The absolute best noni plants are seen every ten feet almost here in the Caribbean, near the beach in the line of coconut palms and common almond trees.

Morinda citrifolia is a fruit-bearing tree in the best coffee family, Rubiaceae.

She is a wonderous and sacred plant with many uses. who has been known under the name the great morinda, cheese fruit, garbage fruit, among others many times in reference to the terrible smell the greyed, soft, ripe fruit gives off.

Her native range extends across Southeast Asia and Australasia, and the species is now cultivated throughout the tropics and widely naturalized.

She has an exclusive fruit fly associate Drosophila sechellia, who tends to the year-long flowering fruits. Weaver ants protect her from certain parasites and fruit bats also associate with the legendary go-to famine food. [AR1]

Place a noni leaf over machete wounds and hold on with a bandage to coagulate the wound faster. It has worked for me many times, it helps stop bleeding and the start of the natural blood clot and wound closure in minutes!

The leaves closest to the fruit hold more nutritional punch we have noticed in smoothies, and the fruit itself is interesting to deal with.

Australian Aboriginies eat the fruit whole with salt

The seeds are used to make a rancid smelling oil rubbed into hair and used as an insecticide or insect repellent.

Trunks are used as firewood and canoes and branches as ax handles and other tools.

Among Austronesian peoples, noni was traditionally used primarily for the production of dyes with bleed into the Pacific Islands as canoe plants by Austronesian voyagers.

Morinda bark produces a brownish-purplish dye that may be used for making traditional tapestries known as batik. In Hawaii, a yellowish material dye is created from the roots.

Modern treatments for issues including attention deficit disorder, addictions, allergies, arthritis, asthma, brain problems, burns, cancer, cardiovascular disease, chemical sensitivity, chronic fatigue, diabetes, digestive problems, endometriosis, fibromyalgia, gout, hypertension, immune deficiency and boosting, infection, inflammation, jet-lag, multiple sclerosis, muscle soreness, joint pain, polio, rheumatism, severed fingers, sinus, and veterinary medicine, also as many topical recipe ingredients. [AR2]

Leaves are also used sometimes to wrap meats for storage and while cooking. Papaya, ginger and noni leaf together for this purpose would be a good way considering the different advantages of each in meat storage and tenderization.

Pear, mango, and passionfruit are some favorite smoothie mixers to deal with fuerte mama noni.

Hopefuls see the potential for the best noni to usher in a movement of combating obesity.

NONI BENEFITS

Anti-diabetic properties prove valuable at a time where escalating trends of chronic diseases such as type-2 diabetes (T2D) have sparked a renewed interest in complementary and alternative medicine.

Given the fact that multiple components of natural products can act synergistically to impart a greater biological effect [core NDdiet idea] than any given single component, there is an urgent need to develop techniques to not only identify the complex chemical components of noni products but also establish a chemical or metabolite fingerprint for a specific biological effect. [1]

Relieves and cures dermatitis in animal testing. [2]

Recommended in the combat of obesity and functional, best noni supplementation in combination with exercise in combating overweight-ness. [3]

Reduces parasite count in Leishmaniasis infection, which are common here in the tropics. [4]

Morinda citrifolia (Noni), an important traditional medicinal plant still used in patients with bone fractures or dislocation to promote connective tissue repair and to reduce inflammation. However, the effects of Noni on bone metabolism to promote osteogenic differentiation especially in combination with collagen proteins are shown in examinations making noni a great candidate in treating and curing bone metabolism disorders. [5]

High in, antioxidants. anthocyanins, beta-carotene, catechins, coenzyme Q10, flavonoids, lipoic acid, lutein, lycopene, selenium, vitamins C and E, antioxidants help to reduce damage caused to cells due to oxidative stress.

Fights pain associated with tumors. The anthraquinones, naturally occurring phenolic compounds, have been found to possibly prevent glucose from entering tumor cells, preventing metastasis, and ultimately leads to cancer cell death.

Combats inflammation and boosts Immunity. Detoxification benefits due to the enzymes known as quinone reductase suggest that noni has great anti-inflammatory traits.

Help reduce cholesterol. Studies revealed much lower cholesterol levels and triglycerides after consuming noni.

It provides for cellular repair. It contains colorless alkaloids, and alkaloids are critical in maintaining a healthy balance in the body.

Prevents parasitic disease. Noni has a rich chemical composition that has been shown to fight parasites with the phenolic and aromatic compounds it contains.  [6]

Treats burns / “heat shock.” [7]

Signs point to liver protection and respiratory system enhancement to include lung repair from smoking. [8]

The antifungal cancer treatment activity in fermented noni has been evaluated and suggested for trials in treating various forms of cancer. [9]

The famine fruit has provided intensive relief and treatment to colitis patients and in maintaining or rebuilding the integrity of the stomach mucous lining – an important piece to digestive function. [10]

NONI SIDE EFFECTS

Noni is safe and people have taken concoctions and eaten fresh most of the plant.

