Could you tell me if Goji berries contain any calories as I am currently having 5 a day to try and see if they will boost my energy. Sally
Hi Sally,
As a rough guide, Goji berries contain about 292 calories per 100g. However, 5 Goji berries seem to weigh less than one gram, so we are talking about less than 15 calories for this amount.
If you are looking to boost your energy, I really don’t think 5 Goji berries a day will be enough, but now you know the calorie content, perhaps you can increase this amount, add the calories to your Food Diary and see if that helps. Goji berries are full of antioxidants and very healthy, so they are a good choice for snacking!
