Heath Trends for Trendy Men: Goji Berries Are the New Steak

Hello! If there were two words in the English language that sum up Jetlag Democracy, they'd have to be "trendy" and "man." I am a man's man, that's for sure, but boy am I trendy. I love fashion and pop culture, but not as much as I love heath trends. I can't get enough of the newest health and exercise trends. Everyday I get up, I take a bath with fresh herbs and expensive soap and then I scour the World Wide Web for the greatest (and latest) heath tips and trends. And recently, I came across one of the coolest, newest, dopest and downright healthiest trends in the history of internet scouring for heath trends. Goji Berries.

Madonna, Liz Hurley and Mischa Burton (just to name a few!) have been singing their praises for years. "Goji, oh Goji, I pick you on the mountaintop…Goji, oh Goji, I love you more than jellybeans," they sing, sing, sing. Normally, I wouldn't go out and get a product JUST because of a celebrity endorsement, but I figured the combined support of Mischa, Madonna and the Hurlster couldn't be wrong. I mean, how could it?

And you know what? It wasn't. The Goji Berries are for real, no fakey fakey, I swear. Recently, the BBC did a piece on the growing health trend, the health juggernaut really, that is The Goji Berry Phenomenon! Please, take a look:

"The Goji berry is the latest so-called super-food name to trip off the tongue and into the mouths of health-food evangelists. Small, red, dried, and a bit like a savory cranberry, the nutritionally-rich fruit is making the leap from specialist store to supermarket." -BBC.com

I mean if the BBC is running reports on this, it can't be wrong. Some people are calling Goji Berries, "Fruit Viagra." Hmmm, I think that's a little naughty but I couldn't agree more. I feel like a swarming beehive of passion, a tornado of love, whenever I slide a Goji down my wet and slippery throat, oh, it feels so yummy. [Chump! Gulp!] I just had one! It was so delicious!
