Noni juice recently toped the list of best selling botanicals published by the Nutrition Business Journal, beating out such perennial favorites as green tea and Echinacea. Noni juice is far from a new fad, however, the fruit and other parts of the tree have been used traditional Ayuverdic and Polynesian medicin for centuries. Traditional uses of noni include diabetes, infectious diseases, and topical applications to treat burns and cuts. Herbalists prefer to use powdered noni, not the juice, which is only available in fresh form in Polynesia. Noni juice is touted for its high Vitamin C content.

Traditional healers use all parts of the tree (leaves, flowers, fruits, bark, roots) as tonics.
