noted
to be a balancing agent, stabilizing the body
in perfect health. When the time came for the
brave explorers of the sub-continent to leave
their old world behind and despite the limited
space in their canoes, they took noni with them
as an essential element in the establishment of
their new island paradise.
When Europeans began exploring the islands of
the South Pacific in the late 1700s, they made
note of the use of noni among the native people.
Captain James Cook's own journals make mention
of his observation of the island natives using
noni .
During World War II, U.S. soldiers based on Polynesian
islands were instructed in their field manual
that noni was recognized as a safe food staple
to eat to sustain their strength.
Today, millions the world over are discovering
the health balancing properties of this once hidden
island secret.
Noni is "one of the Pacific's most important
medicinal plants, with the roots, bark, leaves,
terminal buds, and fruit used to treat a wide
range of maladies." [3] Noni fruit
juice is in high demand as a alternative
medicine to treat various illnesses or maintain
health.
