Merlin Natural Health

Tao Hong Jing (456 – 536 A.D.) a Taoist master wrote that Goji increases vital energy, while strengthening the userʼs capacity for physical exercise. Goji until recently was little known to Europeans and has been introduced after peer-reviewed scientific studies show it may be beneficial in the promotion of good health.

Goji is an Asian berry that originated deep within the Himalayas. Around 800 A.D. monks who drank from a well that Goji berries had fallen into, allegedly, lived long and healthy lives. From then on people from this area had learned that by consuming the Goji berry, they too could live longer than normally expected.

The reason people from this time period lived so long by consuming the Goji berry was the very high concentration of nutrients: Much like the Mangosteen, Açai, Tahitian Noni, Pomegranate and Aloe Vera. Among these nutrients are eighteen amino acids, vitamins C and E, and essential fatty acids. The four most important nutrients however are the unique polysaccharides found in the Goji berry that can fight cancer, diabetes, sexual dysfunction, high cholesterol and many more ailments faced by humankind. It is for these reasons that Goji is considered by many to be a Miracle fruit.

33 reasons why Goji Juice should be consumed on a daily basis.

1. Extends life, protecting your body from premature aging through its powerful antioxidant action.

Your body’s ten trillion cells are under constant attack by free radicals. These harmful environmental agents can accelerate aging by destroying vital body cells faster than they can be replaced. Goji is known as the “Longevity fruit.” Its unique master molecule polysaccharides and powerful antioxidants defend against premature aging, fighting free radical damage throughout the body.

2. Increases your energy and strength, especially when fighting disease.

Ranked as one of Asia’s premier adaptogens, Goji increases exercise tolerance, stamina and endurance. It helps to eliminate fatigue, especially when recovering from illness.

3. Makes you feel and look younger.

Goji stimulates the release by the pituitary gland of HGH (human growth hormone), the youth hormone. The benefits of HGH are extensive and include reduction of body fat, better sleep, improved memory, accelerated healing, restored libido and a more youthful appearance.

4. Maintains healthy blood pressure.

Nearly one in four U.S adults has high blood pressure (hypertension). Uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to stroke, heart attack, heart failure and or kidney failure. This is why high blood pressure is often called “the silent killer.” A 1998 research study showed that increased blood pressure could be prevented significantly by Goji’s master molecule polysaccharides.

5. Reduces your risk of cancer.

Goji is one of the only plants on earth that contains the anti-cancer mineral Germanium. Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead to cancer. Some scientists believe that Goji may be an especially good supplement to prevent liver cancer because it exerts liver protection and anti-cancer effects at the same time. This is important, as the liver is the body’s primary detoxifying organ.

6. Reduces cholesterol.

Goji contains beta-sitosterol, which has been shown to lower cholesterol levels. Its antioxidants keep cholesterol from oxidizing and forming arterial plaques. The flavonoids in Goji help to keep your arteries open and functioning smoothly.

7. Promotes normal blood sugar in early adult-onset diabetes.

Goji has been used in China for the treatment of adult-onset diabetes for many years, and its polysaccharides have been shown to balance blood sugar and insulin response. It also contains betaine, which can prevent fatty liver disease and vascular damage often seen in diabetics.

8. Enhances sexual function and treats sexual dysfunction.

The Goji berry is revered as one of the premier sexual tonic herbs in all Asian medicine, and is legendary for helping to spark the passions. In fact, an old Chinese proverb cautions men who are traveling far from their wives and families.” He who travels 1000 kilometers from home should not eat Goji”. Modern scientific studies have shown that Goji markedly increases testosterone in the blood, thereby increasing libido in both men and women.

9. Helps you lose weight.

In an Asian anti-obesity study, patients were given Goji each morning and each afternoon. Results were excellent with most patients losing weight. In another study, Goji polysaccharides were shown to reduce body weight by enhancing the conversion of food into energy instead of fat.

10. Relieves headaches and dizziness.

In traditional Chinese Medicine, headache and dizziness are often said to be caused by deficiencies in kidney yin (vital essence) and yang (function). Goji is among the most frequently used herbs for restoring yin/yang balance.

11. Relieves insomnia and improves the quality of sleep.

Goji has long been used throughout Asia in the natural treatment of insomnia. In several medical study groups with elderly people, nearly all patients taking Goji reported better quality of sleep.

12. Supports eye health and improves your vision.

Since ancient times, Goji berries have been very popular in China for their vision improvement properties. Modern Chinese scientists have found that Goji is able to reduce the time it takes for vision to adapt to darkness. It also improves vision under subdued light. Blind spots were reduced in patients taking Goji. Its powerful antioxidant carotenoids may also protect against macular degeneration and cataracts.

13. Strengthens you heart.

Goji contains cyperone, a sesquiterpene that benefits the heart and blood pressure. Its anthocyanins help to maintain the strength and integrity of coronary arteries.

14. Inhibits lipid peroxidation (a cause of heart disease).

Cholesterol and other blood lipids can become deadly when they react in the body to form lipid peroxides. The accumulation of sticky lipid peroxides in the blood can lead to cardiovascular disease, heart attack, atherosclerosis and stroke. Goji increases levels of an important blood enzyme that inhibits the formation of dangerous lipid peroxides.

