Doctors Speak Out on the Real Himalayan Goji Juice

The World's Most Powerful Food



Did you know that in some remote places in this world, a life expectancy of more than 100 years is not uncommon?

Research has shown that many of the world's longest living people consume regular daily helpings of a tiny red fruit that may just be the world's most powerful food the goji berry.

FreeLife™ is the first company to perfect a difficult and demanding proprietary extraction process and create the only standardized form of this incredible plant available in the world today:

HIMALAYAN GOJI ® JUICE.




This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

In Search Of The TRUE Goji

Just as there are many varieties of grapes for wine making, there are many varieties of goji—as many as 41 species growing in Tibet alone!

Earl Mindell knew that he must exhaustively analyze the dozens of varieties to find the one true goji—the one that had been discovered by the early Himalayan healers, and which, from ancient times, had been praised in legend.

In the same way that human fingerprints can be used to distinguish one person from all others on the planet, a spectrometer can detect even subtle differences between berries at the molecular level. This technique results in the generation of a graph, a unique fingerprint for whatever is being tested—a Spectral Signature.

Thanks to years of dedicated scientific research, FreeLife™ is the only company in the world to have developed a Spectral Signature to identify, isolate, and harvest only those special goji berries with the exact nutrient profile of the legendary goji from the Himalayas.
