Wolfberry is known in Asia as an extremely nutritious food. It has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for at least 1700 years for multiple health benefits, such as: nourishing the Yin (Yin-Yang theory is the fundamental theory of Chinese Traditional Medicine. Yin represents the material part of the body and Yang represents the energy and function part of the body), strengthening the eyes, liver and kidney, and nourishing the blood.
Recently, Chinese researchers extensively studied wolfberry fruits, their nutrients and their medical benefits in more systematical ways. They have further substantiated the ancient medical applications such as: maintaining healthy immune system (including specific and non-specific immune responses), supporting healthy liver function, and keeping healthy blood pressures and blood sugar levels.
Wolfberry is also an excellent herb for anti-oxidant and anti-aging.
Method:
