 The Ultimate Berry October 26, 2006

Having consumed Himalania Goji Berries for over one year, the Navitas Naturals Goji Berry is a great addition to the exotic food market. The Navitas Goji is harder and drier than the Himalania Goji, but the flavor is much sweeter and better tasting.
I love the fact that they're raw, vegan, sun-dried, and free of chemicals and pesticides! Goji berries are believed to strengthen the immune system, increase energy and reduce fatigue, and reduce the threat of free radicals (due to HIGH levels of antioxidants). Gojis have highest ORAC score to date! The ORAC scale is a standardized test used to measure the total antioxidant potency of foods and nutritional supplements.
Definitely, one of my favorite foods!

Amazon has the best price I've seen on Goji Berries which can be up to $15 - $19 per pound. These puppies are a superfood and give you a ton of what your body needs. I eat them mixed in with Raw Coco Nibs (by the same company) for a great raw snack that keeps me going.

I love Goji berries and often eat them after my weight work-outs. I also throw them in the following cereal (raw & vegan), they make a perfect harmony in this recipe as follows:
Oatmeal Cereal Raw & Vegan - the Most Wholesome Cereal on Planet Earth: inspired to me by the Wonderful Magic Man, Peter Ragnar:
1/4 to 1/2 cup whole Oat Groats these look like buff colored pieces of rice, you will need to sprout them in filtered water one to two nights beforehand. So they will be ready for you in the morning. I think two days of soaking is best.
1/4 cup Goji Berries
3/4 cup blueberries
slices of banana and any other berry or fruit as you wish
1 cup refrigerated filtered water (trust me you want it cold..tastes good)
1/2 t vanilla extract
Himalayan Salt or Sea Salt
4 brazil nuts (soaking unnecessary because these don't have enzyme inhibitors)
2 T hemp seeds (Nutiva brand is good)
a bit of honey optional
In good blender pour 1 cup water, salt to taste, vanilla extract, hemp, brazil buts and honey if you want it (I don't use it). Blend up really well until a smooth creamy milk forms - this is amazing milk folks!
Now put all soaked oat groats, berries and whatnot in a cereal bowl. Pour over with the luscious milk you just made and eat slow, chew well because the stomach has no teeth :o) Add more a salt if needed. Don't forget to take your E 3 Live every morning - E 3 Live dot com.
Don't get hyped up by the name Tibet. February 13, 2007

When I first wrote this review, the product description had "Tibetan Plateau", "Tibet", and "Tibetan Goji Berries" all over the place. I'm glad to see it has been corrected just for the sake of consumer accuracy, although the product picture still shows "Tibetan Goji Berries" at the top.
I think this is a great product - my wife and I both like the taste and will continue to buy. I have purchased several different products from Navitas and have never had an issue (other than the product description on this item when I first purchased).
Don't buy into the marketing hype of a company that says their Goji berries are from the Tibetan Plateau. First off China has control of Tibet. So Tibet = China. Second the Tibetan plateau where all these berries were supposedly grown is too cold and too dry for a berry producing plant. Search it for yourself. All Goji and Wolfberry products are "Imported from China".
Tasty berries! February 15, 2007

These supposedly have some of the highest levels of antioxidants of any food, which is why I bought them. But I really like the taste too. It's not too far off from a cross between a tomato and a strawberry, but a very little bit bitter at times.
Overall they taste great, though some kids might not like them due to the slight bitterness.
Edit: A few of these berries have a bit of mold on them. I would reduce my ranking by 1 star if I could.
