Organic Goji Berries (China)

Origin and interesting facts

The fruits of the "common boxthorn" or "devil's thread", "witch's thread" or "Chinese wolfberry" are now known in our country as goji berries. In recent years, these fruits have seen a strong increase in popularity because they are brimming with vitamins, minerals and trace elements.

Our organic goji berries come from China, where they are dried and packaged after harvesting.

Sulphurization to prolong the shelf life of the berries is avoided.

Goji berries contain important nutrients: plant proteins.

They are composed of 19 different essential amino acids and form the basic building blocks for the cells of the human body.

They help in the formation of new cells as well as in the regeneration of existing cells and have the property of counteracting pathogens and storing important minerals.

The polysaccharides (32% content) increase vitality, strengthen the immune system, stabilise blood sugar levels and ensure healthy intestinal flora.

Several unsaturated fatty acids reduce inflammatory processes in the body.

Furthermore, the ingredients help to lower cortisol levels and thus promote the burning of body fat.
