Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S. See book keywords and concepts | I've seen Web sites that claim that goji berries cure cancer, guarantee you an extra twenty years of life, and make you a sexual superman. All of this is nonsense.

We earn nothing from the sales of these products. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Right now, I'm playing with goji berries. We found some the other day to start playing with. We went to a Chinese restaurant and the server there said, "We put them in our tea for sore throats. It is medicine." That's a new idea for us. We had been thinking of eating them like raisins.
Mike: That works, too. Well, thank you for your time, Hank. You've given us a lot of great information and we appreciate you stopping by.
Dr. Liers: Thanks for having me.

Educating yourself with independent information that isn't controlled by the mainstream media. This is the year to spend more time on the internet and less time watching corporate-controlled television or cable stations. Check out sites like www.OrganicConsumers.org | www.CommonDreams.org | www.EWG. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Start eating organic food, and start eating some of those foods raw. goji berries are great things to start with, and then you just feel your way out. Start having salad, stop going out to eat at night and start making your own food. Now how do you do that? Well, you just wing it. I mean, I'm way behind the current curve when it comes to making food. I just end up throwing everything into a blender, blending it up and running out the door.
You’ve got to go through a learning curve. | Gabriel Cousens See book keywords and concepts | We recommend against fruit for three to six months until the fasting blood sugar (FBS) stabilizes at 85 or below, and then only low-glycemic fruit such as berries, cherries, citrus, goji berries, cranberries, and an occasional apple.
LOW FIBER
Fiber is the part of the plant that cannot be digested or absorbed by the body. It is a carbohydrate that is obtained from vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds. Fiber is either water soluble or water insoluble. Water-soluble fiber is especially good for people with diabetes, because it delays the pace at which food passes through the stomach. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | This company is also a great source for Royal Himalayan Pink Crystal Salt, cacao nibs, coconut oil, irish moss, goji berries and much more...)
I was incredibly excited to discover a raw aloe product from Herbal Answers, Inc. (www.HerbalAnswers.com). It's called Herbal Aloe Force and it combines raw aloe vera gel with a potent combination of anti-cancer herbs including cat's claw, "Essiac" herbs and astragalus. | Gabriel Cousens See book keywords and concepts | Foods high in vitamin C include goji berries, grapefruit, lemons, broccoli, red peppers, Brussels sprouts, camu camu berries, and acerola berries.
VITAMIN D
Vitamin D is actually a hormone rather than, strictly speaking, a vitamin—one of the most powerful hormones in your body. It is active in quantities as small as one-trillionth of a gram.
Studies have shown vitamin D to have a protective effect against Type-l diabetes. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | So aside from the obvious things like stuffing your face with raw cacao and goji berries, what else is there to see and do at this festival? First off, the people here are incredible. From open-hearted meditation masters to everyday consumers looking for answers for improving their lives, you'll find the people here to be amazingly open-minded, generous and enthusiastic. (Thank you to all the many people who introduced yourselves to me. I love your feedback and compliments!) Far from being what one of my friends called a "hippy fest," I found the Raw Spirit Festival to be a Happy Fest! | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | The actual amount of goji berries in the product is likely miniscule.
4. Remember that ingredients lists don't have to list chemical contaminants. Foods can be contaminated with pesticides, solvents, acrylamides, PFOA, perchlorate (rocket fuel) and other toxic chemicals without needing to list them at all. The best way to minimize your ingestion of toxic chemicals is to buy organic, or go with fresh, minimally-processed foods.
5. Look for words like "sprouted" or "raw" to indicate higher-quality natural foods. Sprouted grains and seeds are far healthier than non-sprouted. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Eat chlorella, spirulina, goji berries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, astaxanthin, carrots and nutrient-rich superfoods to boost your skin's natural UV protection (takes about 30 days of nutrition to boost skin levels). | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | Chocolate Chunks
Have you ever taken a large, raw fig right off a fig tree, then stuffed it with raw almond butter, cinnamon, goji berries and chocolate? I haven't either. But for some reason, the Empowered Foods team thought this would be a great idea (did it come to them in a dream?), so they created a product out of it. The product rocks. Personally, I love raw figs in the first place (they're WAY better than the typical dried figs you get in the store). | | Empowered Foods also offers Goji Jelly Cups made with wildcrafted camu camu berries (the highest natural source of vitamin C in the world) and raw Tibetan goji berries (extremely rich in antioxidants, used for 5,000 years in Chinese Medicine).
Personally, I found the chocolate cups to be just as delicious as the bars, but I liked the bars better because they were easier to unwrap and eat. The cups take a bit of work, and if you refrigerate the Goji Jelly Cups and then bite down on one, the goji jelly smooshes out the side (yes, "smooshes" is a technical term used by nutritionists). | | Their Goji Jelly Cups, for example, are made with raw wildcrafted camu camu berry powder, raw Tibetan goji berries and "empowered chocolate." One taste tells you this is no ordinary food. In fact, it's among the highest-density superfood I've yet experienced. And the best part? It tastes so incredibly good that you'll have to exercise significant self discipline not to eat everything in sight.

