Goji Nutritional Facts

• Contains 18 amino acids—the building blocks of protein— including all eight that are essential for life.
  
  
• Contains 21 trace minerals, including germanium, an anti-cancer trace mineral rarely found in foods.
  
  
• Contains more protein than whole wheat (13 percent).
  
  
• Contains a complete spectrum of antioxidant carotenoids, including beta-carotene (a better source than even carrots!) and zeaxanthin (protects the eyes). Goji berries are the richest source of carotenoids of all known foods.
  
  
• Contains Vitamin C at higher levels than even those found in oranges.(3 times more per weight)
  
  
• Contains B-complex vitamins, necessary for converting food into energy.
  
  
• Contains Vitamin E (very rarely found in fruits, only in grains and seeds).
  
  
• Contains Beta-Sitosterol, an anti-inflammatory agent. Beta-Sitosterol also lowers cholesterol and has been used to treat sexual impotence and prostate enlargement.
  
  
• Contains essential fatty acids, which are required for the body’s production of hormones and for the smooth functioning of the brain and nervous system.
  
  
• Contains Cyperone, a sesquiterpene that benefits the heart and blood pressure, alleviates menstrual discomfort, and has been used in the treatment of cervical cancer.
  
  
• Contains Solavetivone, a powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial compound.
  
  
• Contains Physalin, a natural compound that is active against all major types of leukemia. It has been shown to increase splenic natural killer cell activity in normal and tumor-bearing mice, with broad-spectrum anti-cancer effect. It has also been used as a treatment for hepatitis B.
  
  
• Contains Betaine, which is used by the liver to produce choline, a compound that calms nervousness, enhances memory, promotes muscle growth, and protects against fatty liver disease. Betaine also provides methyl groups in the body’s energy reactions and can help reduce levels of homocysteine, a prime risk factor in heart disease. It also protects DNA.
  
  
• Goji contains astronomical levels of 4 unique bioactive Polysaccharides (LBP). a family of complex carbohydrates bound to proteins that defends the body against illness, pollutants and free radicals. These "master molecules" control many of the body's most important biochemical defense systems. In fact, the Goji Berry may be the richest known source of glycol-nutrients

These 4 unique Polysaccharides of Goji:

• Inhibits tumor growth.
• Helps in the prevention of cancer.
• Neutralize the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.
• Helps normalize blood pressure.
• Helps balance blood sugar.
• Combats autoimmune disease.
• Act as an anti-inflammatory.
• Balances immune function.
• Lowers cholesterol and blood lipids.
• Increases calcium absorption.

The Goji Berry is now undergoing intense scrutiny as a cancer drug in Tibet, Mongolia, China, Japan and Switzerland.  It has been found that the fruit, as well as an extract from its leaves, can kill many kinds of cancer cells in vitro.  In vivo studies and human studies are proving to be highly promising.  Goji Berries contains approximately 124 ppm of organic Germanium.  Germanium has been demonstrated to have anti-cancer activity. Japanese studies indicate that organic Germanium is effective in treating liver cancer, lung cancer, uterine cancer, cervical cancer, and testicular cancer when combined with other drugs.   It has been found to induce the production in human beings of g-interferon. Interferon can depress and even kill cancer cells.  Germanium possesses the power to take over the hydrogen ion from cancer cells. Losing hydrogen ions can cause depression and even death to cancer cells.  Besides Germanium, this berry has other components that act against cancer. These other components appear to be able to depress or block the synthesis of the cancer cells' DNA, which interferes with the cells' ability to divide and thus lowers the reproductive capacity of the cancer cells.
