approaches the benefits of Goji,"
says pharmacist, master herbalist and nutrition researcher, and author of “The Vitamin
Bible” Earl Mindell, Ph.D., author of "Goji: The Himalayan Health Secret". Start
drinking our proprietary blend of Himalayan Goji juice today to feel astounding benefits

AMAZING ANTI-OXIDANT EFFECTS
Goji is packed with anti-oxidants ........... "The secret is Goji's polysaccharides, four of which are unique, as they are in equal balance," says Mindell. This new formulation has 30% MORE polysaccharides than Himalayan Goji Juice.

Growing areas, harvesting and manufacturing - heartfelt letter from Freelife:
As an environmentally and socially aware company, Freelife does not support opportunistic or irresponsible agricultural practices. The Goji berry has been cultivated in the foothills of the Heavenly Mountains for more than 500 years, and is essential to the economic and social health of the region. A measure of the great importance of Goji farming is that the Chinese government has granted autonomy to the Goji growing regions in Western China.
The Freelife company shares your concern about the conditions under which our goji berries are grown, harvested and processed. Our berries come primarily from the western regions of China, including the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and Gansu and Shanxi provinces.
Goji harvesting in the land of the Heavenly Mountains is by no means a small business. Goji vines are tended in countless small family orchards, each of whom work together in a network of local co-operatives. The profits are shared equitably amongst the contributing growers.
More than 33 million pounds of the fruit are picked every year in these regions by skilled workers, some of whose families have been cultivating the berries for more than 500 years. It's a way of life for these simple and unassuming people, and they are most happy to have our company as a customer as they can get a much better price for their berries from our company than they can domestically. That's because Freelife pays extra for the pre-selection of highest-quality berries that meet our exacting spectral signature and polysaccharide profile.
Freelife is now in the process of setting up a Goji Research Institute in China, which will be funded from profits of our proprietary blend of Himalayan Goji Juice. The Institute will help fund Goji research, and, by developing new Goji-based nutritional and personal care products, our Freelife will be advancing the economic development of these historic traditional growing regions.
July,07 - Freelife has just taken on board Rick Handell - co-author of "The Goji Book".
