Description Technical Specs More Information   Renowned in Asia as a highly nutritious food, goji berries, or wolfberries have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for about 1,900 years. Their undocumented legend, however, is considerably older, as wolfberries are often linked in Chinese lore to Shen Nung (Shennong), China's legendary First Emperor, mythical father of agriculture, and herbalist who lived circa 2,800 BC. Highly nutritious goji berries  have long played important roles in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) where they are believed to enhance immune system function, improve eyesight, protect the liver, boost sperm production and improve circulation.  Goji berries contain over 15% protein, 21 essential minerals, and 18 amino acids, making them a nutrient-dense super-food! In TCM terms, wolfberries are sweet in taste and neutral in nature. They act on the liver, lungs, and kidneys and enrich yin. They can be eaten raw, consumed as juice or wine, brewed into an herbal tea or prepared as a tincture. The berries are also used in traditional Korean medicine, traditional Japanese medicine and traditional Tibetan medicine. Goji berries may be eaten as a snack, in the manner of other dried fried. In China they are traditionally cooked before consumption. They release more nutritional value when cooked.
