Many of the traditional herbs are vanishing after many generations of successful treatment just because the modern people are not aware of them and much of the natural environment where these medical herbs grow has been encroached by human civilization. The Institute of botanical research in Tanaduk, Tibet has been trying to spread awareness about the many medical herbs especially focusing on Tibetan Goji berries which has recently come into serious attention from the western world because of Goji berries health benefits.
The institute has collaborated with the Tibetan lama doctors as well as local researchers in order to identify about 41 different varieties of Goji berry species including the one which is especially beneficial to our health. These berries are famed for its anti-cancer and anti-aging properties. The berry has been deemed to be a super food since it provides most of what a body requires like carbohydrates, fat, protein and fiber. Because of Goji berries health benefits it is now being cultivated in regions of Tibet and China.
The berries are also rich in essential vitamins and minerals which are very good for our body. The berry itself can’t be kept in its true form for a very long time and so it is marketed in form of capsules or health drinks in order to preserve Goji berries health benefits.
