Asia's rejuvenating Goji berry

There are parts of northwestern China that are endowed with a different kind of wealth. The people of the Ningxia region, in the shadow of the Liupan mountain range along the Yellow River, have been cultivating Asia's favorite berry for centuries.

Gojiberry  trees in Kashmir

The small, bi-shaped berry found here is called 'Red Diamond' or 'Lal Hera'. It is believed to have anti-aging powers and has therefore gained new global status as a superfood.

But to the people of China, who have been using it medicinally since around the third century, it is simply goji berry or wolfberry.

Avena sativa seeds for sale

Wild Avena sativa seeds

Sexual Health  : Often described as "Nature's Viagra", Himalayan Avena sativa is soothing and calming to the nervous system, whilst at the same time increasing sexual desire in men and women. In men it is believed to increase luteinizing hormone levels. Luteinizing hormones are released by the pituitary gland and tell the testicles to produce more testosterone. It also stimulates the freeing up of bound testosterone, thus helping to balance the hormones necessary to support a healthy sex drive, sexual response and energy levels.

In women it is a tonic to the nervous system, making it good for recovering from exhaustion. Tradition holds it increases vaginal stimulation and advances the physical and emotional desires for sex. This effect is thought to be due to Avena Sativa’s ability to encourage blood circulation, a contributing factor to boosting sexual desire. Some traditions hold this herb in great regard for the relief of menstrual cramps and bloating.
