Polynesians have been traditionally using noni to treat infectious disease due to its antibacterial power.3 Lab studies concur, finding that noni inhibited the activity of such bacteria as E coli and H pylori.4
Antitumor
Researchers at the University of Hawaii reported the antitumor activity of noni juice in terms of prolonging the life of animal subjects with lung cancer by up to 75%.5 Encouraged by these findings, these same researchers later performed another study, conclusively attributing tumor growth suppression to the immune-stimulating effects of noni.6
Pain Relief (Analgesic)
Researchers have found that noni has pain relieving and tranquilizing potential. 7 An extract of the fruit showed “significant, dose-related, central analgesic activity [which] validates the traditional analgesic properties of this plant.” 7 Noni fruit was even found to be 75% as strong as morphine, while being non-addictive and side effect free.7
Anti-inflammatory
One study proved that the anti-inflammatory effects of noni juice surpassed the effect of Celebrex, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is taken for pain and particularly arthritis.8 The key is that noni juice has stronger results – without side effects.
Anti-diabetic
Research has shown that noni fruit has anti-diabetic effects in that it lowered blood glucose levels, enhanced insulin sensitivity, and significantly decreased LDL (bad) cholesterol. 9 The conclusion was that noni “can be employed as a functional health food for type 2 diabetes management.9
Immunity
Antioxidants fight free radicals that lead to aging and disease and noni juice has been proven to have significant antioxidant activity.10 Plus a 1oz serving of our noni juice has 20% of your RDA of vitamin C, an antioxidant that protects the immune system and helps to fight off infections.11
100% pure and certified organic, our Noni Juice by Hawaiian Herbal Blessings is harvested and traditionally processed on the island of Maui. It is unpasteurized (unlike other noni juices out there), traditionally fermented and cold pressed from only certified organic, grade “A” ripe noni fruit. This traditional processing helps maximize the potentially active microorganisms and beneficial components for which noni is known. There are no preservatives, colors, water, sugar, fruit juice concentrates or other flavors added.Customer Review
