Misc:

Goji Berries Goji berries may be the most nutritionally dense fruit on Earth. They contain vitamins B1, B2, B6, and E; 18 kinds of amino acids--six times higher than bee pollen--including all eight essential ones; up to 21 trace minerals; are the richest source of carotenoids (including beta-carotene), and contain 500 times more vitamin C by weight than oranges, second only to camu camu berries as the richest C source on earth. Raisin-sized, they taste like a cross between a cherry and a cranberry. Mature fruits contain about 11 mg or iron per 100 grams, beta-sisterol (an anti-inflammatory agent), linoleic acid (a fatty acid), sesquiterpenoids (cyperone, solavetivone), tetraterpenoids (zeaxanthin, physalin), and betaine (0.1%).
