The Complete Guide to Travelling with Noni

Travelling with medications, supplements, and other health equipment can be stressful. If you put medications you need to take in checked baggage, it could get lost, or you might have a delayed dose. And not all health products are allowed in carry-on. If your supplement is a raw, whole fruit like noni, it gets even more complicated.

Whether you discovered noni on your travels and want to find a way to bring it home, or if you’re a long-time noni user who needs to bring it along on a trip, this guide will help you out.

Why is Noni Hard to Travel With?

Fresh foods in general are difficult to travel with, but noni is especially delicate. As soon as it’s picked it begins to ripen and within hours of ripening noni starts a rapid fermentation process. This process dramatically changes the chemical composition of the fruit, destroying many of the beneficial compounds that make noni such a powerful superfood.

Within days, the fruit will be totally fermented. Aside from the lost health benefits, fermented noni tastes even more pungent than the raw fruit.

Bringing fresh, whole noni fruits on an airplane would generally not be allowed by agricultural inspectors. If somehow you got pass the agricultural inspection with raw noni fruits it would quickly begin to ferment and smell. And the pungent smell of noni would permeate the aircraft. You wouldn’t be able to bring enough with you to sustain the health benefits long term.

This was the problem we ran into when we first discovered the healing powers of noni. We saw the incredible results the fruit delivers, but we couldn’t figure out a way to share it with the world, without damaging the delicate compounds that make it so beneficial.

Noni Juice Isn’t a Solution

Most people that sell noni process it into a juice form. Basically, making noni juice means using the natural fermentation process that happens when noni begins to ripen. To make juice, the fruit is totally fermented and then the juice is extracted.

The problem is, that fermentation process totally destroys the beneficial enzymes in noni, as well as many other compounds. So noni juice is fully 14x less potent than our raw food Noni Fruit Leather.

Noni juice also doesn’t travel well. It’s too much liquid to take in a carry on, but even if you could,noni juice has to be refrigerated. It’s functionally impossible to travel with.

The Key to Preserving Noni

It took us a long time to figure out exactly how to preserve noni in a way that would keep all the beneficial compounds intact, but we eventually succeeded. Our slow, low-heat dehydration method below 115 degrees F makes our Noni Fruit Leather a raw food. We remove the liquid and maintain the 165 beneficial compounds found in the pulp of noni.

We’ve found that removing the liquid from noni permanently stops that fermentation process. Both our Noni Fruit Leather and Noni Lotions have 2 year shelf life, not refrigerated.

Noni: World Traveller

Because of our innovative formula, we’re now able to ship our noni products worldwide. It’s been such an honor to bring the power of noni to so many people who have never tried it before.

Noni: Long-Term, Lasting Arthritis Relief

If you have arthritis, you know how difficult it can be to manage chronic pain. Especially if you don’t want to rely too heavily on NSAIDs and other prescription painkillers, it can seem impossible to find relief. Now there’s a natural, effective way to relieve joint pain quickly, without any side effects.

Noni fruit is an extraordinary fruit in many ways, but it’s most remarkable for its ability to relieve pain and inflammation. It works right at the source of the problem to repair damaged tissues and allow a more normal lifestyle to continue.

Here’s how it works against the chronic pain of arthritis.

Noni vs. Arthritis

Arthritis is loosely defined as painful inflammation and stiffness of joints, with over 3 million cases per year in the US alone. There are different kinds of arthritis, caused by wear-and-tear, infection, or underlying disease. Most of the time, we can’t be sure exactly why one person has arthritis and another does not.

There are three main categories of arthritis:

• Osteoarthritis: wearing down of cartilage at the ends of bones
• Rheumatoid Arthritis: an autoimmune disorder which attacks the lining of the membranes surrounding joints, resulting in swelling, bone erosion, and joint deformity
• Psoriatic Arthritis: inflammation of the skin and joints, starting with psoriasis and then spreading to the joints

Arthritis can be treated to reduce pain and maintain joint mobility. Treating arthritis usually requires medication, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery.

But by taking a small supplement of noni each day, and applying noni lotion to the impacted area, you cantreat both the pain and inflammation, naturally and non-invasively.

Animal Arthritis

Pets can get arthritis too. In fact, it’s very common in middle-aged to older pets. Arthritis can also happen in younger pets as a result of developmental disorders (such as hip dysplasia), injury, or obesity.

