CHINESE WOLFBERRY INFORMATION

The Chinese wolfberry is a perennial shrub that grows in China and Tibet. Among the Asian people the wolfberry is referred to as the "herb of longevity" because it provides the body with energy and endurance. The chinese wolfberry is also called the "red diamond" due to its powerful nutrition and antioxidant punch.

The beneficial ingredients contained in the chinese wolfberry are:

• Polysaccharides: healthy sugars needed for cell membrane functiona and structure.
• Polyphenols: these are flovones, isoflavones,catechis, quercetin,proanthocyanidins, ellagic acid, anthocyanidins.
• Zeathanthin esters: antioxidants found in berries and some herbs.
• Vitamin C: according to the USDA wolfberries contain the highest content of all fruits and vegetables.
• Calcium: for muscle and bone strength.
• Beta carotene: like that found in carrots.
• Fiber: Good for intestinal health.

Chinese Wolfberry may be found dried or in juice form. I enjoy the dried berries in smoothies, on cereal and in baked goods, like muffins. The juice is also great in smoothies or by itself.
