I just found this interesting...

On August 26, 1998, the Attorneys General of Arizona, California, New Jersey, and Texas announced a multi-state settlement with Morinda, Inc., a multilevel company headquartered in Linden, Utah. The states had charged that Morinda had made unsubstantiated claims in consumer testimonials and other promotional material that its "Tahitian Noni" juice could treat, cure or prevent numerous diseases, including diabetes, depression, hemorrhoids and arthritis. Such claims rendered the beverage an unapproved new drug under state and federal food and drug laws and should not have been sold until it received approval.

I am reading a "forensic novel" called "Natural Causes" by Michael Palmer (Random House) in which it is claimed that Noni (Morinda citrifolia) contains powerful anti-clotting agents and therfore should be used with caution, etc, etc. This sems to be supported by the Wikipedia entry for Morinda citrifolia, which may be where Mr. Palmer got his information...

The same can be said of Comfrey (Symphytum officinale, I suppose.

Has anyone encountered this "anti-clotting" activity in noni jiuce??

I have tried the noni juice...the taste was not very good.  I recently stumbled upon noni fruit leather, that is very palatable.  NONI FRUIT LEATHER and LAVENDER NONI LOTION make ideal first-aid kits for home, car, purse, pocket or pack, and need no refrigeration.

NOTE FROM MODERATORS:

NONI SPAM IS GOOD TOO - NOT - Please take your gratuitous spam elsewhere. Anymore and you'll get it locked and then you'll be promoting US not yourself.
