Well here's something...\n\nRecent research indicates that pomegranate juice has three times the antioxidant activity of red wine and green tea. According to Dr. Murad, it contains anthocyanidins, such as pentoside of malvidin and petunidin, delphinidin 3-glucoside, delphinidin 3,5-glucoside, and cyanidin 3-glucoside and cyanidin 3,5 diglucoside. The biochemical composition is 35 percent to 40 percent polyphenols and 5 percent to 10 percent ellagic acid. \n\nSeveral years ago, an independent pilot study took place to determine the effect of pomegranate extract on the sun protection factor of volunteers. Eight subjects (five females and three males, ages 18 to 60 with skin type I to III) used pomegranate extract orally and topically. First, he determined the minimal erythema dose (MED). Next, he applied four formulas (standard SPF-4 and SPF-8 lotions with and without pomegranate extract) and assessed MED. Subjects then ingested pomegranate extract daily for five days under supervision. At the endpoint, subjects were again tested for MED. \n\nBased on his research, Dr. Murad said, "You get roughly a 20 percent improvement in SPF, if you include the extract in sunscreen itself. Over and above that, if you take a tablet, you can have an additional 25 percent improvement in SPF." \n\nFor the last four years, he has been recommending pomegranate extract. "Especially to people with a history of actinic keratosis and sun damage," he said. "On a clinical basis, I'm seeing evidence of improvement. Patients have less erythema or it clears more quickly."

If you have checked out Noni juice, you can compare it to these Goji facts.  Goji tastes great too!\n* Contains 19 Amino acids-the building blocks of protein-including all eight that are essential for life.\n* Contains 21 trace minerals, including germanium, an anti-cancer trace mineral rarely found in foods.\n* Contains more protein than whole wheat ( 13%)\n* Contains a complete spectrum of antioxidant carotenoids, including  betacarotene ( a better source even than carrots!) and zeaxanthin (protects the eyes).  Goji berries are the richest source of carotenoids of all known foods.\n* Contains Vitamin C at higher levels than even those found in oranges.\n* Contains B-complex vitamins, necessary for converting food into energy.\n* Contains Vitamin E (very rarely found in fruits, only in grains and seeds).\n*  Contains Beta-Sitosterrol, an anti-inflammatory agent.  Beta-Sitosterol also lowers cholesterol and has been used to treat sexual impotence and prostate enlargement.\n* Contains essential fatty acids, which are required for the body's production of hormones and for the smooth functioning of the brain and nervous system.\n* Contains Cyperone, a sesquiterpene that benefits the heart and blood pressure, alleviates menstrual discomfort, and has been used in the treatment of cervical cancer.\n* Contains Solavetivone, a powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial compound.\n* Contains Physalin, a natural compound that is active against all major types of leukemia.  It has been shown to increase splenic natural killer cell activity in normal and tumor bearing mice, with broad spectrum anti-cancer effect. It has also been used as treatment for hepatitis B.\n* Contains Betaine, which is used by the liver to produce choline, a compound that calms nervousness, enhances memory, promotes muscle growth, and protects against fatty liver disease.  Betaine also provides methyl groups in the body's energy reactions and can help reduce levels of homocysteine, a prime risk factor in heart disease.  It also protects DNA.

the juice extracted from the fruit of Capsicum frutescens  Linne (Fam.Solanaceae) works best.

Not sure about their weight loss benefits. You'd be better off eating whole fruit, though - they have lots of fiber, which has more health benefits overall than juices. AND you'd get the same vitamins, too :)

Both are healthy, especially if you are drinking 100% pure juice.  However, eating the actual fruit will help to provide your body with the ruffage it needs to help keep your body clean as well.

Be careful with juice.  I have been doing some research and fruit juice is too concentrated with simple sugars which can cause you to gain weight.  Vegetable juices are better.  The best juicers are strong enough to pulverize the pulp into juice so you drink that also.  The extra pulp will be a great source of fiber and offset the sugar concentration.  The strongest juicers are also the most expensive but worth it in the long run!  Good Luck!

