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.
