Hey, did you know it's illegal for you to post this in a forum that might be viewed in Arizona, California, New Jersey, or Texas? It's part of Several Noni Distributers' settlement with those states' Attorneys General over claims of medical wonders & miracle cures due to using Noni Juice. Claims of miracle cures like this are also illegal under US Federal law, specifically the Food & Drug Administration's regulation 21 C.F.R. 101.93(g). And there are actual, documented cases listed by the National Institutes for Health of Hepititis being CAUSED by Tahitian Noni, did you know that? How about the fact that one of the Tahitian Noni manufacturers & sellers in California was sued because ingredients in their products cause Cancer? And not to be provincial, Noni has been banned or marked with warnings about false health claims in Finland, France, Holland & Germany, and has been found that "In no case is Noni Juice better than orange-juice or apple-juice or any other fruit juice. We have measured the concentrations of vitamins and minerals, including anti-oxidants, and they all fall within similar ranges at which point any proclaimed beneficial health improvements can not be attributed" by the European Union labs in Barvaria (You can plug that page into Babelfish to get a translation). In Europe Noni juice can only be sold as a Novel Food and cannot make ANY claims to medicinal value. But what about Tahiti? Didn't ancient Polynesians drink Noni juice for all the wonderful heath benifits? No, the ancient Polynesians only used it Topically. And the bark was used as a red dye. Vay, this is a board about Tikis, Tiki Culture, Hawaiiana, Polynesia, and various related subjects, and you're welcome to post about them here. But if you feel the need to post about the wonderful health benifits of anything besides Mai Tais, take it somewhere else.
