Traditionally, lycium fruit is described as having the properties of nourishing the blood, enriching the yin, tonifying the kidney and liver, and moistening the lungs. It is applied in the treatment of consumptive diseases accompanied by thirst (includes early-onset diabetes and tuberculosis), impotence, sore back, dizziness, blurred vision, diminished visual acuity, and chronic cough. In China, treatment of bone marrow deficiency conditions (low production of red blood cells, platelets, or white blood cells, often the result of cancer therapies) with herb formulas frequently involves lycium fruit as a major ingredient.
