When walking past Noni trees, it's hard not to notice the peculiar shape of a Noni fruit. They are prickly, bumpy, and thrive in Hawaii's rich volcanic soil. I have only recently started to take Noni as a supplement after hearing the remarkable makeup of this funny looking fruit. I decided to try it after reading "Force of Nature," by Laird Hamilton (one of the world's greatest big-wave surfers). After reading that Laird takes Noni ... I decided to take Noni too. (Ha! Ha!) I mean here is a guy who surfs gigantic waves and has to be in peak condition, so if this helps him- I'm game.
I have to admit, even just a sip is really strong and tastes horrible. I mix it with water or juice and swallow it down. The benefits are extraordinary, it has a strong medicinal alkaloid called proxeronine that aids damaged cells in healing. Noni has also been known to purify blood from toxins, help digestion, and make your immune system stronger. The brand I take is Hawaiian Herbal Blessings from Haiku, Maui. If you have ever been to Haiku, then you know how beautiful and lush it is! Their Noni is 100% pure and organic with no other juices or fillers and is fermented for 3 to 4 months before pressing following a 2000 year old Hawaiian tradition (I like that part). They also sell amazing smelling Noni lavender soap!


















I heard about noni before they make fruit leather out of noni too. Can you drink it like juice?
ReplyDeleteI had a post about my boy's flaky ears. I used a product I found at D2E, 'Organic Lavender NONI lotion', and now his ears are almost 100%. I was happy to find an organic, safe-if-licked-off-by-the-other-dog, topical product for pets there. It was only $9.99 and saved me a trip to the vet! :D
ReplyDeleteYes, Noni is great for pets. I have more info on noni that I will post later this week:)
