Top 7 Benefits Of The Noni Juice

Analgesic
Noni is a natural pain killer. It is known to be just as effective as most of the over the counter medicines that we buy like hydrocortisone and tramadol. It is known to drive away headaches, pain in the joints caused due to arthritis etc.

Boosting The Immune System
Consumptionof noni juice leads to the activating of the macrophages. It also strengthens the immunity of the body which in turn gets strong enough to fight away some harmful bacteria like the staphylococcus aureus and also the Escherichia coli.

Sedative/Antidepressant
Serotonin and melatonin gets stimulated by some compounds present in the noni juice. Serotonin affects the sleep, emotion and also the mood of the body. Imbalance in the levels of the serotonin may lead to depression. Melatonin is known to regulate the circadian rhythm of the body which helps in getting a good night’s rest and also improves the mood.

Hair Care/ Skin Care
The scalp and skin conditions such as ringworm problem or even eczema can be overcome by the properties of the noni juice. It can also be rubbed over the scalp to get some lustrous hair. It also helps in keeping the skin young and healthy. The nails also are known to get stronger if you consume the juice regularly.

Anti – Cancer
The production of the nitric oxide is stimulated by the noni. It is known to help in reducing the growth of tumour and hence is considered to be a strong anti – tumour agent. It also has an immunomodulatory polysaccharide which also fights the cancerous cells. In case the cancerous cells are already present in the body then the compounds present in the noni juice may help in slowing or even reversing the process of multiplication of the cancerous cells completely.

Hypertension
Vitamin C, Selenium and phytonutrients found in the noni juice is known to reverse the damage caused by the free radicals on the walls of some blood vessels. Scopoletin may also help in lowering the blood pressure. It is basic in nature and hence may help in preventing the bodily fluids from turning very acidic.

Control Blood pressure
The proxeronine found in noni is required to produce the compound xeronine which in turn might help in coordinating the functions of the different cells of the body. These cells work together to lower stress and also the blood pressure. Amino acids and tryptophan are found in this fruit. This tryptophan gets in the blood stream and stimulates the cells to produce an even greater quantity of serotonin and hence helps in controlling the blood pressure of the body.

Cholesterol
The absorption of the harmful cholesterol LDL is prevented by noni and hence the chances of the formation of plaque in the arteries are reduced. This allows these arteries to remain healthy and strong and hence it may help in extending the life span of an individual.

Benefits Of Using The Noni Juice

Indian mulberry, hog apple, mora de la India, wild pine, ruibarbo caribe, meng koedoe, morinda are just some of the names given to the noni fruit.
Introduction
The noni is an evergreen tropical tree which grows in Tahiti, Pacific Islands, Caribbean, South America, Australia and also Asia. It grows to a height of about 10 feet and bears fruits which are a size of potatoes which are green when unripe and turns white or yellow when it becomes ripe. Literally the entire plant, including the bark and leaves, is used to prepare medicines. They have been used to prepare traditional Polynesian medicines for centuries.
What Is Noni Juice Good For?
Studies, still in the preliminary stages, have claimed that both the noni juice as well as the fruit may be helpful in the treatment of cholesterol problems, diabetes, HIV, psoriasis, infections, allergies, inflammations, rheumatism, high blood pressure and heart diseases. It is also looked as a potential cure to cancer although studies conducted so far has given positive results on animals. The studies are yet to be conducted on humans. Some believe that noni juice may relieve the symptoms of sinusitis, ulcers, depression, atherosclerosis, flu, menstrual cramps, sprains, senility, addiction, headaches, arthritis, injuries, poor digestion and also cold. These claims are yet to be verified by studies.
The traditional medicines were created for all of these purposes but the modern man is introduced to it as a general stress reliever and a body cleanser.
How Is It Used?
The noni is used in several forms like tea, juice, tonic and even poultice. Although the noni juice is extremely nutritious there is one unpleasant thing about it. Unfortunately the taste and odour of both the fruit and the juice is repelling. To mask this unpleasant odour people normally mix the noni juice with some other kinds of fruit juices to make it bearable. The manufacturers also mix fruit juices to noni juice so if you try to buy the juice off the market; chances are that you will not find a 100% noni juice.
A kind of juice is also made using the bark and leaves to help people who have urinary complaints. The same is also used for treating muscle pain and also joint pain. The unripe noni fruit is sometime mashed with salt and is applied on broken bones and even cuts to speed up the healing process. The ripe noni fruit is used to treat skin problems like blemishes, boils, skin sores and also skin infections. A kind of tea is made using the leaves of the noni tree and is drank to help in the treatment of rheumatism, tuberculosis, arthritis and also as an anti – aging agent.
Noni-berries
The modern medicine has gone a step further and has found ways to turn the noni into extract, capsules, powder, soaps, bath gels and also facial cleansers. They have tried to turn the juice into every possible product so that you can make your entire body healthy. With such a wide array of products to choose from you can have your pick.
