Product Details

Morinda citrifolia is a small evergreen tree in the coffee family with large, shiny, dark-green leaves. It produces small, white flowers that develop into a bumpy, yellow-green fruit. Native to southeast Asia and Australasia, noni is now naturalized in tropical climates worldwide. Noni fruits have been used for their beneficial properties in Ayurveda and traditional Polynesian healing practices for thousands of years. Noni powder can be encapsulated, extracted, blended into smoothies, and steeped in herbal teas.

Although there is some contradictory opinion, the noni fruit probably originated in southeast Asia, India and Polynesia, where it thrives today. It has been used for over 2000 years. The first western documentation was in the late 18th century by Captain Cook who observed it being eaten by the locals. Different groups of islands have different, unique uses for the fruit. The tree bark is used as a red dye, and the root is used as a yellow dye for clothing.

Noni was mentioned in Ayurvedic texts well over 1000 years ago as Ashyuka, which means longevity, and was used as a balancing agent. The fruit itself is quite odoriferous, which makes the powdered form a more palatable way in which to take noni. Unlike other fruits, the noni has no "season", so it can be harvested every month from the same tree. The juice is traditionally made by placing the fruit in a jar with water until the fruit starts to decompose, at which point more water is added. The beverage is taken a little bit at a time, usually before meals. Also called Indian mulberry, noni belongs to the Rubiaceae plant family.

Our noni powder is made from the whole dried fruit.
