Goji berries and their active components

Lycium Polysaccharides (LBP)

LBP (Lycium Barbarum Polysaccharides) are the most studied compounds in the goji berry. These complex sugars have been the subject of numerous studies regarding their antioxidant, neuroprotective, and immunomodulatory properties. Traditional Chinese medicine has used the goji (wolfberry) for over 2,000 years to support vitality. These properties are based on traditional use; there are no official EFSA health claims for the goji berry.

Zeaxanthin and lutein

The goji berry is exceptionally rich in zeaxanthin (2-4 mg/100g of dried berries), a carotenoid concentrated in the macula of the eye. Along with lutein, zeaxanthin protects the retina from light damage. Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal vision (authorized EFSA claim).

Beta-carotene

A precursor to vitamin A, it contributes to the health of skin, mucous membranes, and vision in low-light conditions.

Who are these goji berries for?
