WHAT IS GOJI BERRY EXTRACT POWDER?
Goji Berry Extract Powder is derived from the wolfberry plant. These perennial, deciduous woody shrubs can reach heights of up to 3 meters. The variety Lycium chinense is cultivated in southern China and generally has a shorter stature, while Lycium barbarum thrives in the north, especially in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and typically grows taller.
The plants yield vivid orange-red, ellipsoid berries measuring 1–2 cm in length. Depending on the cultivar and fruit size, each berry contains between 10 and 60 small, compressed yellow seeds with a curved embryo.

WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF GOJI BERRY POWDER?
Allergies
Some individuals may experience an itchy nose upon inhaling the scent of goji berries. These people are often also allergic to tomatoes, peppers, or eggplant. If your lips tingle or you develop hives after ingesting goji berry powder, discontinue use immediately; do not attempt to push through the reaction.
Lowering Blood Pressure
An elderly person taking antihypertensive medication had normal blood pressure in the morning. After consuming a cup of goji berry powder mixed with honey in the afternoon, they felt dizzy upon standing. Goji berry powder naturally possesses mild blood-pressure-lowering effects, and when taken alongside prescription blood pressure drugs, it can cause a sudden drop in pressure.
Excessive Internal Heat
Those with yin deficiency and internal heat may already suffer from dry mouth and tongue at night. Adding two spoonfuls of goji berry powder can lead to bloodshot eyes and a hot sensation in the nose the following day—a classic sign of over-supplementation.