According to experts, you should look for:

• Limping, especially upon first getting up
• Difficulty moving or reluctance to move
• Pets tiring and becoming irritable more easily
• Muscle atrophy
• Licking, chewing, or biting

Many pets suffer from arthritis without treatment, either because the medications or treatments are too expensive, or because the owner doesn’t realize the pet is in pain. A pet’s quality of life can be greatly improved by weight loss, exercise, massage, and by keeping the house warm — especially where the pet sleeps.

Many pets also end up taking medications to manage arthritis. But just like humans, pets can suffer negative side effects from these drugs. Particularly, prolonged used of NSAIDs can be harmful.

Noni for pets is a more affordable, effective solution, which has no negative side effects whatsoever. In fact, it has additional benefits to improve your pet’s energy levels, metabolism, and overall health and well-being.

Veterinarian Testimonial: Dr. Joyce Harman

“I think noni is a very useful, very safe, very broadacting supplement...I’m also using it a lot more to treat Lyme disease because of its immune-stimulating properties and ability to treat arthritis.”

What’s Noni’s Secret?

Noni is one of the most complex and unusual fruits in nature, but it contains one beneficial compound in particular that is being scientifically evaluated for its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving qualities.

Scopoletin is a phytochemical that performs many functions. It seems to normalize blood pressure, fight bacteria, and regulate serotonin levels, in addition to relieving pain and inflammation.

Pain and Inflammation Relief

Noni has been proven in scientific studies, as well as in countless testimonials and anecdotes, to have a powerful impact on pain.

In fact, in 2010, Phytotherapy Research (24[1]:38-42) published a study from the University Clinic in Hamburg, Germany showing that preparations of noni “are effective in decreasing pain and joint destruction caused by arthritis.” The analgesic activity of noni fruit “reduced the pain sensitivitycomparably to the central analgesic drug tramadol.

Another study published in Acta Pharmacologica Sinica (23[12]:1127-1141) found that noni extract did not exhibit any toxic effects but did show significant anti-inflammatory and central analgesic activities. So significant, in fact, that it was estimated to be 75 percent as effective as morphine, yet totally safe and side-effect free.

Noni relieves the symptom of pain most directly when applied topically to the area in the form of lotion. Noni doesn’t just relieve the symptoms of pain, however. When taken internally, it heals from the inside out by targeting the inflammation causing the pain. This helps to actually slow down the damage being done to the joints, rather than just masking the pain.

But Don’t Take Our Word For It…

One of the best parts of my job is the testimonials that come in from the many people who noni has helped. Hearing how our product improves quality of life inspires me to continue spreading the word about noni, especially about how noni tackles pain.

Here are some inspiring stories I’d like to share with you, of people who have gotten their lives back from arthritis thanks to the healing power of noni fruit.

Sandy F.

"In February (2011), my husband and I returned to the wonderful Island of Oahu. While on a tour of the beaches, a disk in my back and my arthritic knees were causing me quite a bit of pain. Our tour bus driver, also a firm Noni user, asked if I would let Bob put some Noni lotion on my back. I did and as the tour continued I could tell Noni was helping. When we stopped for lunch, I put Noni on my knees and the next day, during a walk, it dawned on me that I had no pain. The rest is history. I continue to use Noni every morning and night, and have found that it has even taken away the swelling in my knees."

Sara L.

"I was very skeptical when I visited the noni farm a few months ago in Kauai, but this stuff has been a lifesaver. I was diagnosed with chronic arthritis in my neck before our trip. When I got back I was scheduled for shots, doctor's appt's and ultimately surgery. I started taking the noni fruit leather and using this lotion on my neck and within a couple days I had 80% relief. After a week I was 100% free of pain. I've been using this for 3 months and I am still totally pain free and no more numbness/tingling in my fingers. I must say I have to take the fruit leather too...3-4 times a day (which I find to be the most effective of the products) but this icy hot is great to put on the area you have pain in. It also works if you put it on the bottom of your feet too (not sure why but they recommend it and it does seem to help!)"

Mark B.

“Noni has changed my life. After hearing about Noni on our last trip to Kauai, I have tried both the Lavender lotion and the fruit leather. I have tried all categories of prescription pain relief and nothing worked. Noni does! I felt immediate, significant effects in pain reduction for my osteoarthritis and joint aches. Tasks which were overwhelming to undertake have once again become possible. Also, there is a mood enhancer effect which makes them enjoyable.”

