Mention “noni” (Morinda citrifolia) to anyone who has tasted the fermented fruit, and the conversation is over. Some people would rather die than have to ingest fermented — a polite word for ‘rotten’ — noni juice, regardless of the well-supported claims of miraculous healing attributed to this humble fruit.
Hawaiian people put noni fruit in a jar, where they let it liquefy and ferment in the sun for a few days. They sip the resulting juice and even bring it to their loved ones battling serious diseases in the hospital. Despite knowing this, after experiencing the disgusting smell and taste I completely rejected it.
So what if noni was one of the 24 original ‘canoe’ plants that the Polynesians regarded highly enough to bring with them in their 2000 mile-long open sea voyage from the Marquesas’ islands around 400 A.D., which led to their discovery of the Hawaiian islands, the most remote land mass on the planet? So what if it is the most highly revered healing plant of the Kahunas (healing priests of Hawaii), truly the greatest ‘superfood’ in the world? It still tastes terrible!
Some people, appreciating the healing virtues of certain herbs, are inclined to disregard the often nasty taste of them when in need of healing.
Noni juice has been touted and sold throughout the health supplement market in North America but this has been subjected to high pasteurization, killing off many of its live enzymes and is so highly diluted with fruit juice to be of negligible value, despite the claims.
But there is one way you can take bio active noni and not have to stomach the vile taste and flavor: in the form of a fruit leather made from fresh unfermented tree ripened, deseeded, noni fruit.
Well, considering the great herbal healing tradition of the Chinese people, there’s probably more to fermented noni than meets the eye. But the fact is that fresh noni not only tastes better, it’s far better for you.
Noni is very effective for Anti-inflammation,Cancer, Diabetes,Pain Relief.
