Black Lycium barbarum is mostly wild. Compared with the large-scale cultivation of red wolfberry, the yield is less and the harvesting cost is higher, so the price is more expensive than that of red wolfberry. At present, the best wild Lycium barbarum on the market is Chaidamu, Qinghai.
Red wolfberry can be used to make tea and chew it dry. Black Lycium barbarum is most suitable for soaking in water because it is rich in proanthocyanidins, usually 3-5 capsules a day. It has antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-cancer, blood nourishing, tranquilizing and sleep improving effects, and has obvious functions of anti-fatigue, liver protection, anti-tumor, dredging blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and protecting cardiovascular system.
