If I had to pick just one book on Tahitian Noni juice it would have to be this one! It is a must for customers and distributors alike. The book answers to the most frequently asked question: "How much do I take for this or that condition". Dr. Solomon's answers are based on his extensive survey of 1227 health professionals representing over 25,314 noni juice drinkers from over 80 countries who received positive results by drinking Tahitian Noni juice. He covers 29 major health conditions people suffer from and includes several testimonials.

Also included in this book are results of some of the latest Cancer studies performed by Dr. Mian-Ying Wang at the University of Illinois College at Rockford.

This book is also a great companion to Dr. Solomon's other book "The Noni Phenomenon".

This is one of the very best resources I have found to really explain why and how Tahitian Noni Juice works! Dr. Solomon also answers the first question everyone asks: How much should I drink? Well, he usually answers: "The amount that works!" But, in this book, he gives general guideline to help individuals derive the greatest benefit from Tahitian Noni Juice! All of the information presented in this book is based on his extensive research and surveys of over 10,000 individuals who drink Tahitian Noni Juice for a variety of health challenges. Now, when I share the miracle of Tahitian Noni Juice with someone, I also share this book!

This is the book that all "Jump on the Bandwagon" sellers of Noni Juice reference to push their "better" versions of the Original Noni Juice company called Tahitian Noni International. In truth, this book actually rates somewhere in the 3 to 4 star rating for its contribution to the study of the Noni fruit. However, I decided to give it the lowest rating available due to its exploitation by companies that cite this book as their only source of scientific "evidence." And, to advise you, and all those that read reviews, to be aware of companies that practice this shameless tactic. Nonetheless, this has always been the procedure that imitators desperately resort to in their efforts to make a buck! As a matter of fact, these other companies that sell "better" versions would not even exist if it were not for the original researchers at Tahitian Noni International! With this in mind, consider the following in your search for Noni Juice and the benefits that it may contribute to not only your health, but the health of your entire family. First, know that the most outrageous lie that one "Jump on the Bandwagon" seller is circulating around the internet is the false, unsubstantiated claim that "Juice Blends" are somehow inferior! This is a prime example of imitator companies that I referred to previously above that have absolutely no scientific research behind them to make this, or any other claim! Again, they just take a few concepts from this book, and make-up the rest. If they, or any of the countless other "Jump on the Bandwagon" Noni Juice sellers had the funds to actually do one speck of research or development, they would know that scientists have proven that adding small amounts of grape and blueberry juice to the Noni actually enhances the performance of the enzymes that circulate in our bodies! Nonetheless, they cannot reproduce this original Noni Juice from Tahitian Noni International because this formula, and even its bottle, are patented!
Last, know that the author of this book, Dr. Solomon, was also using the Original Noni Juice developed by Tahitian Noni International to conduct his studies even though the "Band Wagon Jumpers" won't admit to this fact. By the way, Dr. Solomon never had his medical license revoked for any reason.

I was very disappointed with this book. I felt like is was more like a sales brochure than a book. Their were too few testimonials and they were not specific. It just magicly helps everything at about the same dosage. Not one negative or down side about Noni Juice, ever. I was truly looking for info on Noni juice and did not recieve it.

I would have to agree with the previous review that this is a great
companion (follow-up -- read the other one first) to Solomon's other
book on Noni. I dont' take Noni for any specific "ailment".
I prefer to think of it as preventative care....

This book is a great tool to introduce new people to TAHITIAN NONI Juice. It gives you great research and detailed information for different ailments that TAHITIAN NONI Juice can help. It also gives people instructions on how to get the best results from the juice as well. All and all a great book!

I was not able to tell this book was not new. I need to order a few more of the same books and I will order from this seller again.