The Albatross Return!

We’re very excited to announce that the first of the Laysan albatross that make their home on our organic family farm on Kauai have returned! Every year, my family and I watch for these first brave travelers to return. Soon, they’ll start nesting!

For now, these albatross are still recovering from their 3000 mile journey from Alaska! These adults will soon be joined by many others, and eventually a number of juveniles who are ready to start looking for a mate. This means we’ll be on the lookout for any previous years’ chicks that we can identify!

The juveniles will watch the adults and start choosing a mate. New breeding pairs will often take a season or two to “practice” playing house, before their first successful breeding season, usually when the birds are about 7 years old.

Last year, we had 19 breeding pairs in our colony, and we’re hoping to see a few new pairs this year!

Name That Chick Contest

The return of the albatross means that something exciting is on the horizon: the annual Name That Chick Contest! Every year, you help us choose a chick to follow over the course of the breeding season. Then, we hold a contest to help us name the chicks.

So start thinking of your names now! Need a refresher on previous winners?

Blossom

Blossom was last year’s winning chick name! This cute little guy (or girl — impossible to tell without a DNA test!) was so much fun to follow last year as she grew from chick to fledgling. In early July, Blossom took off for a long voyage to Alaska. Although Blossom won’t be returning to Kauai this year, we hope to see him/her in a few years!

Other Winning Names

• Albert
• Abigale
• Sunshine
• Moana

Start brainstorming your winning name now!

The Art and History Behind our Lauhala Gift Bags

You may have noticed that this month’s coupon from Hawaiian Organic Noni gets you a free lauhala bag and a red bow when you buy one of our Holiday Special Lotion 2-Packs. You can choose any two 8 oz lotions, and we’ll include one of these attractive gift bags for free!

But we’ve gotten a lot of questions: What is Lauhala? Why is it culturally significant? Why do we include it in our holiday special?

What is Lauhala?

Lauhala is a Hawaiian word, coming from the root word lau, which means “leaf” and hala, the word for a common plant in Hawaii, also known as Hawaiian Screwpine or Pandanus tectorius.

Hala has long leaves that can be woven into fabric, which can then be put to a wide variety of uses. The art of weaving hala leaves is common across many Pacific cultures, including in Hawaii. Lauhala refers to the art of weaving hala leaves.

History of Lauhala

Lauhala may have been brought to Hawaii as a canoe plant, which you can learn more about here. Ancient Polynesian explorers brought many of the most important plants they needed for survival with them in their canoes, in the form of seeds or seedlings.

Or, as legend would have it, hala trees may spread across the islands when the volcano goddess Pele ripped the tree apart in punishment for snagging her canoe when she first landed on the island of Hawaii.

However the hala tree got its start on Hawaii, it’s been a vital part of Hawaiian culture for thousands of years.

Hala Trees

Hala would have been considered a very important plant, as it was used for such a wide variety of things, including lauhala weaving. In addition, hala trunks were used for building, and the flowers were used to make special ceremonial leis.

The Ancient Art of Lauhala

The art of lauhala was once a highly prized and developed skill, and weavers were traditionally very well off and praised for their skill. Indeed, most families had many weavers, who turned the plentiful leaves of the hala trees into mats, baskets, clothing, fans and hats.

The art was passed down over generations, with children learning from a variety of teachers who would teach unique styles and techniques. Each weaver’s unique style would be a blend of everyone who taught him or her.

Impact of Western Trade

Unfortunately, the increase in trade with the West caused a decline in the 19th century. Lauhala is still practiced today largely because of the plantation industry. Artisans created hats (still one of the most common applications of lauhala) and baskets to harvest and carry coffee beans. Many artisans survived by trading their lauhala products directly for food.

Lauhala Today

Today, lauhala survives largely due to the tourist industry. Whereas lauhala was used in ancient times to make canoe sails, wall thatch, and mats, it is now most often used to make purses, placemats, and yes, gift baskets. As in ancient times, it’s also commonly used to make garments, especially hats.

Along with leis and grass skirts, lauhala products are seen as one of the iconic souvenirs of Hawaii.

What to Do if You Just Don’t Like How Noni Tastes

We’ll be the first to admit it: noni has an unusual flavor and smell. It’s most similar to bleu cheese, enough so that many people call it “Cheesy Fruit” or just “Stinky Fruit.” Some people call it “Vomit Fruit,” but we promise that one in particular isn’t accurate.

