Joint Pain
Posted by Muriel (Durham, North Carolina) on 03/21/2007

From April 1998 until November 1999 I was so sick I felt I was slowly dying. ALL of my joints hurt. I was tired all of the time. I was tested for everything you could imagine. My GP sent me to a rhematolagist. She tested and tested and then literally through her hands up in the air and said she didn't know what was wrong with me. I just had an autoimmune disorder. My sister told me about Noni Juice. I drank 2 oz. a day and within days I began to feel better. After 2 weeks I was completely well. I almost forgot how bad I felt before then.
I alway have a friend who became ill last year. It was almost the same symptoms I had plus some others. The doctors did the samething too. They ruled out things but didn't know what it WAS. He finally passed out on the street one day and ended up in the hospital for 4 days. I told him to try Noni Juice. Hey, it couldn't hurt. He bought some and was completely well in 2 to 3 weeks.
We both swear by it. We both drank the Vitamin Shoppe brand. I've tried others and they didn't work as well. Also, I don't bother with other forms of Noni. I don't dilute it either. It won't cure everything and it doesn't always work for everyone but it does work.
High Blood Sugar

I've been taking about two shots of Noni juice for about a year now. I'm a diabetic with high blood sugar and was hoping it would help, it hasn't. But I do have more energy and feel better generally. I also haven't had a cold while others around me have. So I'm going to continue it for a while longer.

Good, unprocessed, noni juice ... is a good natural pain reliever. It is said to be a natural COX II inhibitor (like sour cherries). I have used it to increase the effectiveness of various OTC pain relievers for severe mentrual cramps and back pain. My husband swears by it (taken alone) for back pain. (He is more responsive to the effectiveness of pain relievers than I am). The only drawbacks are it's nasty taste plus it's cost if you consume a lot of it. I found that, for me, about 1/4 cup is a basic dose to start with but you can drink as much as it takes to get the benefit you want. It may be diluted with apple juice or water to make it more tolerable.

I take Noni in pill form and use it for pain and it works great. Just today I woke up very very early, with joint and shoulder pain. Two noni and some water and within a short time I felt relief and was back to sleeping well. Studies show that fish oil + noni + glucosamine chondroitin is 70% as effective as morphine for pain.
Skin and Bladder Infections

I was introduced to noni while living in Jamaica. I would get urinary tract infections and others infections living in the bush. I also had adopted a pup that was in terrible shape, close to death. She had open sores everywhere, her skin was crawling with fleas, she had worms and was also starving. A doctor friend told me to take it and I was shown by a dear Jamaican friend how to make it. It certainly took care of my problems and my pups. I gave my pup a good cleaning, dunked her in the ocean a few times, poured noni juice all over her body and poured it down her throat. She healed up in no time. She didn't look like the same pup, she was beautiful. I believe in the power of noni for sure. I don't live in the tropics anymore but I ordered some noni seeds so I could grow some myself. My husband and I are building a greenhouse and I want to grow some tropical plants in it. I ordered some noni seeds and they're just starting to peek thru the soil and I'm so excited! I read that it only takes 9-12 months for it to start fruiting! I hope all goes well. I also have some beautiful bird pepper plants I started from seed that I brought back from Jamaica. I never took noni on a regular basis, only when I got an infection while living in Jamaica. But if I can get mine producing fruit my husband and I will be taking it every day. He has a lot of arthritis and high blood pressure. I'm hoping he'll be able to get off his meds he's taking and just consume noni.
Multiple Benefits

Noni juice has proved to be a great help to me so far, I have been on it for a week, about 1 oz per day, Hawaii brand and I felt the Noni immediately affect my energy level in a positive way and it is helping my sinusitis, which was left over from a cold, and my fibromyalgia pain and osteoarthritis as well as my skin (acne) I am quite surprised that doctors don't tell people about this substance as it is worth a try if nothing else and no harm that I can tell. I will take it regularly until or if it does not help any more.
Joint Pain, Food Stuck in Throat
Posted by Ellen (Riverhead, New York, Suffolk County) on 11/11/2009

I started taking Noni about 4 yrs ago, for joint pain, which it has helped quite a bit . I didn't know it would help my other problem, which I had for years, food would get stuck in my throat! It had been so bad that I would only eat soft foods. It took about 3 months before I noticed the difference and it has been great ever since! You can find it cheapest on ___.com it does not HAVE to be from Tahiti to work, and at these prices I can afford to keep a supply in at all times. Yes it IS a bitter kind of taste, but I mix it with a shot of healthy blueberry or black cherry (organic) juice and it has a very nice taste. I also agree that if it IS a weed, Many herbs are also! Who cares, IT WORKS!!
Limping

Several years ago I shatter my femur in a horse accident. I recovered well but had a limp. 3 people who supported the healing properties of Noni Juice recommended I try. I did and am a true believer. Starting taking the recommended dose of 1 oz per day and literaly my limp was gone in about two weeks from beginning use. It is a good product and it is the only supplement I am committed to for life.

I am a healthy person and try Noni recommended by a friend. I drink Noni 1 oz every morning for a month and don't feel any better. In fact, I feel more tired and some tight feeling around my heard. I decide to stop drinking it eventhough I have ton of juice left. (I brought 2 gallons from healing Noni web site) I will post my feeling after stop using the Noni juice. Good luck for all those spending money on Noni.