With anything new start slow to asses tolerance and possible allergic response.

A cool study was done comparing the results in young people, energy drinks and noni juice to determine the effect of acute consumption of noni and chokeberry juices vs. energy drinks on blood pressure, heart rate, and blood glucose.

Thus, consumption of EDs may induce an adverse impact on human health, whereas juices rich in polyphenols may play a beneficial role, especially by decreasing arterial blood pressure and blood glucose.

The study demonstrated that acute consumption of noni juice contributes to a significant decrease in both systolic and diastolic blood pressures as well as heart rate in young healthy adults. Moreover, NJ caused a slight decrease in blood glucose.

In the end, noni juice is a much healthier energy drink than current mostly taurine based energy drinks in the market place and do not cause potential adverse effects as many ingredients on the market product shelf do.  [x]

NONI EXPERIENCE

The following Experience was offered by Dylan Brown just before taking a one year seat as the president of my personal fan club! Just kidding buddy hope you’re doing well – enjoyed hearing the Bocas stuff, thanks for that.

So I first became interested in the noni fruit when I was living on a farm in Costa Rica that had a noni tree on it. The owner of the farm was giving me a tour of all of the fruiting trees on his property when he stopped in front of a broad-leafed tree with about 50 whitish/clear fruits growing on it. The words he spoke were: “this one is called the noni fruit. It’s a medicinal fruit, apparently the cure-all for everything, highest antioxidant content. They say it’s an anti-cancer agent. You can make it into a juice and drink it.”

I ended up spending three and a half years in Costa Rica on that excursion. Just working and living on farms. I even helped to start an organic farmer’s market.

I really was interested and wanted to learn more about this noni fruit and how to prepare it. I spent three and a half years trying to perfect this process and thought that I had. That was until one day when I was at the farmer’s market talking to a woman that was an expert with noni.

I told her that I was making it into a juice. Just squeezing and straining the soft ripe nonis through a basket, then adding sugar and sour Mandarina citrus juice to it.

I thought that I had done it. I’ve officially figured out how to prepare what is touted as the healthiest food on the planet. What she said to me was this: “well that’s good and healthy medicinal stuff too, but if you really want to achieve superfood status, and get the most nutritional value, then you will have to add fermentation to the process.”

Now, I do have some experience with making beer and wine, and how that fermentation process works by adding the yeast that you buy at the store to the liquid and at first I thought that this is what she spoke of. But then she explained further, “what you have to do is that you have to let a small amount of mold to form on the outside of the fruit and that mold is what activates the fermentation of the noni fruit.”

Interesting I thought. I had never heard of this before, and any other time that I tried to make noni juice, I had thought that if they had formed a mold on the outside of the fruit that meant that the fruit was just more fodder for the organic compost.

It turns out though, that in reality, this is actually when the noni fruit is at it’s most valuable. And that’s what most people do not know about the noni fruit.

Right after I was told by this woman at the farmer’s market about the right way to prepare the noni by fermentation is also when I happened to have to leave Costa Rica and fly back to the US.

While in the US I kept wondering and wondering about how to do it better next time.

I spent three and a half years preparing the noni wrong and was not achieving full nutritional and medicinal potential the whole time. And I didn’t even know. Sheesh.

Then my next go at it finally came when I flew to Panama a few years later. I found me a good ‘ol noni tree at the side of a road and started plucking the half-ripe noni fruits off of it.

This time I paid very close attention to the fruits, and let them set in a bowl until every fruit had what looked like whitish/yellow hair growing from the skin of the fruit as if it had started to “rot.”

This is when most people would think that the fruit needs to be composted. However, in reality, this is when the noni fruit is at it’s prime and it’s most valuable. I never would have thought it either.

So right when the fruit gets the mold is when you squeeze and crush up the fruit, and just leave the mash and the mold all together in an airtight container. And sure enough, the mashed fruit did start to ferment.

The fermentation process takes a few days or a week, or more depending on how much fermentation you want to take place (and yes it does become an alcoholic beverage too.) If you keep adding sugar and letting the fermentation go for longer, the more alcoholic the beverage will become. You know when it is fermenting because it is producing bubbles as the live yeasts from the living mold eats the sugars.

But this fermentation is also actually what adds more nutritional and medicinal value to the finished product, and what makes it into what is classified as a “superfood.” My “aha!” moment had arrived!

I figured out my favorite flavor and way to prepare the noni. I just added a few chopped apples and sugar to the fermenting noni fruit, and then let it all ferment down together for about a week and a half.

The final product actually looked and tasted very similar to bubbly champagne, but with far more nutritional and medicinal health benefits than champagne, or even red wine for that matter.

I hope that this bit has increased your knowledge about noni and it’s preparation so you don’t spend three and a half years preparing noni with fewer health benefits too. Go ahead and give it a try.

Your body will thank you.
