The wolfberry bush is a plant that produces goji berries. Native to central China, it is now more popular and cultivated in many regions of the world, such as Tibet and Mongolia. In China, these berries have been used for thousands of years. These berries are small, red fruits, about 2 cm in size. They can be eaten raw but are most often dried. They are also used to make wine, teas, and liqueurs. They have a quite tart flavor, and 100g contains 370 kcal. They are suitable as a standalone snack or as an addition to sweet and savory dishes. Raw fruits can be boiled in water before consumption or added to soups, rice, and sauces.
Goji berries contain carotenoids, which give them their color and have a positive effect on the skin. They also contain polysaccharides, essential oils, and fatty acids such as hexadecanoic acid, linoleic acid, and myristic acid. They also contain organic acids such as malic acid, citric acid, shikimic acid, and fumaric acid. They can enrich our diet with minerals such as zinc, iron, calcium, copper, selenium, and phosphorus. They contain B vitamins, vitamins C, and E. Thanks to the presence of polysaccharides and polyphenols, they have antioxidant properties, meaning they fight free radicals in our body. These tiny fruits are a treasure trove of nutritional benefits that have a positive effect on the skin, rejuvenating it and supporting our immunity.
Also worth mentioning is their positive effect on vision. This is due to their carotenoid content, particularly zeaxanthin, which makes up the majority of the carotenoids, and lutein. Together, these protect the retina of the eye from damage caused by free radicals. Lutein protects our eyes from the harmful effects of light and UV radiation by absorbing visible blue light.
