Whats so special about Goji berries?
According to Dr Paul Gross, goji berries contains anti-oxidant phytochemicals with potential health properties and have a high carotenoid content, including beta-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin and lycopene which are rarely found in common berries. In addition, there are significant levels of carbohydrates, protein, dietary fiber, and linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid. Goji berries are also an excellent source of dietary fiber via high density of polysaccharides.
