The first part is focused on a literature researches, which is concentrated on the studies which deal with the influence of Lycium barbarum on the human health. In the second part, experimental, was determined content of total polyphenolic compounds, by methods FRAP was evaluated the reducing power and by DPPH radical was determinated antiradical activity. Berries from Lycium barbarum are an important source of health beneficial substances. The studies showed that there are unique thanks to its high content of carotenoids and specific proteoglycans. Lycium barbarum has got an important role in traditional medicine. Berries from Lycium barbarum are used primarily as a tonification substances and are recommended as a dietary supplement. Our obtained results confirmed a high content of antioxidant power (FRAP 2.47 mmol EAA; DPPH 0.58 mmol TEAC) and high content of total polyphenolic compounds (434 mg/L GAE).