You've never tasted chocolate like this: Creamy, rich, and constructed with 100% raw superfoods like goji berries, jungle peanuts, and even power foods like spirulina and E3 live. I've located a company in Florida that's making the most amazing raw cacao power foods you've ever tasted. I've conducted an interview with the founders of this small kitchen, and I'll bring you details on the products, how they're made and how you can get some for yourself! | Gabriel Cousens See book keywords and concepts | The Tibetan goji berries offered by the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center have been grown in protected valleys in wild and cultivated areas of Inner Mongolia in million-year-old soil where pesticides have never been used. They have been dried and are packaged in a vacuum-sealed bag. In a Phase 1.5 cuisine, the berries may be eaten alone in their dried state as a snack (just a few), or they can be soaked and incorporated into recipes.
FLAXSEED
Golden flax seed is packed with nutrition and is an essential daily addition to a healthful diet. | Dianne Onstad See book keywords and concepts | Tibetan goji berries are grown in protected valleys in wild and cultivated areas of Inner Mongolia in million-year-old soil where pesticides have never been used. These little berries are plumper and sweeter than the Chinese ones, although the Chinese variety claims to be the heirloom strain.
Buying Tips
Goji berries are only sold dried outside of their native countries.
Culinary Uses
The taste of these berries is not quite as sweet as a raisin and not as tart as a dried cranberry. They are pleasing to most people. | Mike Adams See book keywords and concepts | Blueberries, bilberries, goji berries, acai and many other types of berries are also hugely beneficial to protecting not only your vision, but also your brain.
Cataracts
A cataract is an eye disease—or at least it's called a disease—that is very easy to avoid. This one comes down to straight nutrition. You avoid cataracts by doing two things. The first thing is to avoid high-glycemic foods and drinks. By shifting to a low-glycemic diet, you will protect your eyes and your entire nervous system from damage caused by high blood sugar. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | We're really into distributing superfoods, which are things like spirulina and blue-green algae, and chlorella and bee products, like pollen and honey, maca from the highlands of the Andes Mountains and goji berries, the cacao bean -- which is the chocolate -- which is what all chocolate is made out of. These foods are extraordinarily nutritious and very fun to eat. It's just a joy to be able to get those into people's hands and heart, to get them to experience that. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | In the raw foods brownie I ate today, I noticed there were dried goji berries on top, and this is a berry that has been traditionally used for longevity by Tibetans in the Himalayas. This in an extremely high-antioxidant berry from Asia that reduces free radical damage throughout the body and enhances nervous and immune system function.
I've seen a variety of green foods and rich, dark, green leafy vegetables that, as I know from thousands of hours of research, prevent every cancer observed in human beings: Colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer and so on. | Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts | It's a conglomerate of about 25 people who are working in this movement, to get people organic, healthy, pesticide-free food that is extremely nourishing. goji berries are a good example of that. These berries are a complete protein and taste better than a raisin, so you have every excuse to want to eat it, plus you're getting all that nutrition on the back end. In terms of protecting ourselves from a pandemic, again I want to stress that we have to make sure that we're not in any kind of nutrient depletion. | | We're really into distributing superfoods, which are things like spirulina and blue-green algae, and chlorella and bee products, like pollen and honey, maca from the highlands of the Andes Mountains and goji berries, the cacao bean -- which is the chocolate -- which is what all chocolate is made out of. These foods are extraordinarily nutritious and very fun to eat. It's just a joy to be able to get those into people's hands and heart, to get them to experience that. | | What we're doing here is saying that not only should you be prepared, but when you are prepared, you can actually eat and have a blast sitting in your home eating chocolate, nuts and goji berries. If you're in that situation, you might want to have stored up extra, not just for you, but for your family, your friends, your community. You may be prepared and other people may not and it may not be a big financial obligation for you. It may be good to be extra prepared for other people because they aren't aware.
Mike: That's a very good point. | | It's a conglomerate of about 25 people who are working in this movement, to get people organic, healthy, pesticide-free food that is extremely nourishing. goji berries are a good example of that.
