Its main health benefits: As an anti-fatigue treatment, particularly in the fall and spring, it thins the blood and protects the eyes from accelerated aging and degenerative diseases. Attention ! Avoid consuming it if you are on anticoagulant treatment.

Buy and keep: Be wary of the Internet as it is impossible to verify provenance. 100% organic goji does not exist, which does not prevent you from finding good quality berries from Mongolia. You can grow it; you just have to germinate them as we do
