Noni

Morinda citrifolia
Pacificimmune-supportadaptogenanti-inflammatoryantioxidant

Noni is a small evergreen tree widespread across Polynesia, Micronesia, and Southeast Asia, where it has been used for over 2,000 years as a general tonic, immune support, and treatment for pain and infection. Every part of the plant is used in Pacific Island medicine: the fruit for immune and digestive support, the leaves topically for pain and inflammation, and the roots for fever. Its polysaccharide-rich fruit juice has demonstrated immunomodulatory activity in research and remains a staple of Pacific Island healing traditions.
