Viva Naturals Organic Goji Berries
The Longevity Secret of the Himalayas
Tibetan goji berries have been used for over 5,000 years in ancient Chinese medicine. Appropriately named as the longevity berry, the goji berry was prized in Tibetan tribes for its nutritional value and characteristic flavor. Today, goji berries are considered one of the most nutritionally dense superfoods on earth, consisting of over 20 trace minerals, 18 amino acids, Vitamin C and antioxidants like beta‐carotene.
The Viva Naturals Difference
Viva Naturals Organic Goji Berries are selectively handpicked from the Tibetan plateau in the elevated regions of the Himalayas, often revered as ‘the Roof of the World’. Unlike sun‐dried goji berries, ours are collected only once the berries have naturally shade dried on fully developed shrubs. In fact, only 5% of all berries harvested pass our standards. The result is larger, juicier berries, more antioxidants and other nutrients, an incredible mouthfeel—and a noticeable lack of stems and leaves mixed in. Certified organic and non‐GMO, our berries are sourced directly from Tibetan farmers in compliance with fair trade practices.

Healthy, Glowing Skin
Goji berries are a source of beta‐carotene, a powerful antioxidant shown to support radiant looking skin. According to a study conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on the Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) of selected foods, goji berries received an ORAC score of 3,290, surpassing the antioxidant potential of blueberries, grapes and grapefruit.
The Benefits of Vitamin C
Our goji berries are loaded with immunity‐boosting vitamin C. Just one ounce of Viva Naturals Organic Goji Berries contributes to 8% of your total recommended daily intake of vitamin C. Vitamin C has also been shown to defend the body against times of stress and is required for collagen production, firming skin and improving joint function and mobility.
Source of Dietary Fiber
Fiber is essential for sustaining healthy weight, controlling blood sugar levels and promoting a healthy digestive tract. Dried fruits that provide a dietary source of fiber are not equally as nutritious as our sweet goji berries. One ounce of Viva Naturals Organic Goji Berries provides 2g of dietary fiber, contributing to 8% of your total recommended daily intake.
Promotes Healthy Vision
As a source of zeaxanthin, the ‘eye antioxidant’, and eye‐protective nutrients, goji berries are clinically shown to support healthy vision. Healthy elderly subjects were asked to consume 15 berries daily for 3 months. It was found that 15 berries alone increased the concentration of the zeaxanthin, naturally supporting the macula—the area responsible for central vision.
