This Fruit Has Extraordinary Health Benefits by kenlincagro: 4:51pm On Mar 13, 2015 |
NONI FRUIT scientifically known as Morinda Citrifolia, is a small, flowering shrub native to the Pacific Islands, Polynesia, Asia and Australia. It grows to a height of up to 10 feet and the leaves are dark green and oval shaped. The flower heads grow to become mature yellow fruit that have a strong odour. Other common names for Noni include hog apple, canary wood, beach mulberry, Indian mulberry, cheese fruit, great morinda and mengkudu, depending on the locale. This member of the coffee family is native to Malaysia and harvested for its leaves, roots and fruit. The two main iridoid glycosides in this plant are asperulosid and deacetylasperuloside. *Prevents and protects against cancer: Noni exerts a preventative and protective action against cancer during the initiation stage, which is the first phase of the formation of the cancer. Many feel antioxidant activity is an important function of noni juice and one of the reasons so many people have reported success with cancer while using the juice. There are more than 300 alternative therapies for cancer and Noni is supposed to stand among the top ten. *Alleviates symptoms of arthritis: There are several ways in which Noni alleviates the undesirable symptoms of arthritis. Pain is the number one complaint with arthritis. Because Noni has analgesic qualities, it can help relieve this pain. Noni has also been shown to contain scopoletin, which has anti-inflammatory and histamine-inhibiting effects, both of which are excellent for the promotion of smooth joint movement. The cellular-enhancing qualities of Noni may also minimise damage to the joints and other involved tissues. *Fights heart diseases: Noni juice can help with high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke. Some scientists believe that Xeronine can help promote a healthy cell structure within the circulatory system. Noni juice can also lessen the symptoms of heart disease. *Noni juice Lowers high blood pressure: In a research study, 85 per cent of Noni juice drinkers reported decreased blood pressure while drinking Noni juice. *Strengthens the immune system: Noni juice boosts the overall immune system of the body and helps to maintain optimal health. Noni helps modulate a healthy immune system by either enhancing an already functioning system, by stimulating the components of a sluggish one, or by decreasing an overactive immune system. The mechanism by which Noni can do these different functions is called adaptogenisis. *Reduces symptoms of fibromyalgia: Many people who suffer from fibromyalgia experience loss of energy. An increase in energy from Noni is a very positive side effect from the juice. Seventy seven per cent of people with fibromyalgia reported lessened symptoms after they began drinking Noni juice. *Fortifies cell structure: Noni is believed to fortify and maintain cell structure. This can be accomplished by Noni helping the body heal itself and because Noni can aid “sick” cells in repairing themselves. *Helps control diabetes: Noni can aid in the regulation of insulin secretion by the pancreas, helping control diabetes. Drinking Noni also help relieve diabetic symptoms through its ability to stimulate the body’s production of nitric oxide. Both may also be important factors in decreasing symptoms such as poor circulation and vision problems. *Reduces Symptoms of Asthma: Noni help in reducing the severity of the symptoms of asthma by boosting and modulating the immune system and enhancing the cellular structure of the bronchioles. *Fights Depression: Noni’s ability to modulate natural bio-chemicals, such as brain hormones, might be why many people have felt less depressed after drinking Noni juice. *Promotes weight loss: Noni helps you lose weight by promoting better sleep, aiding in the regulation of blood sugar levels, and by boosting the number of antioxidants in the body. *Helps control Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): Noni may be helpful for this condition in both children and adults through its ability to modulate the production of some of the chemicals in the brain, as well as increase overall cellular health in the brain. *Helps treat migraines: Preliminary results show that there is a non/serotonin relationship. Studies suggest that noni juice was clinically helpful in the treatment of migraines. *Successful in the treatment of addictions: Noni juice has been said to be successful in the treatment of addictions to heroine, cocaine, marijuana, nicotine, alcohol, prescription drug use and caffeine. *Protects against strokes: Noni help inhibit premature coagulation in the blood, preventing platelets form clumping together into clots associated with strokes. *Lowers cholesterol: Noni is a potent free radical scavenger that can contribute to lower cholesterol levels and prevent LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) from oxidising. *Increases memory: Noni can be used by the brain to encode long-term memory and enhance blood flow to the brain. *Strengthens the nervous system: Noni functions as a “messenger molecule” that may allow nerve cells in the body and the brain to communicate effectively. *Improves skin condition: Noni can be used topically. Its anti-inflammatory and histamine-inhibiting effects can help fight allergies, skin conditions and inflammation.

This fruit seems to be able to do a lot. My question is how is it of use if it can't be found in Nigeria? |
