Victoria Beckham shuns botox in favour of Goji Ber 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
Saw this article about Victoria Beckam shunning botox in favour of Goji berries..
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/main.jhtml?xml=/health/2008/04/03/hgoji103.xml

I''d heard that Goji berries were supposed to be a ''superfood'' - Apparently they have up to 500 times more Vitamin C than oranges, store linoleic acid which is an essential fat that plumpens up the skin and makes it appear more youthful - But how much of all of this is really just marketing hype?

Why are all the superfoods exotic and cost a fortune - wouldn''t it be great if they classed a good old fashioned granny smith as a superfood, or maybe potatos.....

I reckon most of these superfoods are pretty good for you.. It''s just whether the ''goodness'' warrants the price. And whether you could get the same ''goodness'' from cheaper, less well marketed alternatives.

In saying that I''m a Goji Berry fan.. and also blueberries and broccoli and...

Maybe I''m a sucker but it can''t hurt
