Anti-aging

Immunosenescence is closely related to T cell apoptosis. Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) can significantly improve the phagocytic function of macrophages and enhance the proliferation capacity of T lymphocytes. Lycium barbarum can strongly inhibit the formation of lipid peroxides, thereby achieving an antioxidant effect and further enhancing the body's anti-aging effects.

Anti-tumor

Lycium barbarum polysaccharides are not only a biological response modifier that regulates immune responses, but also can exert anti-cancer effects through the neuro-endocrine-immune regulatory network.

Resistance to radiation damage

Lycium barbarum has the effect of resisting gamma ray radiation and protecting the body. It can be used as an auxiliary drug in combination with radiotherapy and other anti-tumor drugs to reduce the toxic and side effects of radiotherapy, improve the efficacy, and protect the body's immune function.

Regulate blood lipids

Lycium barbarum has obvious function of lowering blood lipids, regulating lipid metabolism, and plays a positive role in preventing cardiovascular diseases.

Improves vision

The human body's retinal photoreceptors are composed of retinol (vitamin A) and visual proteins, and the beta-carotene contained in wolfberry can produce the retinol needed by the human body, thus improving vision and preventing macular disease.
