The
Wolfberry was called
- goji - by native Chinese,
wolfberries have
a long tradition in folk medicine.
Ancient Chinese
medical texts extolled the wolfberry for
strengthening the eyes, liver, and kidneys as
well as fortifying the “qi” (chi) or life
force.
An early
medical work, Shen Nung Ben Tsao (475-221
B.C.), noted wolfberry benefits ranging from
replenishing vital essences to strengthening and
restoring major organs. The physician’s
handbook, Ben Cao Gang Mu, written during the
Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 A.D.) reported, “taking
in Chinese wolfberry regularly may regulate the
flow of vital energy and strengthen the
physique, which can lead to longevity.”
There is
an Extraordinary Place where mineral rich
soil and pure glacial water produce one of
Nature's true miracles - the superior "Ningxia"
Wolfberry. This simple red berry is widely known
as the most nutrient-dense food on the planet,
yet for centuries, only a relative few benefited
from its power.
Ningxia,
China is legendary for amazingly healthy
people. The Chinese national census recently
reported that the number of Ningxia residents
living more than 100 years exceeds the national
average by an amazing 400%. Ningxia locals now
admit their health secret lies in the locally
grown wolfberries.
The
Hometown of the Wolfberry
The Xinhaua
News Agency reported that the Ningxia variety of
Lycium barbarum “is far superior to ordinary
Chinese wolfberry in both tonic effects and
economic results.” Due to their superior
quality, some of the medical studies done on
wolfberry have specified the use of the Ningxia
wolfberries. As with other plants, the Chinese
wolfberry has a number of species or varieties.
Of the 80 different species of wolfberries
worldwide, the Lycium barbarum from Ningxia has
by far the highest levels of immune-stimulating
polysaccharides.
Ningxia’s Perfect Geography for the Wolfberry
The Huang He
(Yellow) River originates in the Himalayan
Mountains and flows through the Ningxia
Province. This river creates a unique,
mineral-rich, super fertile silt-water flood
plain found nowhere else on earth, producing
incomparable wolfberries.
The beautiful
Ningxia region is called “China’s herbal
medicine valley” and is renowned for meeting all
of the stringent rules to be awarded the
prestigious “Green Certificate”, the equivalent
of the USDA’s Organic Certification.
Ningxia Wolfberry Win's Prestigious Awards
The Ningxia
Wolfberry Group takes great pride in the nine
national and international gold prizes won by
its famous wolfberry. The Ningxia wolfberry has
won three gold prizes in the China Agricultural
Fair and a gold prize in the Malaysia
International Food Fair.
Re-Discovery of an Ancient Longevity Secret
D. Gary Young
has made it his life’s mission to search the
world for the secrets of long life, health,
energy, and vitality. In 1993, Gary Young was
introduced by Cyrus McKell, a professor of
Botany at Weber State University, to a Chinese
scientist who was visiting the United States.
This Chinese scientist, Dr. Songqiao Chao, told
Gary about a simple, delicious-tasting berry
with amazing health benefits. He said that
Chinese wolfberries had been used for thousands
of years in China to treat a wide variety of
ailments. What’s more, Dr. Chao related that the
people who consumed them on a regular basis
lived remarkably healthy lives for 100-plus
years. This information led Gary on an inspiring
odyssey to the Ningxia region of China located
on the Inner Mongolian plateau. In Ningxia, Gary
investigated the tiny red fruit known as the
Ningxia wolfberry. He agreed that this small
berry was the remarkable source of the vibrant
health and long lives of the Chinese people of
the region.
First to
Import Wolfberry into United States in
Commercial Quantities
Gary Young –
through Young Living Essential Oils – was the
first to import Ningxia wolfberries into the
United States on a commercial basis. Dr. Chao’s
daughter, Sue Chao, assisted Gary Young in
bringing the Ningxia wolfberry to the United
States. In 1996, when Gary Young first attempted
to import large quantities of the Ningxia
wolfberry powder, it was quarantined by U.S.
Customs as an unknown “peculiar” substance.
Customs agents said that it had never before
been imported to the U. S. in commercial
quantities.
