History of Noni
Noni (morinda citrifolia) was generally
unknown to the western world until the last decade when Noni products began
to appear. Noni possesses a rich cultural history and it was one of the more
frequently used plants by natives. Polynesians have utilized Noni for thousands
of years. Traditional uses of the Noni plant are varied and virtually every
part of the plant is used for overall health, to lose weight and beautify the
skin.
When asked why Noni works, Polynesians readily admit
they do not know. A detailed analysis of Noni has revealed the incredible nutrient
composition of this remarkable plant. The analysis confirmed what Polynesians
have known all along - Noni is rich in health-promoting compounds such as antioxidants,
phytonutrients and bio-flavonoids. The Noni leaves and roots are sources of
complete protein, each having a full complement of essential amino acids. Each
part of the Noni plant contains a mixture of key vitamins and minerals including
Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Calcium, Magnesium and Zinc.
Over the last decade Noni has become a worldwide
health phenomenon and hundreds of thousands of people from around the world
have added their voices to the Polynesians' that Noni works!
