Himalayan Goji Juice Opinions

Hot Diggidy Blog Diggidy, What You Do To Me is a mom’s blog about her and her family. I took a snapshot of her home page for you to see. She blogs about a whole bunch of stuff. She says she lives in Michigan with her husband and her daughter. Her son passed away a few years ago at the age of ten. When I read that I felt a great deal of sadness. I have no children myself, but it is hard to imagine greater sorrow than losing a child. How do you deal with that?

Another story comes to mind I heard on the radio this morning about pediatricians recommending against over-the-counter medication for very young children and encouraging the use of home remedies instead. (I most drove off the highway into a tree, I was so surprised.) The reason being according to the news report is that the side effects can really take a toll on the little ones.

Now I am not saying that all natural things are remedies, because there are poisonous plants out there as well, but the Himalayan goji berry is not one of them. The goji juice can be consumed in large quantities even by children (or so I am told).

And if the unthinkable happens to you, you can always minimize the physiological damage on yourself by the anti oxidants contained in the Himalayan goji juice.

It is truly amazing the number of personal blogs one comes across these days. Blogs and blogging aren’t the main buzz words on the Internet any more, but the popularity of this particular form of self publishing has not faded.

Beej’s blog is mostly about life, family, friends, anything under the sun, in other words, he covers a great variety of subjects. As I browsed through the blog, I noticed though that health per se isn’t necessarily something he likes to blog about. It’s shame really, not just because the theme of my blog is natural medicine and particularly the Himalayan goji juice, but because health should be everyone’s priority. If you have a blog as versatile as Beej’s, there really should be room for a health article or two.

The blog otherwise is very informative and provides a great deal of insight into the life and psyche of its author. While everyone is aware of the fact that the Internet can produce a great deal of junk, it’s websites like this one that make it worth to cruse the web day in and day out. Good job Beej, keep it up.

I included a screen shot of the home page as well.

While this may be off topic for this blog, I have had an epiphany just the other day. What iPods
are to the portable gadgets, pharmaceutical drugs are to your health. iPods are very popular, so are drugs you get at your local pharmacy. People tend to trust iPods because of the brand that’s behind them, and most people rather go with the stuff the doctor prescribed because it takes a long time to become a doctor, not to mention the fact that you have to be pretty smart too.

There is a downside, though. With iPods, if you do the proper research you will find that there are cheaper alternatives that do pretty mush the same for you minus the Apple logo. If you have to have the good feeling coming from owning the brand, that’s fine, but if you just want a relaible and affordable device, you might want to go with a run-of-the-mill mp3 player.

But when it comes to lab-developed drugs, the picture is slightly different. While one can live (in theory) without his or her daily fill of gadgets, it may not be as easy without perfect health. While medical science contributed a great deal to the quality of life of the modern human being, has come without strings attached. There are side effects to just to mention the most major drawback to modern drugs. Herbs such as the Himalayan goji juice are frowned upon by doctors, because they have been indoctrinated that they are the intellectual superior’s of the vast majority of the population, and that herbal medicine is borderline witchcraft.

Herbal medicines could offer a great deal to society, but politics and the power brokers are keeping things under control. However, it doesn’t matter if your are talking iPods or medicine, the individulal through the voice the collective is still in control, that is, if he or she decides to practice that control.

I have come across an interesting website today. It offers moon property for sale. I didn’t know you could do that. I have included screenshot of the site in this post. It’s amazing what you can do these days. I know that you could include your name on a list that will end up on a satellite in space. That was kind of cool I thought, and you can do this for free.

If you want in, you can buy an acre on the Moon for less than $35. It seems that they are targeting people who are looking for a different gift for a friend or loved one. There are even packages for couples for adjacent properties that you could give as a romantic gift. In return for your $30 or so, you get a certificate.

Right now it may seem somewhat frivolous trying to divide the surface of the Moon into chunks, but the day may very well come that a trip to the Moon is not out of the reach of the messes in the developed world. You may want to go there just for the heck of it, or there may be also reasons to take to the moon for commercial ones like mining and such.

The technology that will allow us to get into space for about as much as an overseas trip would cost is just around the corner. Seriously. You may have heard of carbon nano tubes. They have managed to get the carbon atom to form small tubes that kind of look like Chinese finger traps. This material is supposed to be very strong and very light. Strong enough, as a matter of fact, that they could be used to serve as a cable for a space elevator.

