"As always, I recommend consulting a health-care professional to determine whether and how much noni is right for you. Because of noni's high potassium content, it could pose hazards to your kidney and liver, especially if consumed in excess. The book 76 Ways to Use noni Fruit juice for Your Better Health by Isa Navarre goes into detail about how much noni you should drink, and which specific medical conditions it can help treat. A Homeopathic First-Aid Kit Instead of masking problems with drugs, homeopathic remedies?" - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This!

"There were no adverse events (CTCAE criteria) attributable to noni. Using a multilevel regression analysis of noni dose (2, 4, 6, 8, 10 grams) and week of study, there was a statistically significant [t(35)=-2.84, p=.006] decrease in pain interference with activities. Although not reaching statistical significance, consistent dose response effects were found for global health status, physical functioning, and fatigue. There was no dose response relationship found for the BFI and CES-D measures. No measured tumor regressions using RESIST criteria were noted." - Thomson Healthcare, Inc., PDR for Herbal Medicines, Fourth Edition (Get the book.)

"Noni uses extend to the urinary system for bladder and kidney infections, to the cardiovascular system for hypertension, and to the endocrine system for the treatment of diabetes. In fact, because of its ability to stimulate production of xeronine, noni has been used for practically any and every condition one can think of. Noni fruit juice extract is the most commonly available form. The best-quality noni supplements are made from the unripened green fruit." - Michael Tierra, The Way of Herbs (Get the book.)

"Other common names are canary wood, large-leaved mulberry, noni fruit, nonu or pain killer tree. Origin & history The tree is indigenous to India, Southeast Asia and the Pacific region. It is a traditional source of food and medicine in India and especially in Hawaii, where the fruit is known as noni. The fruits were used as a famine food on Pacific islands but were also a staple food of choice in Samoa and Fiji. Parts used Ripe fruits or fruit juice.

"Near the entrance is the noni: a lumpy, gnomish fruit that smells like dirty socks. It's also called the vomit fruit, says Love, but some people think it cures cancer. It can't be eaten raw because it's too tough; but in juice form, it became the locus of a health craze that swept through the diet-obsessed 1990s. A dog follows us through the orchard, eating fallen mangoes. At the house, Schattauer points out a large orange tree. It's the first orange tree in Hawaii, he says, brought here by Captain Vancouver from Valencia in the eighteenth century." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.) "Tahitian noni juice nabbed thousands of suckers in the 1990s, until the scheme fell apart. Today, eight bottles of Mon-aVie agai juice?the authentic solution for humanity"—sell for $298. Never mind that it's a blend of nineteen fruits (mainly apple juice), or that pure fair trade organic Sambazon agai juice can be purchased at grocery stores for $3.50 a bottle. Yet another addition to the MLM's roster is XanGo mangosteen juice." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)

"The dose of noni is one or two ounces daily, but may need to be increased to three or four ounces daily for serious conditions. Noni can be obtained from Brower Enterprises 800- 373 6067 and from our Natural Health Team 800-416-2806. Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy The use of intravenous hydrogen peroxide therapy nearly ceased with the advent of antibiotics, which is unfortunate. In 1920 Doctors Oliver and Cantab reported in Lancet about their experiences in treating pneumonia with intravenous hydrogen peroxide." - James A. Howenstine, A Physician's Guide to Natural Health Products That Work (Get the book.) "He feels that the healing properties of noni are due to this alkaloid precursor, which appears to effect cancer, lower blood pressure, heal infections, relieve arthritis, lower blood sugar, and relieve pain. Twenty- five years ago, Dr. Heineke isolated the enzyme xeronine from bromelain. He discovered that xeronine is manufactured in small quantities in the human body and plays a critical role in the function of enzymes and proteins in the body. Xeronine is depleted under any kind of stress. The proneronine from noni was readily converted to xeronine by intestinal cells full of serotonin." - James A.

"These super foods include bee pollen, goji berries (also used in Chinese medicine), sea vegetables like dulse and nori, spirulina, noni juice, blue-green algae from Upper Klamath Lake, Pemvian maca, sprouts and wheatgrass juice. David Wolfe claims that the top three super foods, in terms of their association with longevity, are goji berries, royal jelly and cacao beans. There is controversy among raw fooders as to whether cacao is a healthful food or whether it is even possible to eat truly raw cacao due to its bitterness." - Susan E.

"Tracy suggests that, "Noni juice will help you to get rid of the disassociative state that comes from these drugs [Prozac? etc.]. That 'almost being in a dream state' that you feel in the withdrawal." She goes on to say that "It will help prevent mania. I have been amazed at what I have seen noni do with those who have gone manic because of these drugs."

