Wolfberry (Goji) Extract

Wolfberry fruit is a bright orange-red, ellipsoid berry 1–2-cm deep. The number of seeds in each berry varies widely based on cultivar and fruit size, containing anywhere between 10–60 tiny yellow seeds. Wolfberry contains zeaxanthin, carotene, polysaccharides, betaine, cerebroside, beta-sitosterol, p-coumaric, and various vitamins. Wolfberry has been used for nourishing the liver, and in turn, improving the eyesight in traditional Chinese medicine.  wolfberry Goji

Side Effects Wolfberry or Goji

Prolonged large intake of wolfberry tea has been reported to increase bleeding. An in vitro study suggests that it may interact with warfarin. Atropine, a toxic alkaloid, is also found in wolfberry fruit, but its normal concentration in the berries is far below the toxic level. If you are on medicine, you must consult with your doctor about the side effects of wolfberry and the potential interaction, before taking any wolfberry products including goji juice.
