Goji Berries?

Larry Hodges said:

A friend of mine asked me about Goji Berries. I did some Googling, and of
course there are tons of sites selling them and their extract for their
purported health and longevity benefits. Does anybody have any science to
support the claims? Are the claims your typical marketing hype? Input
welcome...

I think they're touted as antioxidants and the whole antioxidant thing is
questionable at this point.

I've seen them at the store for $12 a pound or something like that.
Supposedly they are a very complete source of nutrients. At $12 a
pound I would rather buy two things that complemented each other to be
a complete source of nutrients and cost like $4 a pound or less. I
guess I just don't "get it".
