HISTORY AND TRADITION OF NONI
Ancient peoples of what is now known as French Polynesia , colonized islands
throughout the South Pacific . As they made their voyages from island to
island in the ocean-going canoes, they brought with them sacred plants from
their home islands. These plants contained the basic foods, construction
materials and medicines used by the Polynesian colonizers. Perhaps the most
important of these plants is known as Morinda Citrifolia . Ancient
manuscripts handed down from generation to generation, describe many uses
for this plant.
This plant is known among the people of the tropics world-wide. In Malaysia,
it is known as Mengkudu . In Southeast Asia it is known as Nhau . In the
islands of the South Pacific the plant is known as Nonu , in Samoa and
Tonga. Nono in Raratonga and Tahiti, and Noni in the Marquesas Islands and
Hawaii. Here it has become and integral part of the Polynesian culture. An
important source of food, the noni fruit of the Morinda Citrifolia tree has
been used for centuries as a food source. Early Polynesians recognized its
pure value and consumed it in times of famine.
During World War II, soldiers based on tropic Polynesian islands were taught
by the native Polynesian people to eat the noni fruit to sustain their
strength. The noni fruit became a staple food choice for people of
Raratonga, Samoa and Fiji who ate the noni fruit raw or cooked. Australian
Aborigines were fond of the noni and consumed it raw with salt. Seeds,
leaves, bark and root were also consumed by people familiar with the
qualities of this unusual plant.
I believe that we have much to learn from the traditional use of the amazing
plant. The wonderful thing about the morinda citrifolia plant is that every
part is valued and used.

IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT THE NONI FRUIT
The morinda citrifolia plant flourishes in the lush and unspoiled islands of
French Polynesia , the best known of these islands is Tahiti . It is
considered to be one of the most beautiful plants in the islands. It is a
valued addition to a traditional Polynesian garden. The plant reaches
heights of 15-20 feet and yields fruit year-round. The blossoms of the tree
are a creamy white color.The mature noni fruit is about the size of a potato
and resembles a small breadfruit. When ripe the noni fruit turns yellow and
white.
The traditional healers pick the noni fruit before is it fully ripe and
placed it in a jar in the direct sunlight. When fully ripe, the noni fruit
is mashed into a puree and the juice is extracted through a cloth. The juice
is now ready for use. Traditionally, the juice is taken during times of rest
when the body is under the least amount of stress. The Morinda Citrifolia
has been prized in Polynesia for centuries but has never found its way to
the western market, until now. Morinda Inc. is the first company to offer it
to the North American consumer.
A paper has been entitled, "The Pharmacologically Active Ingredient of Noni"
by R. M. Heinicke of the University of Hawaii. The author reports that he
found noni to be "the best raw material to use for the isolation of
xeronine," a new alkaloid.
