Through the ages, legends abound about these miraculous goji berries. Even today there are still festivals held to celebrate their goodness. they are considered sacred.
During the Tang Dynasty (around 800 AD), a well had been dug beside a wall near a famous Buddhist temple that was covered with goji vines. Over the years, countless goji berries had fallen into the well. Those who drank water and prayed there:
Why are goji berries so popular now? It is said that the Himalayans were the first natural healers, and that they shared their wisdom with the ancient herbalists of China, Tibet, and India.

Those who came there to learn took goji berries home with them and planted them in their own valleys, thus spreading the legend of this most marvelous and healthful fruit.

How do the goji berries' antioxidant or ORAC rating compare to other foods? We all know of or have heard of friends or family members who when they hit their fifties begin to have all kinds of aches and pains and problems they just never had before. Part of this may be due to free radical damage over the years. Goji berries have one of the highest known ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) ratings. This is a unit value assigned by researchers to measure the antioxidant value of a given food. Antioxidants, as you may know, scavenge your body for free radicals, which can slow down the aging and degeneration processes in your body. Any increase in antioxidants in the blood can provide a significant boost to the body and raw fruits and vegetables have proven to be better than supplements with individual anti-oxidant vitamins. That's one of the reasons Goji berries have been so revered in Asian countries for centuries. They are truly one of the best foods to help you improve or maintain your health.
