My mom has been having a lot of health problems in the past few years. In her mid-70s, she gave up traveling and doing a lot of things that she enjoyed. Then she started taking care of herself. She exercised, drank lots of water, took her vitamins, stop stuffing herself with food, and she tried Noni Juice.
She came across Noni Juice on a cruise trip to Haiti. Now she buys it at Costco and swears by it. If she thinks it helps her feel better, why the heck not?
So what is this Noni stuff? It's a tropical fruit that is grown in the Pacific Islands, and is taken as a drink to enhance bodily function and support overall good health. It's been used for over 2,000 years in Polynesia, China, India and elsewhere and grows best wherever there is pollution free volcanic soil.
Botanically the fruit is called Morinda Citrifolia. It grows on a shrub type tree and the size of the fruit is about the same size as a medium avocado pear. The skin has warts on it similar to a pomegranate. The shrub shows fruit some 10 months after planting. It reaches maturity in about 18 months and then yields between 4 to 8kg of fruit every month, all year round.
Interestingly, the Cook Islands are the only region in the world that can claim to grown noni fruit organically. Cook Islanders call the fruit "none" not Noni. If you ever travel to the Cook Islands, you may see local people picking some None fruit from their shrubs.
If you are interested in organic Noni products, check out Nature's Products Noni Juice website. Not only do they have Noni juice, they also carry creams, lozenges, and lotions. They also claim their Noni products are of the highest possible quality and have no added fruit juice. They feel that Cook Island Noni Juice is very mild in taste, and if you don't like it, you can add your own fruit juice to it at less cost.
Do you take Noni Juice or any other kind of "folk remedy" for your health?
