Herbs for health

We are currently trying to grow Goji berries in our garden. I like an Alara muesli that has dry goji berries in it, but it would be fantastic to be able to pick fresh ones and add them to my breakfast muesli.

I've just come across an article which lists 50 herbs and gives some indication about how to grow them. This is what it says about Goji berries:

These all function berries can help the liver, improve fertility, and help you live longer. They grow best in temperate regions.

Not sure about improving fertility (I'm 61), but living longer and helping my liver - definitely.
