What's The Alternative?
by Susan Clark
Q. Last year, our Christmas holiday was ruined by a bad bout of flu that knocked us all off our feet. Can you suggest something we can take over the next few weeks to stop this happening again?
G Royston, by e-mail
A. The natural remedy you should ensure you have in your medicine chest this Christmas is noni juice, but in its more potent concentrate form. In early clinical trials in Bulgaria, researchers reported that noni concentrate could banish flu symptoms in as little as two hours; and in America, family doctors have reported using it successfully to ward off colds and flu.
Noni juice — also known as Indian mulberry — is a traditional Polynesian remedy that is used for a wide range of conditions. The juice is made from the fruit of the plant and, as it contains antioxidant vitamin C, it is plausible that a more concentrated form could give the immune system enough of a boost to help protect against unwelcome seasonal flu outbreaks.
Another reason existing fans of noni juice should consider switching to the concentrate is that the latter has no unpleasant aftertaste, making it more palatable to younger family members.
A 30ml bottle of concentrate — the equivalent of 8 litres of noni juice — costs £29.99 from Rio Health Direct (01273 570987;
www.riohealth.co.uk. If you already have flu, take 25 drops every 30 minutes for four hours to accelerate your recovery. If you want to reduce the risk of succumbing to flu in the first place, use as directed on the bottle.

The Nutramedix Company of Jupiter, Florida has created a novel Noni juice concentrate which is devoid of the unpleasant taste of the fruit. The concentration of 8 liters of Noni fruit into one ounce of fluid concentrate greatly magnifies the therapeutic effect. This results in dramatic cost savings because just one liter of Noni juice can cost as much as $70 USD in some countries. Noni fruit is an incredible healing substance that is quite valuable in treating many medical conditions including pain, hypertension, allergies, skin diseases, diabetes, gout, digestive disorders, infections (Noni is nicknamed Polynesian penicillin), injuries, lung disease, high cholesterol, cancer and drug and nicotine abuse.
Dr. Lee Cowden of Dallas, Texas has observed that 25 drops of Noni concentrate every 30 minutes (5 doses) can eliminate the symptoms associated with the common cold. He also states that the symptoms of acute viral illnesses including influenza can be eliminated with 25 drops of Noni concentrate every 30 minutes for four hours (9 doses). Recently Nutramedix's distributor in Bulgaria conducted a two week study using Noni concentrate to treat the common cold. The clinic in Bulgaria reported, "It works in 2 hours, please send us 10,000 bottles as soon as possible." As we enter the season for influenza epidemics having Noni concentrate in your home could provide prompt recovery and avoidance of the danger of the influenza vaccine.
In this era of man made infections (HIV, Ebola, West Nile virus, Lyme Disease {Borrelia burgdorfi spirochete}, SARS and possibly the dispersion of anthrax) having Noni Concentrate in your home could be life saving. If Noni is capable of killing the viral organisms that cause colds and influenza there is reason to be optimistic that it could cure the above mentioned infectious organisms. I strongly urge everyone to consider keeping Noni concentrate in your medicine cabinet.
Studies should be initiated to see if osteomyelitis and drug resistant tuberculosis would respond to Noni concentrate as both these problems are a major headache for the medical profession. Eighty nine percent of mycobacterium tuberculosis were sensitive to Noni fruit in an old study originating in the Philippine Islands.
Leishmaniasis, which is a serious health problem in the middle east, is also killed by noni fruit. The intestinal parasite ascaris lumbricoides[1] is eradicated by noni fruit.
Drug resistant malarial organisms are a major cause of death throughout the world. The drugs used to treat malaria are toxic and have become less valuable as resistant forms of plasmodia have developed. ****acanthal, an anthraquinone compound found in noni fruit, is known to kill plasmodium falciparum[2] parasites. An ancient Chinese herbal therapy for malaria may be the most effective agent currently available. In this setting Noni concentrate might turn out to become the best therapy available. Little testing of natural therapies in malaria has been done as most testing is funded by pharmaceutical firms who have no interest in natural products such as Noni because they can not be patented.
As a natural substance Noni concentrate will not cause bacterial resistance and the damage to the bacteria in the intestinal tract that always follows antibiotic therapy. This loss of healthy intestinal bacteria to antibiotic treatment causes injury to the immune system which may explain why women who have received a course of antibiotic therapy have a significantly higher incidence of breast cancer than women not receiving antibiotic therapy. A group of 10,000 women, including 2266 with breast cancer,[3] were followed for 17 years in the Fred Hutchison Cancer Research Center in Seattle.The women who had taken more than 25 prescriptions for antibiotics had twice the incidence of breast cancer as women who took no antibiotics. Women who took fewer than 25 antibiotic prescriptions during this period had a 50 % greater incidence of breast cancer than the women who had never received antibiotics. This immune system damage from loss of healthy bacteria might produce an inability to kill tumor cells.
I think the development of Noni concentrate will turn out to be a major advance in healing infectious problems and malignancies. Noni concentrate can be obtained from Nutramedix at
