I know a lot of people are into goji berries right now, I think they're supposed to be super nutritious or something (never had any).

my friend swears that her friend has the BEST skin and hair now, and that the friend claims that she never gets sick anymore, and sleeps soundly each night -- and is seriously attributing all of this to goji juice!

I'd love to hear from anyone else w/any experience with this stuff!

OK personal opinion here – None of us ever get sick and while I do attribute it to diet and lifestyle. I don’t think there is any ONE miracle food. Goji appears to be an excellent antioxidant, which improves the immune system and fights free radicals. (Fighting free radicals is one of the most important things you can do for your health) We use the Goji fruit, juice and tea at times, BUT we also drink green tea, red tea, pomegranate juice, cranberry juice, red wine. - eat dark chocolate and tons of veggie/fruits. Antioxidants seem to be synergetic so I doubt if just one would significantly make any noticeable change in your life or health but certainly wouldn’t hurt either.

It’s the trendy vite right now – making it expensive plus the jury’s still out on how valuable it is, so unless you want to experiment by adding it to an arsenal, I would stick with some of the other proven antioxidants -green tea, red wine, etc.

My neighbor swears by this product. She and her BF buy it by the case. She says she didn't notice the difference until they ran out and after a couple days she noticed that she felt sluggish and she wasn't feeling great. She also calls her BF the goji monster b/c his sex drive is through the roof and he is wking her up for it now, where it wasn't like that in the past. (they have been together for 8 years)

Is this the stuff in a wine bottle?? I saw some stuff my hairdress was selling, and she said it was some great whatever she called it. Anyway, You drink 2oz at first, then 1oz., I think. The bottle was EXPENSIVE!!! I didn't buy it.

The stuff you describe sounds like Monavie. It is 42.00 a bottle. I know many people who are into this and they say they feel much better. Also, my one friend, who is also a distributor of Monavie, has been giving it to her autistic twins and the teachers have commented that they see a noticeable difference in their attention span.

Yes, that's the stuff I am talking about. Thanks for clarifying for me.

My dh bought this stuff called "Ageless" for $39.00 a bottle made by "OASIS" is this made by the same company? If so we have friends that swear by it, but I forget to take it sometimes...maybe it works, lol

There are SO many products out there like this. We were distributors for a product line called "Eniva" a few years ago. I loved it at first, then they changed the formula and I wasn't as pleased with it. They have many products. The only thing I wish we still got was the "silver". It is fantastic for burns, as an antibiotic and several other uses. They quit selling it as something youcan take internally I think. I would never get into something like this again, eating right and being active are what it takes, not miracle juices. I'm not saying there may not be benefits, I just think we need to remember they are just out to make money...........
