[Nature Holic] Mungyeong Grown Omija Berries
Omija Berries (also known as Magnolia Berries) have been used for centuries in Korea as medicine.
That's because Omija Berries are packed with antioxidants which reduce free radical buildup in your body. (Free radicals are volatile molecules that injure cells and cause your body to breakdown)
They're also considered an adaptogen - which are natural herbs that support the body's natural ability to deal with stress. The berries help stabilize the levels of stress-associated compounds in the blood - which keep negative effects of stress like fatigue and fogginess at bay.
Now, the list of health benefits from these berries continue (you can Google it!)
But the best part is its unique taste! When eaten, the berries contains all five flavor profiles: sweet, sour, bitter, salty and pungent (spicy).
Today, we present to you one of Korea's Premium-Grade Omija Berries.
These Omija berries are grown in Mungyeong (a mountainous city located in North Gyeongsang, near the Sobaek mountains). Mungyeong is famous in Korea for producing the best-quality omija. Every year, festivals are held there and many tourists from all-around Korea come to harvest Omija berries.
One sample of these Mungyeong berries and you'll notice the quality - deep dark-red, naturally-dried and pleasantly tart.
If you're interested in trying Korean Omija Tea, this is a great choice!
Note: Schisandra Berries are possibly unsafe when taken during pregnancy - there is some evidence that it might cause the uterus to contract (stay on the safe side and avoid use if you're pregnant).

Now pour the omija liquid into a large pot
We'll sweeten the liquid by adding 450g of sugar (do not stir it)
Place pot on HIGH heat and wait until the sugar dissolves into the liquid
Then reduce to a MEDIUM heat. Let it boil for another 5 minutes

Continue to reduce the liquid until half of it remains. It should thicken into a runny syrup texture
Turn off heat. Let the extract cool down fully
