What
is Noni?
Noni is a tropical fruit with many medicinal properties. It is
found mainly in tropical Pacific islands, and has been used for
centuries by native islanders as their most important health remedy.
The prized Noni fruit contains beneficial enzymes, alkaloids and
other compounds that have been shown to stimulate the immune system
and aid in cellular regeneration.
For
what benefits is Noni best known?
Noni has been used in many traditional healing cultures to alleviate
a wide variety of symptoms, including those seen in arthritis,
immune problems, colds and flu, digestive disorders, injuries
and inflammation. Most of these benefits have been documented
in modern clinical literature. Noni’s benefits are due to the
combined actions of its many medicinal compounds
How
can you use Noni?
You can take Noni every day with your vitamins and minerals to
improve your overall vitality. Many people use Noni for joint
or muscle stiffness and inflammation. Noni can provide relief
of acute and chronic pain and headaches. Noni may also help if
you suffer from symptoms related to many organic diseases, including
fatigue, mood problems, indigestion, as well as male and female
disorders.
What
are the active ingredients in Noni?
Noni contains over 150 different compounds that work as a complex
team to balance and optimize our body’s functions. Some compounds,
such as scopoletin and damnacanthal, have been isolated and studied
individually. They have been documented to support the body in
regulating the immune system and blood pressure, assisting in
the defense against specific infections, and in many other activities.
Why
is harvesting so crucial to Noni’s benefits?
Unlike seasonal fruits that ripen simultaneously and may be harvested
all together at a particular time of year, Noni is a perennial
fruit that ripens individually. Because of this, Noni should
be harvested selectively, with each fruit picked individually
when it ripens. Noni that is harvested either prematurely or too
late will not contain the full amount of beneficial enzymes and
compounds that contribute to its numerous medicinal qualities.
Once its optimum ripeness has passed, Noni ferments or rots rapidly.
Earth’s Bounty does not use rotten Noni.
Where
is Earth’s Bounty Noni manufactured?
Noni grows well in tropical climates. Earth’s Bounty uses Noni
in the pristine climates of Hawaii and Tahiti. As with other
fruits, Noni should be grown in a good environment, free of pollution
and pesticides, then harvested selectively for optimum ripeness.
The source matters—differences between brands of Noni are likely
to be the result of many factors—environment, farming techniques,
harvesting methods, manufacturing processes and product formulation.
How
is Earth’s Bounty Noni processed?
As a tropical fruit, Noni is very “volatile”—the clock is ticking
as soon as it is ripe and picked. Other manufacturers may air-
or sun-dry the fruit after it is picked. This can create unwanted
bacteria and loss of potency, which is sometimes counteracted
by irradiation or fumigation with deadly chemicals. Earth’s
Bounty Noni is picked at optimum ripeness and processed to USA
health guidelines to ensure maximum freshness and potency of all
the beneficial enzymes and phytonutrients. Earth’s Bounty
Noni is never irradiated or fumigated.
Why
are some Noni juices flavored and others not?
Noni is a health drink and not meant to compete with typical fruit
juice drinks. Because Noni is not a naturally sweet fruit,
its taste is not appealing. Some people prefer it flavored,
others prefer it unflavored. We offer both flavored and
unflavored Noni as well as 100% Noni juice in capsule form. All
Earth’s Bounty Noni products are pure fruit juice. There are no
added sugars, preservatives, yeast, wheat, dairy, soy, artificial
colors or other inactive ingredients.
Is
the juice pasteurized?
Yes. Earth’s Bounty uses a flash-heating process.
The flash-heating technology meets USDA guidelines and is used
to ensure cleanliness and stability without preservatives.
Do
the capsules have the same potency as the juice?
Yes. Our capsules are 100% pure Noni juice, with only the water
removed. Once taken, capsules become mixed with fluids during
digestion. One capsule is equal to ½ ounce of juice and yields
similar results. Noni capsules are so effective, the U.S.
Government is conducting a study on them with cancer patients.
Can
Noni be taken with other medications?
Noni is a natural fruit, without chemicals to react with other
medications. One of the reasons Noni is considered a digestive
aid is because it improves absorption of nutrients, including
other supplements. Noni also works well for animals.
For questions regarding use of Noni with specific medical conditions,
please consult your health professional, especially one who is
knowledgeable about herbal products.
Does
Noni have side effects?
Side effects are not common with use of Noni. As with any product,
some people may experience a mild allergy, which is very rare.
For any questions or concerns, please consult with your Health
Care Professional.
What
is different about Earth’s Bounty Noni?
Everything. Earth’s Bounty Noni is made from the finest 100% Morinda
citrifolia. It is grown without pesticides, then selectively harvested
when each fruit is at optimum ripeness. It is never fumigated
or irradiated. We use only the fruit—never inferior parts of the
plant like the leaves or roots. All of our Noni products
are juices, without fillers or additives. Earth’s Bounty uses
“Good Manufacturing Processes” to preserve freshness and ensure
that you receive maximum potency of the beneficial compounds.
