwanted pounds, and the list of personal improvements, longer than your right arm, continues.
Instead of addressing each, let's concentrate on what is backed by conventional and alternative doctors, scientists, researchers, independent studies and end users: antioxidant potency and its effect on your immunity.
For years, pound for pound, the most publicly known superfood definitely in the United States, if not the world, at what has consistently gotten the best publicity are 2 every day foods: broccoli and blueberries. Nutritionally, the short version of their story is they pack a punch, benefit your body in many ways, and are a part of every ideal, healthy diet. Both consistently appear on "top foods to eat" lists everywhere and anywhere, because they are so healthy. Why? Antioxidants.
Blueberries beat broccoli in antioxidants by more than three hundred percent. Now, before I make your brain explode with possibility, let's first address why you may not know this information. However you care to explain it, unfortunately, the common theme is money, more specifically greed. It is the prominent, determining reason in many things you now know about and those you never will.
Do you recall the lashing a certain President took, and the united stand that broccoli farmers took, literally showing up on Pennsylvania Avenue (where the White House resides) with trucks filled to their brim with bushels of broccoli? My question for you is: who has more money? Broccoli farmers (a major source of revenue in the United States) or blueberry farmers? Known information is known, because there is more money to tell more people about it.
Why have most not heard of Goji berries, if they are so darn good for you, and have thousands of people claiming the "impossible", including reversing major diseases, not yet "cured" in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and every other powerhouse of medical research?
(Fair warning). Prepare to be mind boggled.
Goji berries were discovered in Tibet. The Tibetan Goji berry is by far the most authentic, especially when backed directly by the Tibetan Government, officially and documented but we'll save that for a different discussion. How many Tibetan farmers have the funds to compete with broccoli farmers in the United States?
If radios and televisions aren't everyday items typically, how many households and businesses in Tibet do you think have a computer and internet access? Any wonder why Goji berries are still a mystery to the most?
Broccoli is antioxidant rich, and most popularly mentioned in mainstream media. You now know that the blueberry outrivals broccoli 3 to 1 healthy in comparison. What about Goji berries? (You may want to sit down). Here is undeniable, scientific fact: Goji berries have twelve times as many antioxidants than blueberries. Twelve times as much! This may sound crazy, but this is 100 percent science. Goji berries have a commanding by any definition 2,843 percent MORE antioxidants than the well known, often highlighted, teetering on "common knowledge" superfood: broccoli.
Why care? Antioxidants in simplified, combat and ideally defeat free radicals attacking your immune system regularly. When your immunity suffers, you suffer. With a suffering immune system, a common virus could kill you. I'll refrain from sharing the explicit details, such as projectile vomiting and explosive diarrhea that can happen when your immune system is under attack and tries its best to fight back so you don't die, but suffice me to say, if you lose control of your, or take your immunity system's well being lightly, you won't be around too long after to argue the point.
Tens of millions of dropping you to the knees and regretting the day you met them, viruses can be transferred to another by touch alone. When your immunity is weak, potentially disastrous trouble is ahead. Your body becomes vulnerable. Susceptible to being contagious, an inviting, unnecessary, wide open door to pain, hardship and trouble that could be completely avoidable, simply by taking care of yourself.
Broccoli, blueberries and now that you are in the know, Goji berries are antioxidant rich. Goji berries, of all present choices, are the stand out option to ensure a virtual, bullet proof, Fort Knox equivalent immune system that is so unrivaled, few in their right mind, can afford to ignore its possibility. It's as easy as that. The real beauty? Eat sweet berries that are nearly 3000 percent better for you, or broccoli by the shovel full, that well, tastes like broccoli.
