text: have any of you heard of guji juice? you should check this out first. wow.  for those of you who don't know... goji juice is the main product for a company called "freelife."  you can read this very interesting short article (i especially liked the last line) and definitely watch the 3 minute video (takes a minute to play), for your own perspective.   goji juice being hit by new zealand  8 june 2006 - ads that are being run saying goji juice would cure cancer  sure got the ministry of health in new zealand to move fast.  there are also  reports that the high sugar content is sending diabetics to emergency  healthcare. here is the latest report.   http://tvnz.co.nz/view/page/411416/737781 yes, i have heard of goji juice, i market it. i have checked out the website you listed and would have to agree with the fact that people who claim it will "cure" cancer, aids, etc. are in direct violation of the company terms.  it is a ridiculous statement not to mention extremely detrimental to the rest of us who are marketing this product. but!  let me add that the new zealand news was also to blame for slandering this company.  their claim that goji has a high sugar content is completely unfounded!  i can back that with scientific evidence.  the lie that it is sending diabetics to emergency is also ridiculous.  you will note on your article and video on that site, that nowhere does it state that anyone in new zealand tested it!  there is substantial proof on pubmed.org under the heading lycium barbarum that what they are saying is totally untrue. the only claim we make is that goji can help with diabetes. this tiny red fruit has been used in china for the treatment of diabetes for many years, and it's polysaccharides have been shown to help balance blood sugar and insulin response.  it also contains betaine, which can prevent fatty liver disease and vascular damage often seen in diabetics.  goji also assists in weight loss by enhancing the conversion of food into energy instead of fat, and it increases exercise tolerance, stamina and endurance.  all of this is backed with medical evidence. of course when someone starts making outrageous claims and the media gets a hold of it, they are able to tear it to shreds in minutes,  which is exactly what they did here. i did not hear of one doctor in new zealand who tested it and showed any scientific evidence to the contrary (where the sugar is concerned).  i spoke to dr. earl mindell personally....he is the one who made this discovery, he is a pharmacist, master herbalist and world renowned nutritionist who is also the author of the vitamin bible.  i asked him specifically about diabetes and glucose content because i have 2 diabetics in my home who i love dearly.  i would hardly give them the juice knowing there was any glucose content!  dr. mindell assured me there is a trace of glucose in each bottle, not enough to even give consideration to.  he also assured me that the health benefits would be apparent in approximately 3 months of taking the juice. i am satisfied with the evidence at pubmed and the chinese oncologists reports that this product does indeed go to work on all auto-immune deficiencies and i will continue to market it based on what i have personally seen it do.   maybe you should contact freelife international and ask what their opinion is on all of this.  we do expect some negative feedback, as with any product, but i think most educated people would see that someone had made unreasonable claims and the media frenzy that follows only fans the flames.  i have many customers and that video would never be enough to change their minds on consuming this product for what it actually does.  they are satisfied with what it has done for them, including the 2 diabetics in my home who are seeing their blood sugar balanced for the first time in years, that they will continue to take it.   millions of people can't be just imagining the benefits!   dragondaddy!  i can't return your email because it hasn't been validated with yahoo.  i am unable to reach you so please email me at vbouvier@shaw.ca so we can continue our conversation....thank you.....valerie
