What are goji berries?

You might have heard of goji berries and their health benefits. Their history as a medicinal plant has roots in ancient China. Many people use goji berries to treat eye, liver, and kidney issues. Also known as wolfberries, these festive red berries have a sweet, slightly sour taste and often come in dried form that are like raisins.

Goji berries are a good source of vitamins and minerals, including: vitamin C, fibre, iron, vitamin A, zinc, antioxidants. These berries contain all eight essential amino acids. A 1-ounce serving provides nearly 10% of your daily value for protein. For fruit, this is a surprising amount of protein.

Due to the higher fibre content or complex carbs in goji berries, your blood sugar will raise more slowly, reducing your risk for a sugar crash afterward.

Research suggests that goji berries can help you feel better and boost your health. Their health benefits seem to be particularly helpful for older adults. But claims about their ability to reduce arthritis pain and their anticancer effects need more clinical evidence.

Goji berries are more expensive than other fruits. More affordable options with the same health benefits include wheatgrass and green tea.

Going nuts for Cashews...
Cashews come from a tropical tree formally known as Anacardium occidentale. The tree produces a fleshy, pear-shaped stalk called a cashew apple on its branches. Inside the fruit is where you find the edible seed that most people know as a cashew nut. More recently, cashews have become popular throughout the world for their delicate flavour and extraordinary health benefits.
Cashew nut oil is rich in selenium, zinc, magnesium, iron and phosphorous. They are also a great source of phytochemicals, proteins and antioxidants. Cashews are an excellent vegetarian source of copper, providing more of the mineral than most other non-meat sources. In fact, eating a quarter-cup of cashews every day gives you 98 percent of your recommended daily intake of copper, which may decrease your risk of chronic disease.I n addition to containing high amounts of copper, cashews are a great source of zinc (WH Foods, 2014).

Like all nuts, cashews provide an excellent source of protein. Protein is one of three macronutrients your body uses for energy, and it is particularly important for rebuilding muscle tissue and creating new cellular compounds. Plus, eating protein prevents you from getting hungry between meals, which can help you stick to a healthy eating plan.
