Rumor Has it - NingXia Red Juice is AMAZING!

Ningxia Wolfberry: the Ultimate Superfood

When I started investigating various essential oil companies, I wanted to make sure I was making a health investment that was best for our family.  As I have shared with my friends and family we strive to make the best overall health choices.  I'd rather spend money on healthy organic food, natural supplements created from God giving resources to support healthy body systems.

When I was investigating, Young Living grabbed my attention because they have several products that incorporate the Ningxia Wolfberry.  I had never heard of this berry before and wanted to know more.

What is NingXia Red Juice?

NingXia Red is a specially formulated powerful antioxidant drink that tastes great, fortifies the body, and replenishes key nutrients. This proprietary blend contains pure essential oils such as orange, yuzu, lemon, and tangerine, as well as the renowned Wolfberry Puree from China’s NingXia Province, and a wide variety of vitamin enriched whole fruits such as blueberries, apricots, raspberries, and pomegranates.

Ningxia, China is an actual place

"The Yellow River flood plain where the Ningxia wolfberry crop is concentrated derives its water from the Himalayan mountains.  As the water flows through the mountain snow-pack and lower Himalayan foothills, it becomes charged with an unprecedented assortment of minerals and organic nutrients.  By the time it reaches the Ningxia province of Northern China it is a mineral rich, super fertile silt water, the likes of which is found nowhere else on earth **(Young 25)."

Why has the wolfberry been unknown in the west?  For the most part, the Ningxia people have been relatively isolated from the rest of civilization.  For centuries, they have been protected by deserts, mountains, and large land masses within central China.  Wolfberry legends and records of ancient Chinese medicine reach back 5,000 years.  Also, the wolfberry was kept secret because China kept its borders closed to foreigners for thousand of years, remember The Great Wall of China - the purpose was to keep people out.  The Ningxia wolfberry is also a national treasure and used by Olympic coaches as their "secret weapon."

So Why Was This Super Fruit So Important To Incorporate Into My Family's Daily Diet?  Great Antioxodant!
