Goji Berries from Sertar

Last updated 2026-11-12 — Goji berries come from the deciduous shrub Lycium barbarum of the Solanaceae family, which can be either wild or cultivated. They are known to nourish kidney essence, benefit vital energy, moisten the lungs, clear liver heat, and improve eyesight. They are used to treat conditions such as deficiency and consumption-related ailments, coughing, red and inflamed eyes with blurred vision, deficient liver causing excessive tearing, and pain due to weak meridians. The best quality goji berries are harvested around the summer solstice when the fruits are ripe. Autumn harvests are preferably done between the End of Heat and White Dew periods. Harvesting too early or too late can both affect the quality of the goji berries.
