Questions
What
Health Concerns Does Noni Benefit?
The
only information I can report is that noni works on the cellular
level, which means it can have a beneficial effect on the entire
body. To be more specific, research has identified over
150 beneficial neutraceutical compounds in the noni fruit,
including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, and
other important compounds that are currently the focus of
intensive research.
For
more specific information, there are many books, booklets, and
tapes that have been published by doctors, researchers, and
individuals with extensive knowledge and experience with noni.
Many of these books and booklets can be purchased through
Amazon.com, while others must be purchased directly from the
publisher. Please contact me for ordering information.

If
Noni is so beneficial, why haven't we heard about it before?
The
Morinda citrifolia plant grows in parts of India, Asia, and the
South Pacific, where its Native people have recognized and
benefited from its amazing health and beauty benefits for over
2,000 years.
For
the past 80 years, over 33,000 research papers and articles have
been published on Morinda citrifolia, yet no one was willing to
devote millions of dollars to bring it to the market, except Tahitian
Noni International. (top)
How
can a fruit juice produce such a wide range of beneficial
results?
Let
us not forget that we did not create this amazing fruit - we
simply discovered it and put it into a bottle so that millions
of people around the world could benefit from its amazing
properties. Its creator designed this fruit to have an
abundance of beneficial properties that affect our bodies in
many miraculous ways. And I do not doubt that there are
other such plants on our earth that we have not yet discovered
that are also beneficial to the body.
It may help to know that the noni works at
the cellular level, and since our entire makeup consists of
different types of cells, it can have a beneficial effect on the
entire body. To be more specific, research has identified
over 150 beneficial neutraceutical compounds in the noni fruit,
including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants.
Scientists are continually discovering new beneficial elements
found in this amazing little fruit!

and Quality
Why
did Tahitian Noni International introduce TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice in juice form?
Obviously,
it would have been much easier, more convenient, and less
expensive to formulate a powdered or encapsulated product.
However, Tahitian Noni Internationals main concern was quality, not convenience.
In
fact, Tahitian Noni International's experienced research team spent 3 years and
millions of dollars on research and development to bring a
superior noni product to the market. Based on their
research and over 2,000 years of historical evidence, it became
evident that the only way to bring the noni to the market would
be in its pure, unadulterated form - the way the natives had
used it for thousands of years.
Tahitian
Noni International recognized that by having the product in juice form, it would
not only allow them to retain the critical elements responsible
for producing the beneficial results, but it would also allow
the body to readily utilize all of those elements.

