10. Goji Berries
These ancient berries can be found growing on an evergreen shrub in subtropical regions in China, Mongolia, and in the Tibetan Himalayas. Goji berries are part of the nightshade family, are you will typically find them sold in dry form.
Due to their pleasant sweet and sour taste and myriad health benefits, the consumption of goji juice has rocketed. Goji berries work, like many other berries, to give the body a healthy dose of beta-carotene, which will help promote healthy skin making you glow from the inside out. They’re popular with dieters as they’re high in both vitamin C and fiber, whilst remaining low in calories. Goji berries are an excellent source of iron, vitamin A and will even provide you with the almost 10 per cent of the suggested amount of dietary protein, which is incredibly high for a fruit.
There are loads of ways to get these into your diet: eat them raw, or soak them in hot water before snacking on them. Some people prefer to add goji berries to their trail mixes, or to sprinkle goji berries over smoothies, cereals, yogurts and even salads.