I have found an interesting blog today. It is not exclusively about alternative medicine and herbs, but it has a few really good articles on the subjects. SurayBlog has one particularly interesting article about drug rehabilitation and recovering from substance abuse in general. It made me think about what possible use Himalayan goji juice and other goji herbal products could have on people who have made some poor choices in the past and now can’t seem to be able to get rid of the consequences.

Somehow I haven’t found any literature or articles on the subject. Maybe, the people who are looking for products like goji juice are already health conscious, and stay away from drugs. Maybe, this is the reason why no one tries to use the herb to this effect.

In any case, I do not think that the wolfberry can help you quit any bad habit no matter how mild or severe it may be. However, what it might be able to do is to help your body repair some of the damage quicker or at least do some damage control. Illegal drugs can do extensive damage to the entire body. Ingesting herbal supplements such as the Himalayan goji juice, that have been proven to help the body gain more energy and remove harmful free radicals can only help a recovering drug addict.

Herbs that have a reverse effect on aging (hence the name anti aging) have been in great demand for countless centuries if not thousands of years. One would assume that for the most part of the past several millennia, the efforts were mostly in vain as the science of medicine was in its infancy. Chances are that charlatans and snake oil sales men were the only ones who benefited from these efforts.

Fortunately, the science of counteracting the effects of aging has come a long way. This is partly because we have discovered the existence of free-radicals, which is a group of chemical compounds that will effect the body’s ability to regenerate. If the body can’t regenerate like it is supposed to, it will age faster.

Now, I have been bashing ancient people in the first part of this article for their perceived lack of medical knowledge, but the truth is the some of them were onto something. The have discovered healing plants that, among other things, had anti aging effects. One such plant is the goji berry. It is a small, orange-red fruit that the Chinese have been using for a long time for a great many things including for its anti aging properties.

Ginkgo biloba is another plant that will have positive effect on short term memory if nothing else. That could be considered an anti aging effect as memory loss is usually associated with advancing years.

Bilberry and blue berry are said to improve eyesight, another aging related ill effect. Berries in general have the tendency to reduce the levels of free radicals.

Soy and red clover also have anti-aging properties.

Since I dedicate this particular blog to goji related products, I make a point to keep an eye on the information that is out there on health related websites. Yesterday I came across a blog called Nishas world of interests that is not as focused on health issues as mine as it is, among other things, a personal blog. It also covers topics like celebrity gossip. (I have included a screenshot of the main page for you see.)

The fact still remains that people are becoming more-and-more health-conscious. They share ideas on their blogs and, if they pick up on something, the thing will spread like wildfire. The same thing happened to the Himalayan goji juice and other goji products and information. The Internet has revolutionized the exchange of information that way.

Now, the problem is with easy access to a lot of people in a short period of time with incredible ease that people will say stuff that are not very credible. Take goji products themselves as an example. The multi-level-marketing company FreeLife decided to call their product Himalayan Goji Juice, and that is just not correct. As I mention throughout this blog, the goji berry that we make juice from comes from China, even though certain varieties may come from the Himalayas and Tibet. People also pick up on this and the mudslinging begins. This is not good for anyone and the quality of the discussion suffers. 

I came across a cute little blog today titled ‘Things I want to share’. This guy blogs about a number of subjects. It looks like the site is more of a personal blog than anything else.

One thing that the site could use in terms of an additional subject is health related stuff. Not to toot my own horn here, but the reason I started blogging about the goji berry and goji products in general, because I think that it is important that people lead a health life, and in my opinion goji can provide you with a lot of benefits toward that end. This is not to say that every thing you hear about the Himalayan goji juice and other products you can believe. Far from it.

In any case, Justin Gonzaga’s blog is an interesting read and if you have the time you should check it out. I have included a screenshot of the website for you to see.

If you are most people, you want to consume goji, because you have heard the beneficial effects it will have on your health. It is only natural that you want an organic goji juice source for the stuff that you are going to put it in your body.

To cut to the chase right off the bet, a company called Dynamic Health. Their product is not only cheaper than competitor FreeLife’s product, but it is also one hundred percent organic goji juice. I wrote an article a while back about the places to buy organic goji juice. Go to this page to read about them.

There is a legitimate reason to buy organic goji products. See, the stuff is grown in China (not the Himalayas, by the way). And as such, they do not have the same restrictions on the use of pesticides, herbicides and fungicides as nations in the West do. As a matter of fact, you better be buying your goji organic to avoid doing more bad than good to your body.
