Any NONI juice drinkers here??
I ran across some Noni juice at my local Costco but didn't buy any as I wanted to do a little research first. Claims from one website include:
Noni advocates say it can be used for several conditions and to achieve many goals: increasing energy, lessening allergy symptoms, improving asthma, losing weight, improving arthritis and diabetes, decreasing pain (including headache pain) and to lessen symptoms of cancer, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis and stroke. The advocate who contacted me claimed it was safe to take with all medicines, even, she specifically pointed out, blood pressure medicines.


SO I want to know if anyone here drinks this stuff?? Is it truely as good as they write about??

1. Let me ask you something
How many THOUSANDS of products have been advertised with the same set of grandiose claims applied to Noni?

Did any of them work?

On one hand, there's a better than even chance that the stuff probably will not kill you. On the other, there's a very high probability that it's no more effective than orange juice, although it tastes like week-old shit.

2. I use the Morinda brand.
It's great for inflammation and balancing blood sugar.

Glacial Milk, Noni complete. He swears by it. But, now Sam's doesn't sell it anymore. My husband says it helps his digestion. He is
lactose intolerant and the poor guy can't eat anything with milk products at all, but the Noni seems to help if he inadvertently easts something with dairy.

Edit: typo

4. Yep. People who swear by it would kill rather than give it up.

I don't know why you're visiting Sam club unless there's not a Costco nearby..

I believe I'll have to try this stuff myself to believe its claims..