What
are the ingredients of TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice?
There
are only 3 ingredients in TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice - Morinda
citrifolia Fruit Puree, Organic Grape Juice, and Organic
Blueberry Juice. The flavoring accounts for only 11% of
the content of the juice and is necessary to cover the offensive
taste of the noni fruit. TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice contains no
preservatives, fillers, artificial flavoring, coloring, or
additives of any kind.
(top)
What
is the shelf life of TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice?
TAHITIAN
NONIŽ Juice is packaged in high-quality recyclable glass
containers to achieve a shelf life of 18-24 months, perhaps
longer, if unopened. If opened and refrigerated, the life
of the product is approximately 3 months.
Since
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice contains no preservatives, it must be
refrigerated after opening to preserve the taste and quality.
(top)
If
I travel, can I take it with me, even if it will not be
refrigerated?
Many
people who are enjoying the benefits of TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice want
to continue to do so when they travel. In fact, it is
especially important to have TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice with you when
you travel, as you are often exposed to new elements that your
system is not accustomed to.
In
most cases, it has been necessary to leave the product un-refrigerated
for a period of time until they reach their destination.
There have been no reported negative effects from doing so,
except for the decline in taste due to the lack of preservatives
in the product.
In
the past, travelers used a hotel ice bucket to keep TAHITIAN
NONIŽ Juice cold once they reached their destination.
However, now many travelers prefer our TAHITIAN NONIŽ Handi-Packs
due to their small, convenient size and packaging. Each
Handi-Pack comes in a soft juice pack with a re-closable top and
contains 8 ounces of TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice. Their convenient
size allows you to slip them into a backpack or a purse.
With these TAHITIAN NONIŽ Handi-Packs, you never have to be
without TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice! (top)
Is
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice tested for safety and purity?
Yes,
in fact, no other product is put to the rigorous testing that
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice is. Tahitian Noni International uses independent
nationally recognized laboratories, such as Corning Hazelton, to
rigorously test TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice for over 400 types of
contaminants. Just a few of those tests include Gamma
Isotope Screening, Heavy Metal Contamination, FDA PAM 410 Fruit
& Vegetable Multi-residue Screening, and a Yeast, Mold and
Bacteria Screening. These tests assure that TAHITIAN
NONIŽ Juice is safe and free from all contaminants!
Thermal
Processing, or Pasteurization, allows Tahitian Noni
International to avoid the use
of harmful preservatives, and ensure that TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice is
safe for everyone to consume! In fact, as of November 5,
1999, if any juice is not pasteurized, the FDA now requires that
the juice carry a warning label that reads (although there are
few noni juice companies that comply):
"This
product has not been pasteurized and, therefore, may contain
harmful bacteria that can cause serious illness in children, the
elderly, and persons with weakened immune systems." 21 CFR
101.17(g)(2)(ii).
You
will never see this warning on TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice!
While
some enzymes are de-natured in this process, Dr. Ralph Heinicke
assisted Tahitian Noni International scientists in developing a proprietary
thermal treatment process designed to allow for thermal
treatment while maintaining the integrity of the juice and its
critical elements.
Competitors
often attempt to mislead consumers by stating that
pasteurization destroys the noni's critical elements.
However, if that were really true, millions of consumers around
the world would not be experiencing life-changing results from
consuming TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice, and Tahitian
Noni International would not have
accomplished an unprecedented sales record of $1 billion in
sales in only 5 years! (top)
Does
Tahitian Noni International purchase their noni from another source?
No.
Unlike other companies, Tahitian Noni International prides itself on the fact that
they control the process from the tree to the bottle and every
step in between. This allows them to ensure that every
bottle of TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice is consistently of superior
quality.
Tahitian
Noni International's
process begins when the fruit is harvested. Tahitian Noni
International even
holds certification courses for the individuals who harvest the
fruit. Only once they pass this course are they authorized
to harvest fruit for Tahitian Noni International.
Once the fruit is
harvested, it undergoes a rigorous four-step quality control
process. First, the picker inspects the fruit to ensure
that it meets Tahitian Noni International's high standards for ripeness and quality.
Next, this process is repeated before the fruit is transported
to Tahitian Noni International's processing facility on the main island of Tahiti.
When the fruit arrives at the docks in Tahiti, it is inspected
and approved a third time. Finally, when the fruit arrives
at the processing facility, it receives a final inspection.
At each stage of this process, fruit that does not match
Tahitian Noni International's standards is eliminated, leaving only the highest
quality Morinda citrifolia fruit remaining.
Tahitian Noni
International's
processing plant in Tahiti is a state-of-the-art facility
designed to produce the highest quality TAHITIAN NONIŽ products.
As the fruit is processed, the preliminary result is a very
thick Noni puree resembling very thick applesauce. This
puree is extensively tested to ensure that it is free of any
impurities or microorganisms. Then it is placed in aseptic
containers for shipment to our processing facility in Southern
California.
Upon arrival in
California, samples of the puree are carefully tested once again
before the final stage of production. Then Tahitian Noni
International's
exclusive flavoring system of clean and pure fruits is added
along with purified water to achieve the flavor and final
consistency for TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice.
Once the bottling
process is complete, each bottle receives an individual quality
assurance number. This allows Tahitian
Noni International to trace each bottle
back to the batch, the island, and even the harvester
involved in the production of that bottle.

Does
it work for everyone?
Overall,
statistics show that 9 out of 10 people benefit from drinking
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice. However, doctors who are more
experienced with the use of TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice believe that
EVERYONE would get results if they drank enough of it and drank
it long enough. In addition, they have found that the
longer individuals drink TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice, the greater the
results. For these reasons, they recommend that everyone
make a commitment to drink TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice for at least 90
days. (top)
When
I can expect to notice results?
Everyone
is unique - some people will notice a difference immediately,
while others will take longer to experience the benefits of
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice. (top)
How
much should I drink and can I drink too much?
The recommendation printed on the bottle of
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice
is one ounce per day. (top)
Are
there any instructions on how should I drink TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice?
As
stated above, TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice is a natural food
supplement. (top)
Can
I mix TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice with other beverages?
To
derive the full benefit from drinking TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice, it is
better to consume it as is. However, if an individual
finds the taste unpleasant, it is better to mix it with another
juice than to not consume it at all. Grape juice masks the
taste of the noni fruit better than most juices. (top)
Does
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice have any side effects?
No
side effects have been reported by healthcare professionals,
their patients, or consumers.
As
a side note, the Noni Fruit itself, NOT our product, was studied
by the FDA and US Military and still appears on their GRAS List
(Generally Regarded as Safe) for GI's to use while stationed in
the South Pacific during WWII.
(top)
Will
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice affect my medications?
TAHITIAN
NONIŽ Juice does not have any contraindications. There have
been no reports of any interactions with medications.
(top)
Do
I still have to take my other nutritional supplements?
While
TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice does contain a tremendous amount of
nutritional benefits, taking other nutritional supplements along
with TAHITIAN NONIŽ Juice actually enhances the benefits of both.
They work synergistically in the body.
