*Noni: Polynesian's Natural Pharmacy*
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
(As a result of our last ezine we have received requests for
information about Noni: the health product your sponsors
promote. The comments in this review are quoted directly from
the booklet: "Noni: Polynesia's Natural Pharmacy" put out by
Pride Publishing of Vineyard, Utah.)
*What is Noni?*
Noni is the common Hawaiian name for Morinda citrifolia. ....The
plant indigenous to Polynesia, Malaysia, Australia, India, and
Southeast Asia, is a type of evergreen... Noni fruit is .....
...approximately the size of a potato..... .It has a long history
of effective medicinal use by natives.
*How has it been used by the natives?*
.....Polynesian .....healers effectively used the fruit's juice
to treat fevers, infections, diarrhea, constipation, asthma,
insect and animal bites, and many other ailments.
*How Has the Health Field Become Aware of It?*
Noni is receiving more and more attention from modern herbalists,
medical physicians, and high-tech biochemists. Scientific
studies within the last few decades lend support to the
Polynesians' claims of its unusual healing power.
*What Have Studies On the Noni Fruit Shown?*
There are many studies. Five of them show the following.
....In the 1990's, several published reports about the discovery
of a cancer-inhibiting compound called damnacanthal in noni have
heightened interest in the plant......A later study conducted at
the University of Hawaii showed similar positive results
regarding noni and its use as an *anti-cancer* agent.
.....Dr. Joseph Betz, a research chemist with the FDA's Division
of Natural Products Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition,
has said testing on the Morinda citrifolia fruit shows it induces an...
anti-histaminergic (or *anti-allergy*) effect.
..... Studies implicate Noni as a natural remedy that
lowers blood pressure, reduces joint swelling, stops internal and
external infections, clears up congestion, and even stops
pre-cancer cells from growing.
.....Researchers at the University of Hawaii have isolated the
compound scopoletin from the Morinda citrifolia fruit. It combines with
serotonin...and is thought to play a significant role in
activities such as sleep, temperature regulation, hunger, ...
sexual behavior. ...migraine headaches, depression, and even Alzheimer's disease.
.....Dr. Ralph Heinicke, a respected biochemist formerly at the
University of Hawaii, has dedicated himself to the study of
....xeronine. The Morinda citrifolia fruit contains very large amounts of
...pro xeronine.... It is the ability of the compound pro
xeronine found abundantly in noni which initiates the increased
production of xeronine which activates inactive proteins or
regulates the rigidity and shape of already active proteins. In
addition to the benefits from noni already mentioned other
reported physiological responses from the xeronine include: the
treatment of menstrual cramps, arthritis, gastric ulcers,
sprains, injuries, mental depression, senility, poor digestion,
atherosclerosis (blocked arteries) and drug addiction.
*How Is Noni Juice Being Used Today?*
Recorded modern uses in North America for the Morinda citrifolia fruit are widespread.
*Something To Think About*
Dr. Lendon Smith's family, he himself, and his regular clients
all give the credit to Noni for the significant health benefits
they have experienced since using it. Dr. Smith
enthusiastically endorses it.
