Imagine an exotic tropical island paradise
that exists deep in the South Pacific, where the water, the air,
and the land is still pristine.
This island paradise is known
as French Polynesia. The most well-known of all of the French Polynesian
islands is the island of Tahiti.
On these
islands, a very special plant grows in abundance. This plant
is known to us by its botanical name of “Morinda citrifolia”.
The native Polynesians, however, know it simply as “Noni”, which
when translated means "A Gift from God".
Although it may be new
to us, it is not really new at all. It has been highly valued
in Asia, India, and the South Pacific for thousands of years! As the ancient native Polynesians
colonized islands throughout the South Pacific they brought with
them their most prized plants from
their home islands. These plants provided food,
construction materials, and natural medicines. Perhaps the
most important of these plants is known as Morinda citrifolia, or
noni.
Ancient manuscripts
handed down from generation to generation described the many
valuable uses for this unique plant. They used the seeds,
the bark, the roots, the leaves, the blossoms, and the fruit.
While the fruit was used mainly for health and beauty, it also
served as a sustaining source of food and nutrition during times
of famine.
Morinda
citrifolia is also one of the most beautiful plants
on the islands with its large dark green shiny leaves
and its creamy white flower blossoms. The plant
reaches heights of 15-20 feet! The Morinda
citrifolia plant yields fruit all year round. On every branch
of every plant, there are many fruit in various stages of
development, so the fruit must be checked and harvested
regularly. The
mature fruit is green and measures about the size of a potato.
When the fruit is ripe, it turns yellowish-white and becomes very
soft and aromatic.
The native Polynesians
have been harvesting and preparing their own "noni juice" and other
noni "remedies" for centuries. Now many of these ancient
traditions preserved for centuries are now being verified by science! They harvest the fruit
just before it is fully ripe and then place it in a jar in the direct
sunlight. Once the fruit is fully ripe, it is mashed into a
puree and the juice is extracted through a cloth.
So, noni
isn't new - it's just new to us! Now, in modern times, it has
attracted the attention of botanists, scientists, researchers and
medical professionals around the world! And now, thanks to
Tahitian Noni International, millions of people around the world are benefiting
from this amazing miracle from paradise!
