Dear all
We plan to add attached data for goji berries in USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, 28, planned for release next month. The data is mainly based on label data from 4 manufacturers - Navitas Naturals, Extreme Health USA, Himalayan Harvest, and Himalania. These manufacturers represent majority of the product sold in the US. There is wide variability in the label nutrients.

Best
