Fascinating and makes me want to live on Goji Berries -
This article came out and hit the web when Goji Berries became very popular. I still believe they are very healthy for you and I suggest consuming them in small batches due the the sugar content.
Li Ching-Yuen was a Chinese herbalist, martial artist and tactical advisor who lived to the age of 256 having over 200 descendants during his life span and surviving 23 wives.
How did he do it?
Ching-Yuen is reported to have lived off a diet of herbs and rice wine including lingzhi, Goji Berries- wild ginseng, he shou wu, and gotu kola.
Where is the proof?
In a 1930 New York Times article, Professor Wu Chung-chieh of the University of Chengdu found Imperial Chinese government records from 1827, congratulating Li Ching-Yuen on his 150th birthday. Further documents later congratulate him on his 200th birthday in 1877. (Wikipedia 2013). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li_Ching-Yuen
After you read this article did you have the same thought I did!?! Maybe is the rice wine that kept him going, especially surviving 23 wives :).
