4.0 out of 5 stars Buy the Book then Grow a Tree, July 16, 2000

By 

A G CLARK - See all my reviews

This review is from: Noni: Aspirin of the Ancients (Paperback)

If you read this book you'll want to grow a noni tree in your back garden!. Diana has gathered a great deal of information on this fruit and in an easily read style has explained and shown how to use the Morinda Citrifolia tree to benefit you and your loved ones' health. Diana's bibliography shows how many others know of the healing benefits of Noni, and almost every chapter describes a new way of using the tree, and especially the juice. I read the book twice within the first few days - I highly recommend it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Historical Resource, May 28, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Noni: Aspirin of the Ancients (Paperback)

This book was overall a good historical resource about noni, with much of the information provided by local Hawaiian Kahunas, or healers. I would recommend it for those who are interested in the history of noni, but when recommending it to customers, I would clarify a statement made at the end of the book regarding taking noni and medication together, rending both ineffective. The author does not make it clear whether that means not taking them together at the same moment, or discontinuing use of medications while drinking noni for a period of time. Scientists have recommended drinking noni 20 minutes before taking any medication or eating, without any adverse effects. So to avoid confusion, I would emphasize that no one should stop taking their prescription medications without their doctor's consent.

5.0 out of 5 stars An enchanting book of fact and herbal wisdom., August 2, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Noni (Unbound)

NONI is a decidedly enchanting book of fact and herbal wisdom with a friendly folklore feel to it. It is another example of Diana Fairechild's wonderful talent. She naturally and easily captures in her writing a mystical lightness that connects us to our better selves, that brings us closer to our creator. And all in the context of solid, usable, unique information.