Attorneys General Curb
Claims for "Tahitian Noni"

On August 26, 1998, the Attorneys General of Arizona, California, New Jersey, and Texas announced a multi-state settlement with Morinda, Inc., a multilevel company headquartered in Linden, Utah. The states had charged that Morinda had made unsubstantiated claims in consumer testimonials and other promotional material that its "Tahitian Noni" juice could treat, cure or prevent numerous diseases, including diabetes, depression, hemorrhoids and arthritis. Such claims rendered the beverage an unapproved new drug under state and federal food and drug laws and should not have been sold until it received approval. Under the terms of the agreement, Morinda must:

* No longer make drug claims, or claims that the product can cure, treat, or prevent any disease until "Tahitian Noni" is approved and cleared for those uses by the U.S. Food and Drug Adminstration.
* Not make any other claims, whether health claims or others, regarding the benefits of "Tahitian Noni" unless such claims are true and the company can substantiate the claim by reliable scientific evidence.
* Not use testimonials which imply that the advertised claimed results are the typical or ordinary experience of consumers in actual conditions of use, unless Morinda possesses and relies upon adequate substantiation that the results are typical or ordinary.

In addition, Morinda must refund to any consumer who requests a refund in writing, the full purchase price paid for the product. The agreement also calls for Morinda to pay $100,000 for investigative costs.

Regulatory Action in Finland
Press Release: November 23/30, 1998
Temporary ban on sales of NONI fruit juice from Tahiti

In its decision (E 27/216/98) of November 26, 1998, the National Food Administration has banned the importation, exportation, trade stocking, offering and all other supplying, of the fruit juice marketed under the name of NONI until such time as the brochure which must be supplied in conjunction with sales, and other information, has been corrected in accordance with the Food Act and the regulations legislated on the basis of this Act.

NONI fruit juice is sold throughout Finland by means of network marketing, and in conjunction with sales of the product claims associated with health, and pharmaceutical information on the foodstuff, are systematically presented which are prohibited under section 6 of the Food Act. In the material in the brochure connected with sales, reference is made to the effects of the product in regard to the prevention of illnesses, their treatment and cure by, among things, listing the complaints that NONI has been shown to relieve. Among the complaints listed are HIV, cancer, diabetes, rheumatism, blood pressure, cholesterol, psoriasis, allergies, heart rhythm abnormality, chronic inflammation, and aching joints. To prevent any possible side-effects of NONI fruit juice, the brochure even urges people to reduce the dosage of prescription medicines. The information given in the brochure in conjunction with marketing, and other information, is also to be considered misleading to the consumer, since an impression is given of the nature of the product and its properties leading one to believe that the product is a medicine, not a food.

In addition to the brochure material contravening the Food Act regulations, the product contains a food ingredient from a plant (Morinda citrifolia) the utilization of which in the EU has thus far been extremely slight. Thus, it is possible that the ingredient is a novel food complying with the Novel Food Regulation (258/1997) which should have been brought on to the markets in a way compliant with stipulated procedures.

After careful deliberation, the National Food Administration has decided that protecting the consumers' health and economy from misleading marketing calls for immediate steps to be taken in regard to banning the sale, marketing and importation of this product.

For the lifting of the temporary ban the National Food Administration orders the importers, vendors and marketers responsible for the product to rectify the brochures and other information used for marketing and selling so that these no longer portray health effects contrary to the Food Act regulations according to which the product would have effects preventing, treating or curing illnesses. For supervising adherence to the regulations, information is required to be supplied to the National Food Administration on entrepreneurs and persons acting as network vendors, marketers and importers for the product. The National Food Administration also directs the parties responsible to determine whether the product is a novel foodstuff compliant with the Novel Foodstuff Regulation.

This page was revised on September 12, 2002.

Dr. Neil Solomon not only lost his license, but is also under an agreement to never practice medicine or give medical advice, so now he pushes quack cures like Noni Juice which is distributed via the internet and through multi-level marketing.

Noni juice companies use this so-called "guide" in order to promote their useless products and Solomon is actually the official physician of the "International Noni Communicatiion Council" and is hardly an impartial scientist.

Looking for sound medical advice in this waste of paper is like asking the meat marketing board for a vegetarian recipe.
