Of course not!! Look, the "INCC" is a wholly run and operated arm of
Morinda, aka TNI. What happens to dried fruit? The WATER is subtracted and
the nutrients concentrated. Check out the nutrient differences between
plums and prunes or raisins and grapes.

Also, Morinda's product is mostly grape and blueberry juice and only about
19% noni. I have proved this statement before (according to French
Polynesian records). Look it up in the archives.

All the best,