Hi,... In my well experienced opinion,... the likes of wheat grass juice is an excellent addition to anyones efforts to promote health in the body. ..... There have been many individuals who have benefitted greatly from a regular intake of this sort of supplement. (there are others available),...... You should know however that if you are eating a diet or living a lifestyle that is counterproductive to your own health,.. then taking something like wheatgrass juice is not going to do much of anything for you. ... It's potential benefits will be cancelled out by the negative effects of whatever else you are doing.\n\n .... Such a supplement as wheatgrass juice is a support tool,... not a cure all. .......... We in the 'modern world',... are indoctrinated into looking for the 'quick fix',.. or that little pill or one item that will solve our problems,... and that is not the nature of natural healing,... which is a 'Holistic' and harmonious science. \n\nI can also share with you that many consumers of wheat grass juice in fact grow their own wheat grass in their own kitchens and use a specific wheat grass juicer machine to make their own juice. ... It is a whole lot cheaper and provides a much more fresh supply of juice.  ...http://www.wheatgrasskits.com/

I had extremely bad eczema all my life and unfortunately, Doctors treat it with topical creams and such which were all ineffective for me.  If your baby has been diagnosed with eczema there is a fruit juice which can bring him a great deal of relief....and it tastes good too!  This is the only functional juice on the market with medical validation including 72 published clinical studies on pubmed.org.  Perfectly safe for babies as well as expectant mothers.\nGoji is an adaptogen which goes to work on auto-immune deficiencies, including eczema and psoriasis. Goji is full of phytonutrients and flavenoids which rapidly change your blood to alkalinity from acidity.\nI no longer have break-outs at all, neither does my daughter who has it on her feet.

"Coffee has more caffeine than tea" --> This is the general misconception among people.\n\nTEA actually holds a higher caffeine content than coffee. Note that the TEA i'm referring here is English tea.\n\nChinese tea and Green tea, however, holds a very small amount of caffeine. These 2 types are consider the most healthy form of tea (with caffeine amount in green tea the lowest)

If you have diabetes, there are simple steps you can take to manage it.  The National Diabetes Education Program suggests that you can reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke by working with your healthcare team to monitor three critical factors, which they have named the Diabetic ABC's.  A is for the A1C test. This is a number that shows how well your blood glucose has been controlled over the last 3 months and should be checked at least twice a year.  B is for blood pressure. The goal for most people is 130/80.  And C is for cholesterol.  Bad cholesterol (LDL) can oxidize and clog blood vessels, causing heart attack or stroke, while good cholesterol (HDL) helps to lower bad cholesterol.  The goal for most people is LDL under 100 and HDL over 40.\nGoji can help.  This tiny red fruit has been used in China for the treatment of diabetes for many years, and its polysaccharides have been shown to help balance blood sugar and insulin response. It also contains betaine, which can prevent fatty liver disease and vascular damage often seen in diabetics. Goji also assists in weight loss by enhancing the conversion of food into energy instead of fat, and it increases exercise tolerance, stamina and endurance.\nUsual dosage levels:  For diabetes, research suggests a usage of 2 ounces of high-quality standardized goji juice, taken twice daily at mealtime for a total daily intake of 4 ounces.  According to American Diabetes Association guidelines, 2 ounces of goji juice is equivalent to two-thirds of a fruit exchange.

There are several testimonials online in relation to people with fibromyalgia using goji juice products; however, no medical studies from what I could locate directly correlated the 2. Although, I did find an interesting link on www.pubmed.gov (listed link below) referring to a study that was done secluding a polysaccharide found in lycium barbarum and the effects it had on energy levels. I along with my daughter (5 years old) have been taking goji juice now for about a week and are not seeing a huge difference in energy, but I was told it comes gradually.
