Ⅰ Goji Berry - The Natural Immunity-improving Enhancer

1. Effects of Goji and LBP on Human Immune System

Goji and LBP in wolfberry juice are effective natural immunity enhancers. In recent years, as an excitant and without any inflammation, Goji has been proved to be an outstanding medicinal material. It contains many bio-active ingredients, which could activate NK cells and interleukin-2 and IL-2 in spleen cells, macrophages and lymphocytes.
Li Xue-ru et al of Ningxia Medical Institute had studied Goji on the basis of immunology. Animal tests found that Dried Goji Berry, fruit stems, leaves and LBP all could substantially enhance the phagocytosis of macrophages, the activity of serum lysosome and the efficacy of SRBC antibody in serum, and increase the number of cells formed by SRBC antibody in the spleen. So, they were capable of improving the immunity. This finding is consistent with that of traditional Chinese medicine.
2. Goji can Control Inflammations and Enhance Immunity

Goji could simultaneously realize the enhancement of human immunity and the prevention of inflammation. By improving human immunity, Goji Juice Concentrate could not only prevent arthritis but also inhibit the deterioration of other inflammations caused by immunity diseases.
The immunity cannot be separated from inflammation. When people become older and older, the immune system will begin to exhibit a sort of degeneration and instability and make internal wars with their own organs. Arthritis is a typical example. It is an age-related disease that originates from the attack of immune cells upon arthral cartilages. Such autoimmune diseases also include: erythema lupus, muscle atrophy, multiple sclerosis and thyroiditis, etc. With the increase of our age and the degeneration of the immune system there may arise another inflammation--hormone maladjustment, that is, the spleen and lymph nodes no longer contract and the immune system will produce more inflammation cells and less inflammation antibody cells. This means the increase of B-cell and the weakening of T-cell and a very dangerous change. What is more important, with the increase of age, the proportion of Th1 cells and Th2 cells will experienced a dramatic change, that is, the inflammation-resisting Th1 cells will decrease and the inflammation-causing Th2 will increase. Besides, in the spleen, IL-2 and CD8T cells will also see a decrease.

ⅡGoji Berry – A Natural Health Care Product for Anti-Aging

To summarize, short-term taking of large dosage of Wolfberry juice can improve most immunity, endocrine, O2= clearance and heredity indicators of aged persons. feed mice with Wolfberry from the 12th month to 18th month, their average life span will be prolonged; by feeding Wolfberry, the just hatched fruit flies will have a markedly longer life. All these indicate that Goji Juice and LBP are health-strengthening and life-prolonging.

Ⅲ Goji Berry - The Powerful Antioxidant

In A Study on Goji Berry, the most authoritative treatise on Wolfberry, there collected 396 special articles, 22 of which had discussed the anti-oxidation functions of Goji.
Of key projected implemented by the Science and Technology Commission of Ningxia from 1981 to 1988, in 1982, 43 aged volunteers with an age between 60 and 85 and without obvious illness took 50g Dried Goji Berry every day and a period of treatment consisted 10 days. The day after the completion of treatment, took and evaluated their venous blood. Results indicated that SOD of free radicals experienced some increase and lipid peroxide also saw a decrease.

ⅣGoji Berry - The natural Food for Preventing Cancers

As a beneficial medicinal material, Goji juice has not been found any toxic and side effect. Instead of directly killing cancer cells, Goji, as a kind of BRM, will go to enhance the immunity, increase cancer cell`s sensitivity to radiotherapy, chemotherapy and immunity and strengthen people`s endurance and thus is an auxiliary choice. LBP is found to be the active ingredient that can prevent cancers and adjust the immunity. By taking only 1/200 of the amount of Goji would the same immunity promotion be realized.
In recent years, there have been active researches on LBP`s immunity-adjusting mechanism. According to Zhang Xin, LBP might adjust the immunity through cAMP/cGMP system and the promotion of PKC activity. In the meanwhile, he also proved that outside the body, LBP could act upon cell membrane and adjust the immunity by promoting the fluidity of cell membrane and the activated transfer of PKC in spleen and lymph cytosol from cell plasma to cell membrane.
Organic Goji Berry has been used to prevent and cure illness for about a thousand years. Studies in the past several decades have shown that, Goji could resist inflammation, virus, atherosclerosis and cancer, and it contains an amino acid that could inhibit the synthesis and absorption of nitrosamine, activate the generation of cancer-resistant interferon, strengthen the immunity and prevent cancer proliferation. By mixing LBP and G.O as per certain proportion, we could strengthen the effects of cancer prevention.
