The discovery that Tahitian Noni® Juice is made from the fruit of a bioactive-rich, adaptogenic plant, that contains iridoid compounds produces the science behind the health benefits that people have been experiencing for years. Tahitian Noni® Bioactive Beverages is truly a bioactive beverage. The recent testing of Tahitian Noni® Juice (now known as five different Tahitian Noni® Bioactive Beverages) demonstrating that the iridoids were still active even nine years past the bottle’s expiration date provides confidence of the potency of the juice and the resulting benefits to the body.
The important bioactive in noni is iridoids. Iridoids are observed in medicinal plants and science has demonstrated that they enhance the immune system, boost heart health, give protection to cells, maintain healthy HDL cholesterol at already normal levels, increase energy and endurance, and minimize free radicals.
Iridoids are hardly ever present in fruits, which make the noni fruit exceptional and provides it with an edge when made into juice. In fact the iridoids in Tahitian Noni® Bioactive Beverages are resistant to degradation in storage and during processing, rendering it incredibly stable. The same exposure to heat, light and oxygen that caused the potency in other fruit juices to quickly degrade was used to test the iridoids in the Tahitian Noni® Bioactive Beverages. The result ended up being the iridoids preserve their chemical structure and their potency in all of these processes including pasteurization.
The exciting fact about iridoids is they are usually made in plants as a natural defense against their surrounding natural environment relieving the stress on the plant. Noni has been shown to provide support from a wide range of physical and biological stressors. Additionally noni does this while not producing toxic side effects. A well recognized example of how iridoids in Tahitian Noni® Juice function is seen in horses prior to and throughout competitions. Owners and trainers agree that horses provided with Tahitian Noni® Juice in their feed just before travelling to and during the competition were much less stressed from the changes of their environment and challenges of the competition.
