I understand it must be hard to be unpartial with interrests in the
Noni business for several members of this forum.

The same old story. Whatever side the members are on, they seem to
turn a story about the competitors much into their own likings.

I am trying to find an cheaper alternative to TNI, that I believe is
good and clean from a evironment-friendly. At least I don't think it
is that bad in worst case or more dishonest than the rest.

The Puree Method:
Talking about the juice, I can see though, the amount of pure juice
is pretty low in TNI juice. But TNI holds that the whole fruit is
important, because it important to have the effect of the fruit as a
whole.
To me it seems like a whole lot of active ingredients an vitamins
will be left in the bottle.

I haven't seen any lab tests about the amounts of the active
ingredients like proxernine or scopolemine left in competitors
bottles and capsules. Only proteins an vitamins. But I would sure
like to see it.

Hawaiian Noni seems also like worth trying.
Noni juice in plastic bottles ? Isn't it right that food kept in
plastic can transfer "som female hormons" to the food ?

But of cause time will tell someday what is left on the marked.
