orangeandpear: Five easy ways to add goji berries to your diet for enhanced nutrition, trace minerals and longevity [I’ve been eating goji berries on an almost daily basis for at least six years. They’ve been part of Chinese Medicine for over 5,000 years, and they’re super dense in antioxidants, trace minerals, carotenoids and other health-promoting phytonutrients. But a lot of people don’t know how to really incorporate them into their diets! So below, you’ll discover five easy ways to eat more goji berries and experience their extraordinary health benefits for yourself. 1) Blend into fruit smoothies Simply take some organic fresh or frozen fruit, blend it with almond milk, then add in a scoop of goji berries. I also like to add chia seeds, pomegranate powder, camu camu powder and some superfood powders such as Rejuvenate or Living Fuel. 2) Sprinkle onto granola  Goji berries make any granola better! It instantly increases the nutritional density of the cereal while delivering minerals like zinc and phosphorus. Plus, it’s rich in vitamins C and E in their natural plant forms, not synthetic vitamin forms. 3) Add to trail mixes and nut mixes This is a no-brainer: Any trail mix, nut mix or travel snack mix can be instantly improved with superior nutrition by adding goji berries to the mix. 4) Soak in water to create “goji tea” When soaked in water — either cold or hot — goji berries swell and release nutrients into the water. They’ve been used for thousands of years in China to make a nutrition-rich “fruity” tea.  5) Bake into muffins and breads Although goji berries are more nutrient dense when consumed raw, they still pack an impressive nutritional profile when baked. This means you can mix them into recipes for breads, muffins and more… and you’ll instantly enhance their nutritional density with a superfood powerhouse! Goji berries have more antioxidant power than broccoli! As you’ll see in our goji berry infographic here the ORAC scale shows goji berries have a higher antioxidant score than broccoli, grapes and strawberries. They’re loaded with antioxidants and carotenoids, and they’ve literally been used for over 5,000 years to promote stamina and longevity as part of Traditional Chinese Medicine.] (via. pic: via) I need to find a better place to buy these in bulk. at the local “health food” store they are 25.00 a lb.
