Warning - Read This Now Before You Buy Pure Noni Juice!

By Nathan Marks

If you see a product labeled as pure noni juice, what this means is that this juice should be only noni juice and not a blend of noni and other fruit juices. In addition, a pure noni juice product should be free of any additives: and certainly no added flavors, sweeteners or preservatives should be used.

For some people, pure noni juice also means that it is unpasteurized however most noni juice products on the market (including pure noni juice) for safety reasons do go through the pasteurization process. More often than not, pure noni juice is made from organically grown noni that has been allowed to age and ferment naturally for a period of 3 to 6 months. This makes for a more concentrated juice packed full of all the beneficial vitamins and nutrients that the noni fruit contains.

However there can be significant differences in the overall quality of pure noni juice products. One of the main reasons for this is that much depends on the ripeness of the fruit when it was picked. Noni that is harvested prematurely will not ferment adequately and it's nutrient levels will be lower than noni picked when it is fully mature.

It's important to know this since some pure noni juice manufacturers may harvest the fruit too early resulting in a sub-standard product. Remember the aging process for noni can be as long as 3 to 6 months and basically the longer it is allowed to ferment the more concentrated the final product will be.

One other thing that consumers need to be aware of is that not all products labeled as pure noni juice are in fact what they claim to be. These products may have only noni pulp or even just a noni extract which has been mixed with other types of juice; it may look like pure noni juice, but these products are anything but.

To make sure that you're really buying pure noni juice, always check the label carefully before purchasing. Look at what's contained - what you want is pure noni juice and nothing else; if other fruit juices are listed on the label, you'll want to keep looking for another product.

The origin of the juice is another clue to its quality; the best noni (and thus the best pure noni juice) comes from Hawaii, Tahiti and the Marquesas Islands. These are places with volcanic soil which is ideal for growing noni. As long as you're looking at the label, you may want to check to see if the pure noni juice product you're looking at is pasteurized.

The FDA is not responsible for ensuring that these products are actually as pure as their manufacturers claim, so in this case consumers are on their own to evaluate this. If you're interested in doing so, it is possible to make sure that you're getting authentic pure noni juice by buying noni fruit and fermenting it yourself. It's easy enough to do - just leave the fruit in a bowl at room temperature. As the noni ferments, juice will leak out, which you can then collect. If at all possible, choose organically grown fruit if you plan to make your own pure noni juice.

Ultimately, it's up to you to make sure that you're buying juice which is really pure noni juice and not something which contains just a minuscule amount of noni. Read labels and purchase only pure noni juice products - only these will give you the full array of health benefits which this juice provides. - 30414
