How to distinguish the authenticity of wolfberries

I don’t know if you have noticed in your life that the wolfberries you see in supermarkets and shopping malls are generally red. In fact, there are also black wolfberries. In fact, the nutritional value of black wolfberries is higher than that of red wolfberries, and the various trace elements they contain are also richer. However, black wolfberries are also more expensive. However, many illegal vendors will sell fake products in order to make a profit. So how do you tell the authenticity of wolfberries?

First, let's talk about fresh black wolfberry. After the seeds are crushed, there are about ten small seeds in the authentic black wolfberry, and the shape of the small seeds is fruit-like;

The fake white thorn fruit has a single core. It doesn't have the deep blue-purple color like black wolfberry.

2. After the dried black wolfberry is soaked in water, the color of the black wolfberry gradually fades as the anthocyanins are released. After soaking for a long time, the black wolfberry will turn into a blue-white translucent color.

Also, if you break open the black wolfberry, you will find about 10 small seeds inside;

3. It is particularly noteworthy that the anthocyanin content of black wolfberry is three times that of blueberry. Anthocyanin is light blue when soaked in tap water and purple in purified water. However, the difference will gradually decrease with the increase of soaking time. When the black wolfberry is opened, the inside is the same color, which cannot be achieved by dyeing. This is a good proof that black wolfberry is natural in color.

The above is an introduction on how to distinguish the authenticity of wolfberries. I believe that everyone should know how to distinguish them when buying wolfberries. When buying black wolfberries, it is recommended to go to regular shopping malls to buy them, and try to avoid buying them from small vendors. When purchasing, you need to remember the points introduced above. I hope it will be useful to everyone.
