Episode #4 - Noni Fruit Radio Botanical
-
- Nutrition
The Noni fruit may have originated in Southern Asia, but when Polynesian navigators brought it to Hawaii about 2000 years ago, they adopted it as both a medicine and a complex cultural icon.
Today we are discussing Morinda Citrifolia, or Noni, a plant in the coffee family (Rubiaceae). It's also known as Beach Mulberry, Vomit Fruit, and Cheese Fruit. Is it a mulberry? Is it a cheese? Will it make you sick? Well, if you disguise the taste in a quality botanical formula or learn to love the juice (ask your local Hawaiian kuku wahine, or grandmother, to tell you how to make this happen), you may find yourself healthier than you've ever been.
Tune in to find out:
What is a "canoe plant" and why was Noni perfect for the job?
How is Noni traditionally used by indigenous Hawaiians?
How could Noni compounds possibly be an antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-tumor, analgesic, hypotensive, anti-inflammatory, and anxiolytic all at the same time?
Why is Noni grown at Hindu temples in India?
Is "iridoid" just another word for "annoying" and if not, WHAT IS IT?
Plus, find out what we know about Noni fruit (Morinda citrifolia) benefits from the latest and greatest scientific research studies!
Warning, we also sing. Briefly. We apologize.

BTW, Noni is a key ingredient in both Paracleanse and B-Cleanse, two of the most important botanical formulas in our Gut Wellness Program. You (or your practitioner) can purchase Paracleanse here and B-Cleanse here. Miranda also mentioned Dentalcidin broad spectrum botanical toothpaste--which contains Noni as one of the primary ingredients. It "can assist in removing biofilms and plaque, and is an excellent way to promote and maintain healthy teeth and gums." Miranda uses it obsessively. Remember, when you purchase through our affiliate links, you are supporting the educational mission of the Global Wellness Lab (and taking advantage of years of our personal experience with specific formulas and nutraceutical companies).
Clarification: The Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is native to several continents, including Africa. However, most Americans have never eaten true yam in the U.S. Generally what we label "yam" is actually a Latin American sweet potato.
