Item 13 of 14
Goji Berry In GlycoAid
A dried fruit from Ningxia, unusually rich in the carotenoid zeaxanthin.
What It Is
Lycium barbarum, grown mainly in the Ningxia region of China and eaten dried for centuries.
What it is studied for
Antioxidant activity and eye health, mostly, on small human trials rather than large ones.
Evidence grade: Small. Centuries of use behind it, and very little modern trial work in front. Rather than folding it into an average, this page prints it.
What it carries
Zeaxanthin in unusually high amounts for a fruit, along with other carotenoids and polysaccharides. The zeaxanthin is genuinely notable.
The Dose Question
Published work ranges from a handful of grams of the dried fruit up to concentrated juice. No dose has settled, and nothing on that scale would fit in this blend anyway.

Cautions
Goji can interact with warfarin, which is documented and worth mentioning to a clinician if that applies to you. Beyond that it is simply a food eaten in quantity across much of Asia.
Questions About Goji Berry
What is goji berry doing on this label?
Its place is the antioxidant end of the list, not the glucose end.
What is zeaxanthin?
A carotenoid associated with eye health, carried by goji in unusually high amounts for a fruit.
Does goji interact with medication?
There is documented interaction with warfarin. Mention it to your clinician if that applies.
Better as a supplement or as fruit?
The studies work in grams of dried fruit. Within a 500 mg blend that becomes a modest supporting quantity.
Judging It Fairly
No single item on this panel can be assessed from the outside on its own, and no single week of taking the capsule settles anything either. What week one is actually measuring takes that apart properly.
Where It Sits In The Formula
Goji Berry is printed inside one 500 mg proprietary formulation alongside thirteen other items, so the amount here is unknown. That is the honest position on every panel page on this site, and it is why where the 500 milligrams goes is worth ten minutes. The item before this one on the label is Maca Root and the one after it is Licorice Root.