But it is a fact that many people are shocked by their first taste of noni fruit.

Many people try noni for the first time either when they try our Noni Fruit Leather, or when they sample noni fruit fresh from the tree when they visit our organic family farm on a tour. The fruit tastes better than it smells, but it’s always funny to watch people’s initial reaction on the farm tour.

Usually, you can acquire a taste for it over time, especially once you start to associate it with the mood and energy lift that comes with it. But if you really struggle with the taste of Noni Fruit Leather, here are some suggestions to help you get your daily dose of noni anyway.

Roll it Up Like a Pill

This is the easiest way to get your noni without having to taste much of it. It’s also a great way to get stubborn pets to take noni (although most pets seem to love how it tastes — they can tell it’s good for them).

First, portion out a 2x2 inch square of Noni Fruit Leather (our recommended dose) into a fewsmaller pieces. Then simply roll each of those pieces into a ball using your fingers and swallow them like pills. You still get all the health benefits of noni, but it doesn’t have to be in your mouth for very long!

Dissolve it in Liquid

Our Noni Fruit Leather has the unique property of being able to dissolve in liquids. This helps you swallow the noni more quickly, since you don’t have to chew it up. It also gives you the opportunity toadd a flavor that’s more palatable to you.

Try adding your 2x2 inch piece of noni to warm (not hot!) water while you’re steeping tea. Noni’s flavor goes well with many herbal teas. You can also add noni to your favorite juice — preferably homemade or organic.

Make Noni Tea

If mixing noni with your juice or tea still isn’t quite doing it for you, try the special Noni Iced Tea recipe we’ve developed here at Hawaiian Organic Noni! The recipe is naturally-sweetened, allergy-friendly, and totally organic.

You start by pureeing Noni Fruit Leather with water, and then add apple juice, more water, and cinnamon for a complex, fresh, naturally sweet flavor. We serve this tea at the start of every farm tour, and it’s always a hit!

Get the recipe by clicking here!

Create a Signature Smoothie Blend

You can also add Noni Fruit Leather to a smoothie blend, where the flavor will almost totally camouflage behind the other fruits you added. It’s particularly good in green smoothies and smoothies with lots of other tropical fruits.

Tip: Start your smoothie blend with just your liquid (water, juice, coconut water, or nut milk), your piece of noni fruit leather, and any vegetables you want to add. Blending these first helps make sure there aren’t any chunks of noni or vegetables in the final smoothie.

Once you have a smoothly blended liquid, add your fruit, thickeners, and other flavorings.

Try Noni Banana Fruit Leather

We also make a different version of our Noni Fruit Leather, which is the same as our regular recipe, but with the addition of real banana. The banana adds extra potassium, so you get all the beneficial compounds of noni, plus all the goodness of ripe banana.

Most importantly, the banana gives the fruit leather a more balanced, sweeter flavor. You can still get your daily dose of noni without having to work too hard to disguise the flavor — we do the work for you! You can also use Noni Banana Fruit Leather in any of the above ways!

Use Noni as a Bleu Cheese Substitute

Some people have difficulty mixing noni fruit’s unusual flavor profile with sweeter flavors, and do better getting their noni from a savory source. Noni actually makes a great bleu cheese substitutein dressings, salads, and dips!

We’ve developed a few recipes that use noni as a bleu cheese substitute. These recipes give you theflavor of bleu cheese, totally vegan and without the fat. Click here to take a look!

This Unusual Fruit Can Help You Feel Your Best This Winter

Winters are mild here on our family farm on Kauai, but for those of you who live in colder climates, this season can be really tough on the body and the mind. Cold, dry winter air can aggravate aches and pains and dry out your skin. Lower levels of daylight can depress your mood, and it’s hard to keep the winter cold and flu bugs at bay. But noni, a Polynesian fruit with an unusual flavor and powerful healing properties, is here to help!

What is Noni?

Noni is a fruit that comes from a hardy tree that thrives in tropical zones. The fruit has an unique flavor and smell that many people acquire a taste for.

More importantly, the fruit has over 165 powerful beneficial healing compounds, that can heal your body from the inside out and the outside in.

