| The wolfberries that Young Living uses for all NingXia Red products come from their partner farm in Ningxia, China. This partnership has been a blessing. The region hosts diverse geography: forested mountains and hills, deserts, flood plains, and basins carved by the Yellow River. The significant irrigation from the river supports the production of wolfberries, wolfberry puree, and wolfberry seed oil. Are All Wolfberries Created Equal? There are at least 80 species of Lycium berries worldwide, but only the Barbarum shows the highest nutrient levels in scientific testing. The Ningxia region holds the Gold Certificate (China’s equivalent of the USDA’s organic certification). Because of Young Living’s Seed to Seal® Quality Commitment, the ones used for all the YL products are grown with no fertilizers, no pesticides, no sulfur, no irradiation, no dyes, and no heavy metals of lead, arson, mercury, or cadmium in the soil. |
| Environment and Community This partner farm regularly hosts field trips for nearby schools to educate future leaders of the wolfberry industry on sustainable agriculture and rigorous production standards. |
Young Living’s Ningxia Organic Dried Wolfberries are a sweet, organic snack from nature that’s easy to make a part of your daily diet.*
Young Living Founder D. Gary Young spent his life searching for the secrets to longevity, energy, and vitality. Along the way, he was introduced to Dr. Songqiao Chao, who shared information about a delicious, ancient berry, long-praised in China for its powerful health benefits.* Gary was told that people who regularly ingested this berry led remarkably long and healthy lives. Analysis by biochemists at the Ningxia Institute of Nutrition showed the wolfberry to be one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. Based on this information, Gary became determined to share this superfruit with the world.*
