Healthworks Raw Organic Goji Berries are grown and harvested sustainably to come to you in their purest, most nutrient-rich state. Healthworks Goji Berries are certified organic, pure, all-natural, and vegan. Goji Berries are chewy, with a tangy but sweet taste, which can take a little time to get used to. We try to source some of the softest berries on the market, as this what our customers seem to prefer. However, depending on the humidity or even a particular batch, some batches can be drier than others. As the berries have been dehydrated, we recommend soaking them in warm water for a couple minutes to help them soften up. Consumed by both warriors and meditating monks alike, Goji berries (also known as Wolfberries), have been used in Asian herbal medicine for over 5,000 years and has been regarded as one of the most nutrient-rich foods on earth. They are a vegetarian source of protein containing high amounts of essential amino acids, vitamins C and A, and over 20 trace minerals and vitamins (including zinc, iron, phosphorus, B2, vitamin E, and carotenoids). Great with smoothies/drinks, cereals, yogurt, oatmeal, baked goods, baking cookies, ice-cream, trail mix, granola bars, coffee/tea, snack foods, or as a nutrient packed substitution for any recipe calling for dried cherries, cranberries or raisins Healthworks Raw Organic Goji Berries also go very well with Healthworks Cacao Powder, Chia Seeds and Maca Powder.