I buy Noni Tea from the Asian Grocery shop; a product of Vietnam labled "Tra Tria Nhau" (Tui Loc); it's relatively inexpensive: $1.99 for 20 tea bags. The box shows a picture of noni fruit and leaves; side of box states "Morinda tea made from fresh Morinda and sweet herb". It is very light, refreshing and nice tasting.

i am 57 years old and have been suffering a myriad of health issues plus the graying of my hair roots. I take diabetic pill blood pressure pills cholesterol and thyroid medicine, I suffer tremedous bloatedness and acid burns. I have always taken noni juice in the past for bloatedness and it always helped me. Unfortunately I did not make it a routine as I feel better I stop, my acidity and bloatedness started back with a vengeance so I opted for the noni 100% again. I have been taking two ounces first thing in the morning and wait an hour to drink my tea. its a miracle I am off my diabetic pill since my blood level every morning ranges from 76 to 80. I eat normal but not sugary or white flour food. so I believe it has help in the last two months to reactivate my pancreas. my acidity has reduced a little and my bloatedness has decreased considerably. gods grace I hope to wean myself from the blood pressure medication. I hope my gray hair also reverses itself as sometimes I see few strands at the root turning a little blac. I cant say for sure if its wishful thinking I will just continue on this regimen. vitamin shop always have the noni juice on sale the pure one. Gnc has 20% discount every first seven days of the month. I belive its worth the try like anything faith and perseverance goes a long way and ones diet.

Hello, I'm a postgraduation student in biology major. In my country, the scientists from medicine faculty, my teachers researched the cancer inhibitor effects of noni fruit juice from Hawaii. They found that its effect is very powerful. Also its effect is very complex.It consists of xeronin and proxeronin enzymes fixing normal cells and fastening normal cell's proliferation. On other hand it prevents the proliferation of some tumor cells and metastasis. We see three ways about the effect.
1) The factors of tumor cells; VEGF, bFGF causing metastasis are prevented.
2) Immunity cells T and NKs are proliferated so they re able to interact with cancer cells to destroy.
3)It consists of some chemical compounds like damnacantal, antrakinon ehixh are effective on tumors.
Finally, it's so powerful as an after cure drug. And It supports the cure carried out. We re still researching and learning about its new effects and pathways. We hope the plant will reach to the respect deserving.

I used Noni for a while and did see improvements in my energy as well as it curving my appetite for sweets. Also, I am anemic and during my menstral cycle, I would have cramping and heaving bleeding. On the Noni Juice, I didn't even notice I was on my cycle. I see that people are purchasing juice from stores but the best and original is tahitian noni. The others are watered down.

★☆☆☆☆WARNING!
Noni juice was used to be very popular in Hong Kong due to its claim of many health benefits...but unfortunately, they are all false claims...verified and found out by the consumer council in HK. Sales of noni juice plummeted as a result. For readers here, do not buy noni juice for whatever health benefit they claim to have, they are all FALSE CLAIMS!!!
Joint Pain, Colds, Flu, Immune System Weakness

Joint pain, Colds Flu, General Immune system weakness I take 4+oz and 3 620 mg capsules on an empty stomach and wait 30 minutes before eating every day and have done for the past 7 years. A non-citrus fruit juice or water can be drunk before the 30 minutes is up. I noticed after starting Noni that I stopped having the onslaught of colds and flu each year. Once a year only, I would get a very mild version of whatever bug was going around and usually recovered quickly. My dentist even commented after examining my teeth, "You must have a really strong immune system!"He saw that a situation we had forgotten about for 18 months had not deteriorated one bit during that time. A 60+ contractor friend takes it every day so he can stay active and live without knee-joint pain after suffering with it throughout his 50's. My toddler grandson suffered when a cold turned into pneumonia and since we have been giving him 1 tsp a day and waiting 30 minutes (VERY IMPORTANT), he has not had any further complications from a cold. The original Polynesians so revered the healing qualities of NONI that they carried it with them on their 3,000 mile voyage to Hawaii. Hawaiian noni juice is generally considered to be the strongest. Big Island Noni...highly recommended.Cheaper if you order directly from them. If you can get past the smell (Remember...the stronger it smells, the stronger its effect!)as I do when I hold my nose and drink it, the taste is actually rather sweet. When I first started taking it, I noticed more energy and a lessened desire to smoke.

Noni juice gave me my life back! I had joint pain and horrible fatigue. I had to be on steriods just to live half way normal. The doctors said that I had an auto immune disease - they didn't label it as Lupus because the blood tests weren't quite right for that, but they said that they felt like I would eventually have full blown Lupus. A friend gave me some Noni juice (98% noni and 2% other fruit juice)and within 2 weeks I had my life back. I started off taking about 2 ounces in the morning and 2 ounces in the evening. That was 10 years ago. I have no symptoms of Lupus or any other auto immune disease. I still take Noni, but only about an ounce every day or every other day.
Lupus, Congestive Heart Failure

Lupus and Congestive heart failure: I have been taking noni juice and have not been hospitalized but two times since being diagnosed with CHF in 2004. I was told ALL of the hospital patients return every two to three months. Thanks noni. My doctors are mysified by my quick recoveries (both heart valves failed at the same time). I know besides GOD'S grace, it was the noni (2 oz. twice a day).
