There are more than forty different types of berries that are often referred to as goji berries, known in Tibet as pang jia. But Tibet Authentic's goji berry – the largest and most mature berry grown in the mountains of Tibet – is considered by ancient and modern-day doctors and scientists to be superior to all other goji berries, wolf berries and goji derivatives such as goji juice products. Only Tibet Authentic's goji berries have passed the Tibetan Medical College's rigorous quality selection criteria.

Are you wondering how a tiny red berry can have such a positive effect on your health?

• To start, the goji berry is higher in antioxidants than any other known food.
• The goji berry contains 18 amino acids – the building blocks for protein.
• The goji berry contains over 12 times more protein than apples, oranges, or strawberries.
• The goji berry is a better source of beta-carotene than carrots themselves.
• The goji berry has higher levels of vitamin C than oranges.

We've offered you lots of examples of the goji berry's health value. But we're not the only ones who recognize how amazing the goji berry is. The goji berry was celebrated as early as the first century A.D. by Shen Nong Ben Cao in the Divine Farmer's Handbook of Natural Medicine (one of the most important texts in the history of Chinese medicine).

Other doctors and scientists have recognized the value of the goji berry, too:

• "Lycium [the goji berry] tonifies jing [vital energy] and qi [breath] and strengthens the yin tao [capacity for physical exercise]."
  -- Tao Hong Jing, Commentary on the Divine Farmer's Handbook of Natural Medicine
• "Pang jia [goji berries] cure illness related to the heart and clear heat [discomfort and illness] within the body."
  -- Gama Rangjunduojie, Tibetan Medical Doctor
