Goji berries have been used in traditional asian and in particular chinese medicine for over 5,000 years. The ancient texts of chinese medicine say that goji berries increase the "chi" or the vital life force of those that eat them. The physician’s handbook, Ben Cao Gang Mu, recorded during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 A.D.) writes, "taking in Chinese Wolfberry/Goji Berry regularly may regulate the flow of vital energy and strengthen the physique, which can lead to longevity".