"It is also an antioxidant, and improves mental clarity, memory, alertness, and concentration. 14. noni has been used in the Hawaiian Islands for years, for all types of ailments.

(1999), Dr. Tracy suggests that, "Noni juice will help you to get rid of the disassociative state that comes from these drugs [Prozac? etc.].

"He asks for noni when he worries that symptoms of mania may be beginning (only about twice in the last five years). Of course in my opinion he would be better off using small amounts of noni regularly while stopping smoking (which the noni would also help him accomplish) and being even more strict in his diet in order to avoid any feeling of impending mania. But what a contrast his experience is with the thousands of patients on these serotonergic medications who have had manic reactions and were led to believe they needed to remain on anti-manic medications for the rest of their lives." - Ann Blake Tracy, Ph.D., Prozac: Panacea or Pandora?

"For an excellent skin complexion, rub one or more of the following items against the skin two to four times a week: papaya pulp, avocado, cucumber, spirulina, fresh noni fruit and/or aloe vera. For dry skin, rub hempseed oil, jojoba oil and MSM lotion directly into the skin. This will alleviate dryness quickly. Or use avocado on the skin directly. Avocado oil is similar to our skin's oil." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"Using a multilevel regression analysis of noni dose (2, 4, 6, 8, 10 grams) and week of study, there was a statistically significant [t(35)=-2.84, p=.006] decrease in pain interference with activities.

"Noni (Morinda citrifolia) is a small tree that grows in Hawaii and other tropical regions. The fruit of this plant has a long history of use for a wide variety of problems, including joint problems, pain, inflammation, digestive problems, and cardiovascular disorders. Its active compounds include phytochemicals, designated anthra-quinones, enzymes, and alkaloids. • Echinaforce from Bioforce, USA. This is a liquid echinacea supplement that promotes natural disease resistance during the winter season and helps to maintain a healthy immune system. • Fibroplex from Metagenics." - Phyllis A.

"It is a traditional source of food and medicine in India and especially in Hawaii, where the fruit is known as noni. The fruits were used as a famine food on Pacific islands but were also a staple food of choice in Samoa and Fiji. Parts used Ripe fruits or fruit juice. Cultivation & harvesting Trees are mostly grown from cuttings and require warm, tropical conditions to thrive. Plantations have been established in Central America and Tahiti and the USA (mainly Florida and Hawaii) and the trees are also wild-harvested to some extent." - Ben-Erik van Wyk, Food Plants of the World: An illustrated guide (Get the book.)

"If raw cacao beans and noni were thrown into the mix I would probably say he was right. We can live for some time on seeded grapes and/or natural seeded raisins. Seeded grapes and natural Sun-dried, vine-ripened raisins with seeds are some of the most incredible foods on Earth. They have the sugar and the fat (the grape seed). Add that to the grape leaves (green-leaves), which come with the grape plant, and we could live on the grape plant alone for quite some time. I did actually eat primarily grape plants (leaf, fruit and seed) for a week once while camping after a horse ate my food." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"You may be more familiar with this plant's common name of noni (it is sold as a juice and in supplement form with dozens of unsubstantiated health-related claims). There is no research proving morinda can help aging skin in any way, but it does't appear to be a cause for concern either, at least when it comes to topical application. © $$$ Arovita C Line Response Cream ($110 for 1." - Paula Begoun and Bryan Barron, Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me, 7th Edition (Get the book.)

"To help alleviate this condition, after bathing, rub fresh aloe vera gel, fresh noni fruit, MSM lotion, coconut oil, avocado and/or papaya into the eczema every day. If you have eczema (dry skin and eruptions) consider at least 6 colonics initially to allow the body to detoxify through the colon, rather than through the skin. If colon hydrotherapy is not available, daily warm-water enemas while fasting on grapefruit juice will be helpful. A raw herbal cleanse, such as the EJUVA 30-day program, can work wonders for those with eczema as I have seen first hand several times." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"Solution? noni juice is on the list; the berries are not. Similarly with acai berries. Goji berries, on the other hand, are easy to find in health food stores and are loaded with nutrients. The juice is perfectly good as well, but way over-hyped (and overpriced); hence Goji berries yes, Goji juice, regrettably, no. Beverages That Deserve Their Own Entry The rest of the beverages presented no such "dual" personality problems. The only way to consume tea is to drink it; same with coffee." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth About What You Should Eat and Why (Get the book.) "Another study, in the Journal of Medicinal Food, found that a compound in the noni fruit stimulated the synthesis of collagen. The authors stated that this compound—an anthraquinone—was a good candidate as a new antiwrinkle agent. And antiinflammatory compounds have been isolated from the root of another member of the genus, the Morinda officinalis." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth About What You Should Eat and Why (Get the book.)