15. Improves disease resistance.

The free radical superoxide has been implicated as having an important role in the onset and progression of human disease. Superoxide is neutralized in the body by the enzyme superoxide dismutase (sod), but you produce less SOD as you age. At any age, the stresses of everyday life can overwhelm your body’s ability to produce sufficient SOD to ward off illness. Taking Goji has been shown to result in a remarkable 40 percent increase of the important SOD enzyme.

16. Improves immune response (T-cell, IL-2, IgA, and IgG).

The immune system is your body’s “armed forces.” More than 40 years of research have revealed Goji’s ability to regulate immunity by commanding and controlling many of the body’s important defense functions. Goji polysaccharides enhance and balance the activity of all classes of immune cells, including T-cells, cytotoxic T-cells, NK cells, lysozyme, tumor necrosis factor alfa, and the immunoglobulins 1gG and 1 gA.

17. Cancer recovery (promotes cell growth).

Patients receiving a cancer drug together with Goji exhibited response rates up to 250 percent better than those obtained by the drug alone. These advanced cancer patients experienced amazing regressions of malignant melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, colorectal carcinoma, lung cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma and malignant hydrothorax. Remission of cancers in patients treated with Goji lasted significantly longer than those treated without Goji.

18. Restores and repairs DNA (preventing mutations that can cause cancer).

DNA is the most important chemical in your body. It carries the blueprint for all traits inherited from your ancestors and also ensures that- as they need replacement-your ten trillion cells are faithfully reproduced as healthy, exact duplicates. Exposure to chemicals, pollutants and free radicals can cause DNA damage and breakage, leading to genetic mutations, cancers and even death. Goji’s betaine and master molecule polysaccharides can restore and repair damaged DNA.

19. Inhibits tumor growth.

Interleukin-2 (1L-2) is a crucial cytokine (cell protein) that induces potent antitumor responses in a variety of cancers. Goji polysaccharides have been shown in Chinese studies to enhance the production of 1L-2. In the US. 1L-2 has been under study as a immune promoting factor since 1983, used for some cancers and for HIV infection. Goji also has the ability to cause the death of tumor cells by inducing apoptosis, a process in which cells are broken down and recycled.

20. Reduces the toxic effects of chemotherapy and radiation.

In one study, Goji was shown to enhance the effects of radiation in combating lung cancer, allowing a lower dose to be used. Other research indicates that Goji can protect against some of the noxious side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.

21. Builds strong blood, enhancing production of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and treatment of bone marrow deficiency.

Goji is a renowned blood builder and rejuvenator. In one study, Goji caused the blood of older people to revert to a markedly younger state. In another trial, vital red blood cells were protected against free-radical damage by Goji’s flavonoids. Goji has also been used in a number of recent clinical trials for treatment of bone marrow deficiency conditions (low production of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets).

22. Improves lymphocyte count.

A lymphocyte is any of a group of white blood cells of crucial importance to the adaptive part of the body’s immune system. The adaptive portion of the immune system mounts a tailor-made defense when dangerous invading organisms penetrate the body’s general defenses. Goji increases lymphocyte count and helps to activate them when the body is under attack.

23. Activates anti- inflammatory enzymes.

Extensive scientific research over the past 20 years has shown that, in acute and chronic inflammation, the free radical superoxide is produced at a rate that overwhelms the capacity of the body’s SOD enzyme defense system to remove them. Such an imbalance results in pain and damage to the joints and tissues. Goji can restore the balance of the important anti-inflammatory SOD enzyme.

24. Supports healthy liver function (detoxifies).

Goji contains a novel cerebroside that was shown to protect liver cells, even from highly toxic chlorinated hydrocarbons.

25. Minimises menopausal symptoms.

In traditional Chinese Medicine, many menopause symptoms are ascribed to a deficiency of kidney yin. For ages Goji has been the yin tonic of choice to restore hormonal balance.

26. Improves fertility.

Goji has long been used by Asian physicians for the treatment of infertility in both men and women. In women, Goji is said to have an unmatched ability to restore jing (reproductive essence). In men, Goji polysaccharides have been found to extend the life of sperm cells, and also were shown to be potent inhibitors of stress-induced structural degradation and cell death in testicular cells.

27. Strengthens your muscles and bones.

Goji facilitates the secretion and release of hGH, which is responsible for many of the body’s important maintenance, repair and development functions. These include the production of lean muscle and the incorporation of calcium into bones and teeth.

28. Supports normal kidney function.

In traditional Chinese Medicine, the kidneys are the most important of all the vital organs; they are believed to control the brain and other organs. Propern kidney function is considered to be essential to survival. Goji has a well deserved reputation as a supertonic, influencing both yin and yang.

29. Improves your memory and recall ability.

Goji is the premier “brain tonic” in Asia. It contains betaine, which is converted in the body into choline, a substance that enhances memory and recall ability.

30. Helps chronic dry cough.

Goji is used by Chinese herbalists, either alone or combined with other herbs, for relieving coughs and wheezing.

31. Alleviates anxiety and stress.

As an adaptogen, Goji helps the body to adapt and to cope with stress. It provides the energy reserves to help you handle just about any difficulty.

32. Promotes cheerfulness and brightens your spirit.

It is said that constant consumption of Goji brings a cheerful attitude. In Asia, it is rightfully known as the “happy berry”.

33. Improves weakened digestion.

Goji has long been used in the treatment of atrophic gastritis, a weakening of digestion caused by reduced activity of stomach cells. Goji itself is easily digested, especially when taken in its highly bio-available juice form.