Compounds in Noni

• Scopoletin: Pain-killer, boosts mood
• Anthraquinone: Anti-bacterial
• Terpenes: Cell restoration
• Soluble & Insoluble Fiber
• Vitamins, Minerals, & Phytonutrients

Effects of Noni

Noni fruit has a wide variety of beneficial impacts on the mind and body, which are especially important during the winter.

• Improves mood
• Relieves pain and inflammation
• Helps repair cells
• Strengthens immune response

Where Can I Find Noni?

Unfortunately, you won’t find fresh noni fruit in your grocery store. It starts to ferment almost immediately after being picked, and it doesn’t keep at all. If you don’t have access to a noni treewhere you can get fresh fruit, you’ll need to buy a stabilized noni product.

Noni juice is the most common, but least effective. To make noni juice, the fruit is allowed to fully ferment, and then is prepared into a juice that is often sweetened and/or diluted. Plus, the fermentation process itself destroys many of the beneficial compounds that make noni so powerful for healing.

At Hawaiian Organic Noni, we’ve solved the problem by creating raw, slow-dehydrated Noni Fruit Leather and lotions from fresh, organic noni pulp. Removing the water keep the product stable, without destroying those beneficial compounds.

We offer a convenient, easy way to get your daily dose of noni, as close as you can get to fresh off the tree. Check out our shop to learn more!

Noni takes a few weeks of consistent use to get results, so start taking noni now to be fully prepared for winter! Here are some specific ways noni can help you look and feel your best this winter.

Protects and Heals Skin

Winter is hard on skin because the cold, dry air tends to suck the moisture right out of you. The result is dry skin, which can lead to other complaints like acne or even contribute to the aging process.

Many people also neglect to wear sunscreen during the winter, as the sun is less intense. But it’s still very possible to get a sunburn in the winter, especially while playing winter sports. If you live at elevation, the danger is especially high.

How Noni Helps:

Noni, whether applied topically or taken internally, helps protect and heal dry skin. It contains all the nutritional building blocks for healthy skin. For best results, we recommend both taking a daily dose of Noni Fruit Leather and applying Noni Lavender Lotion on dry spots.

Soothes Aches and Pains

Cold weather tends to bring out aches and pains like nothing else, which makes winter a very difficult season for many people. Relief can be short-lived and hard to come by

How Noni Helps:

Noni contains powerful pain relieving compounds, which soothe pain and inflammation without the damaging side effects of most painkillers. One study from Acta Pharmacologica Sinica found that noni was 75% as strong a painkiller as morphine, without any side effects or toxic level.

Applying noni to the area in pain relieves the symptom of pain in the shorter term, and taking Noni Fruit Leather addresses the deeper issue causing the pain. Whether the problem is inflammation, damaged tissue, or microbial, noni can tackle it.

Keeps the Blues at Bay

Winter can be tough on mental health as well as physical, particularly if you suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a condition where the low light levels of winter set off a depressive episode. It’s very common in varying degrees.

There are lots of potential ways to combat SAD, but diet is one of them. Changing your diet can actually change how you feel for a variety of reasons, and adding one powerful raw food like noni can make a big difference.

How Noni Helps:

The scopoletin in noni helps bind serotonin, a neurotransmitter with a big impact on mood. In fact, a mood and energy boost is one of the first things most people notice when they start taking Noni Fruit Leather daily.

Boosts Immune System

The winter cold and flu season is hard to escape from unscathed, especially if your immune system is already compromised by poor diet, chronic inflammation, and other factors.

Focus on natural ways to boost your immune response, and you stand a better chance of avoiding getting sick. If you get sick anyway, you’re likely to heal more quickly if your body has everything it needs to heal, already on hand.

How Noni Helps:

Noni has been used for thousands of years as a natural preventative. Ancient Polynesians ate the raw fruit daily to maintain good health. Today, we know that noni boosts the immune system and fights off microbial infection, making it a must-have to fight those winter bugs.

Fight Parasites with Noni!

One of noni’s many powers is its ability to help combat both human and pet parasites. Parasites can have a serious impact on you and your furry friends. Now you have an all-organic way to fight back, and even prevent parasites from striking at all!

Parasites can be bacteria, fungus, worms, insects, or arachnids. Some parasites cause acute symptoms, and others linger for long periods of time, slowly damaging health and detracting from quality of life. Either way, it’s important to address them right away.

