Free radicals – These are molecules or atoms with unpaired electrons that are highly likely to take part in a chemical reaction. Some free radicals have negative effects on human cells and have been linked to ageing and certain diseases.
Studies into oxidative stress caused by free radicals in the human body are at an early stage, but it is known that antioxidants play a key role in the body’s natural defence mechanisms. Antioxidants, including the phytochemicals and Vitamin C in TAHITIAN NONI® Juice, help the body by improving energy/exercise endurance, helping to maintain healthy cholesterol levels, supporting healthy/ proper immune system function and cardiovascular wellbeing.
The Vitamin C levels in the raw Noni fruit are very high. Food safety laws require Noni fruit juice to be pasteurized. As with orange juice, this will reduce the vitamin C content, because vitamin being heat sensitive.
A relatively unknown fact is that orange juice producers add back ascorbic acid to increase the Vitamin C levels. Addition of ascorbic acid is not a part of the processing of TAHITIAN NONI® Juice. Vitamin C is not the only significant antioxidant in Noni fruit/Noni juice. Other antioxidant phytochemicals are present in the juice, which are classified as flavonoids, lignans, and iridoids. These are called novel compounds, meaning that they are newly discovered.
It is common knowledge that Noni juice has antioxidant properties, improves energy/exercise endurance, helps to maintain healthy cholesterol levels, and supports healthy/proper immune system function.
TAHITIAN NONI® Juice is a unique product. This super juice delivers the benefits of the Noni fruit in a simple easy to drink form. There are of course other Noni juice products available, but none can claim the same history as TAHITIAN NONI® Juice. The manufacturing systems Tahitian Noni International uses and the choice to include puree in the juice, not just the liquid that can be squeezed from the raw fruit is not duplicatable.
