Nutritional Analysis of Noni Juice
Noni is the ultimate most comprehensive natural nutrient that works in synergy with our processes to distribute the nutrients where required. Most of us would agree that while eating healthy is a pre-requisite for a healthy and long life, unless we grow the food we eat ourselves, then we have little control over the processes food goes through before it reaches our plate.
A complete nutritional analysis of pure Noni juice reveals that it is a good source of vitamin C and other antioxidants. Like some other fruit juices, it is relatively high in potassium (K). Potassium is associated with many health benefits and promotes healthy heart rhythm, muscular contraction, nerve function, energy production and fluid balance. Insufficient potassium is associated with fatigue, muscle weakness and spasm and insomnia. According to the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies, adults should consume 4.7 grams of potassium per day to lower blood pressure, minimise the effects of salt and reduce the risk of kidney stones and bone loss. However, most American women 31 - 50 years old consume less than half of the recommended amount of potassium, and men’s intake is only moderately higher. Incorporation of Noni in one’s diet could help correct this deficiency. People with renal problems need to be aware of their potassium intake from all foods and supplements, including Noni.
Noni juice is low in protein, calories and fat and has no cholesterol. It is usually very acidic, about as acidic as lemon juice and it provides trace amounts of many elements.
