May promote eye health

According to a preliminary study, goji berries may improve eye health and protect against disorders such as macular degeneration, a degenerative eye ailment that can result in visual loss. Goji berry supplementation enhanced blood antioxidant levels, avoided hypopigmentation of the macula (the center part of the retina), and helped soften fatty protein deposits under the retina in a 90-day study of 150 older persons.

Similarly, in a study of 114 adults with early macular degeneration, daily goji berry supplements enhanced macular pigment density, which may protect against macular degeneration progression. Goji berries also include antioxidants such as zeaxanthin, which help protect your lenses and retinas from damage.