But many medicines to treat parasites, especially for pets, are highly toxic. They can cause substantial harm to the host even as they get rid of the parasites. Even worse, many of these toxic treatments are becoming less and less effective over time, as parasite species co-evolve to outsmart us.

Noni is nature’s medicine, and it repels parasites without any toxins, or even any additives. The beneficial compounds in noni work together to fight infection, relieve pain, and, of course, drive away the harmful parasites.

Here are some ways it can help you and your pets stay parasite-free!

Bacterial Parasites

Sometimes, the parasites you can’t even see are the most harmful. Parasitic bacteria can attack you or your pets, going for the skin or even internal organs. Obviously, there’s a huge range of bacteria out there that affect humans and pets. Here are a few of the most common, which noni can help.

Noni is a powerful anti-microbial, due to the high levels of compounds like anthraquinone. It also helps boost the immune system. Whether taken internally as fruit leather or applied to the affected area as a lotion, noni helps keep bacterial parasites at bay.

Gut Bacteria

The blend of bacteria in our guts is a very complex, fragile ecosystem. The wrong kind of bacteria can mess up that balance and cause serious problems, as in this testimonial:

“I visited your island at the end of October and bought some Noni. I had ulcers and H. pylori and the doctors treated me four times and couldn't get rid of it. I took Noni fruit leather for six weeks and retested. I am bacteria free. Thank You for such a wonderful product! Thirty years I have fought ulcers.” — Sandra

Pets and humans alike can suffer from an imbalance of gut bacteria, and both can be aided by noni.

External Bacteria

Bacterial skin infections can be dangerous for pets and humans alike, but noni can help fight off bacteria that infects the skin. It also soothes the pain of the infection when applied topically.

Horses in particular are prone to bacterial skin infections. Rain rot (streptothiricosis) and Mud Fever(pastern dermatitis) are both common ailments for horses. Veterinarians have confirmed that noni is an effective organic treatment for both of these horse complaints. Learn more in this blog post!

Parasitic Fungal Infections

Parasitic fungal infections can be very nasty and difficult to get rid of. They can affect both humans and animals. The good news is, noni is great at fighting fungal infection.

Noni suppresses the spread of filaments in fungal cells, effectively stopping the growth of the fungus. It also reduces irritation at the site of the infection, as this testimonial shows:

“My physician diagnosed me with "Athletes Toe." It's very itchy and the Dr.'s order was not good for my situation. I called you and was told to use the lavender lotion and within 3 days was able to sleep without an itch! Thank you” — Johnny

Insects and Arachnids

Some of the most common parasites are insects and arachnids. They prey on humans and animals alike, and many can cause irritated skin. Many also carry diseases that can have much more serious complications.

Fleas and Ticks

Noni naturally repels most insect and arachnid parasites, preventing them from attacking at all. A great example is fleas and ticks, who generally don’t bite pets that eat noni every day. Our farm dog, Bhakti, has never had shots to prevent fleas or ticks, but he’s never been bitten yet!

Learn more about how noni prevents fleas and ticks in this blog post.

Lice

Lice are another parasite that just hates noni — much to our benefit! Noni lotion is a great natural remedy for head lice infections. It repels lice away from the head without any harsh chemicals.

Bug Bites

Once you get bitten, whether by a mosquito or another bug, many people will develop an irritating reaction. Itching, redness, and even pain are common. Noni relieves the irritation and speeds up the healing process. You can use either Noni Lavender Lotion or the Instant Noni Aloe BioBandage.

Noni contains the compound scopoletin, which is being actively researched for its pain-relieving, anti-inflammatory properties. After applying noni, your bites should feel less itchy, less hot, and less inflamed. If you’re treating your furry friends, hopefully they will be able to leave the bites alone long enough to heal!

Worms

Noni is also a powerful de-worming agent for pets, without any of the harmful chemicals usually used to remove them. Check out this testimonial:

“After my sheltie was diagnosed with whip worm and the meds prescribed by the vet failed to rid her of them I went searching the net for possible natural remedies. I read a review by someone claiming Noni rid her dog of whip worm by using Noni. I decided to try it, and the results are nothing short of amazing To say I am amazed is not saying enough. I have 4 dogs, and they are all taking Noni daily now, and will continue to do so for the rest of their lives. THANK YOU!!!!” — Chris

Noni can help with tape worms, whip worm, and round worms. You can cure your pet naturally, without having to resort to chemicals that might do as much harm as good.
