Goji berry, also known as wolfberry, is a common Chinese herbal medicine that has a variety of effects such as nourishing the liver and kidneys, brightening the eyes, and moistening the lungs. In China, wolfberry is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine and health care, and is known as a "nourishing holy product".
The production areas of wolfberry are mainly distributed in northwest China, such as Ningxia, Qinghai, Gansu and other places. In these areas, the growing environment of wolfberry is unique, with abundant sunlight, dry climate, and mineral-rich soil, all of which provide a good environment for the growth of wolfberry.
In addition to being used as a Chinese herbal medicine, wolfberry is also widely used in Chinese food culture. It can be drunk as a tea or as an ingredient in a variety of dishes.
Goji berries are rich in vitamin C, carotene, goji polysaccharides and other substances, which play their own unique roles in the human body.
Vitamin C is one of the essential micronutrients for the human body, which has antioxidant and immunity enhancement effects. Carotene is a powerful antioxidant, which can remove free radicals in the body, delay cell aging, and have a significant effect on protecting eyes, ** and other organs.
What's more worth mentioning is that wolfberry polysaccharides contained in wolfberry, which is a substance with obvious biological activity, can regulate human immune function, enhance resistance, and have a certain effect on disease prevention.
In addition, wolfberry also contains a variety of amino acids, minerals and other nutrients, which work together to form a unique tonic effect of wolfberry.
Drinking wolfberry soaked water often has countless benefits for the body. First of all, goji berries are rich in a variety of nutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which can help boost immunity and prevent colds and other diseases.
Secondly, the polysaccharide components in wolfberry have obvious anti-fatigue effects, which can relieve fatigue and enhance physical strength and mental state. In addition, goji berries can also improve sleep quality, alleviate insomnia symptoms, and help people rest better.
Not only that, goji berries also help protect the liver, lower blood pressure and blood sugar, and are also beneficial for cardiovascular health. For women, wolfberry soaking water can also beautify the skin, improve the best condition, and make the skin smoother and more delicate.
In addition, drinking wolfberry soaked water often also helps to regulate hormone levels in the human body, improve menopausal symptoms, and delay the aging process.
Green tea
Goji berry, which is a well-known Chinese herbal medicine, nourishes the kidney yin, brightens the eyes, moisturizes the lungs, and escorts our health. Green tea, on the other hand, is fresh and pleasant, rich in antioxidants, can reduce blood lipids, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, and is a healthy drink in life. However, although goji berries and green tea each have many health benefits, they should not be consumed at the same time. The reason is that the polyphenols contained in wolfberry, when it meets the tea polyphenols in green tea, like fire and oil, will instantly undergo a chemical reaction to produce a harmful substance called acrylamide. This substance is like a health killer, and if you take a large amount of it for a long time, the risk of cancer will quietly increase. Therefore, for the sake of our health, it is better not to consume goji berries and green tea at the same time. 
Crabs
Crabs and wolfberries, one cold and one hot, seem to be a blend of ice and fire. Both are loved by people, but eating together is bad for your health. Crabs are rich in protein, fat and carbohydrates, like treasures of the earth, while goji berries are like a godsend, rich in vitamins and minerals, especially precious vitamin A and carotene.
If the two meet in the stomach and intestines, there is a risk of indigestion, diarrhea and flatulence. The cold is intertwined, like winter snow meets spring breeze, hurting people invisibly. Therefore, it is wise to take a break from the wolfberry when tasting the crab in order to protect your health.
YogurtGoji berries are eaten with yogurt and may cause adverse chemical reactions. The rich antioxidants in goji berries are like a game when they meet the casein in yogurt"Chemical storms"。This causes the protein in the yogurt to coagulate and deposit like fallen leaves in autumn, which not only reduces the nutritional value of the yogurt, but also may cause gastrointestinal discomfort such as indigestion and diarrhea. 
In addition, the properties of wolfberry and yogurt are warm and cold, just like the warm sun and cold lake water in winter. When these two meet, it may trigger a cold and heat battle in the body, which is not conducive to maintaining the harmony of physical health. Therefore, when enjoying these two delicacies, we should stop in moderation and avoid overdoing it, so as to better taste the beauty of each other. When enjoying the deliciousness and health brought by goji berry soaking water, we also need to be wary of some potential contraindications. First of all, although wolfberry has the effects of nourishing the liver and kidneys, brightening the eyes and nourishing blood, it should be drunk cautiously for people with colds, fevers, body inflammation, etc. Because goji berries are warm, they may aggravate the condition or cause other discomfort.
Secondly, goji berries have a high sugar content and should be avoided by diabetics. In addition, for people who are taking cold medicine or specific drugs for other diseases, they should also temporarily stop drinking wolfberry soaked water to avoid adverse reactions or affect the effect of the drug.
In addition to the above contraindications, we should also pay attention to the dosage and collocation of wolfberry soaking water. Excessive consumption of wolfberry soaked water may cause irritation, nosebleeds and other phenomena, so the daily dosage should be controlled within a reasonable range. At the same time, in order to ensure balanced nutrition and rich taste, we can add other ingredients according to personal taste, such as red dates, chrysanthemums, longan, etc.
In addition, when choosing wolfberries, you also need to pay attention to quality and **. A high-quality goji berry should be dark red or dark red, with a shiny and full surface, and a mellow and sweet taste. Try to avoid buying goji berries that are too bright in color or have an odor to avoid affecting your health.
Recently, the National University of Singapore published a striking study in the journal EUR J Nutr, which delves into the health secrets of goji berries. In the study, scientists made a detailed comparison of the effects of dried goji berries with goji berry extracts.
The results were amazing: dried goji berries showed a better health effect than the extract. It can effectively reduce triglyceride levels and raise HDL cholesterol levels, which is important for our health.
However, dietitian Gu Zhongyi reminds us that although dried goji berries have a significant health effect, their hard taste may cause a burden on the temporomandibular joint when chewed for a long time. Therefore, he suggested that we add dried goji berries to water to soak to make full use of their health effects.
In order to better retain the red pigment in the wolfberry and prevent it from being destroyed by oxidation, we can add a tablet of vitamin C when brewing. Of course, just drinking water can't fully absorb the nutrients of goji berries, so eating the processed goji berries together ensures that we get all the health benefits.
