Mengkudu (Morinda citrifolia L.)

Posted by Ayuningtyas |

Noni fruit grows abundantly in the land of Indonesia. This plant smells less pleasant but have many benefits for health, including:
Increase Endurance Body
Clinical investigations conducted by Dr. Schechter (Institute of Natural Medicine in California) yield important data about the ability of Noni juice, of which stimulate the production of T cells in the immune system (T cells play an important role in fighting the disease); strengthen the immune system, especially macrofaset and lymphocytes from white blood cells, showing anti-bacterial effect; have the effect of anti-pain / pain (analgesic); inhibits cell growth of pre-cancer / tumor that is the ability to normalize the function of abnormal cells.
Mona Harrison, MD of Boston University School of Medicine and medical director of the DC General Hospiial, USA reported that Noni increases the function of the thyroid gland and thymus gland, which is believed to act against infections and problems associated with the immune system.

Normalize Blood Pressure
According to Neil Solomon, MD.PhD, health problems of American researchers reported that the Noni fruit contains a type of phytonutrients, namely scopoletin which serves to widen the blood vessels that are narrowed. This causes the heart does not have to work too hard to pump blood, so blood pressure became normal.
The results of tests on animals showed that scopoletin lowers high blood pressure and normal to low (hypotension, abnormal). However, scopoletin contained in Noni fruit can interact synergistically with nutraceuticals (functional foods for treatment) to regulate high blood pressure became normal, but not lower blood pressure is already normal. Never found a case where the blood pressure down to normal resulting in low blood pressure (hypotension).
Experts from Stanford University, University of Hawaii, University of California (UCLA), Union College of London, University of Meets in France who has studied the Noni plant is agreed that the role lower blood pressure in many cases.
Simple clinical trial conducted by Scott Gerson, MD (from Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York) shows that many users Mengkudu reported that their blood pressure becomes high when stopped drinking Noni juice, and return to normal when taking Noni juice is regularly.
Against Tumor and Cancer
An interesting paper presented at the annual meeting of the American Association fin. Cancer Research 83rd in San Diego, California, 1992 is "Anti-tumor activity of Morinda citrifolia on Lewis Lung Carcinoma in the mouse injected." In this study, rats were given an injection of Lewis Lung Carcinoma (a type of cancer). All mice that did not get the care with Noni die within 9-12 days due to cancer. While rats treated with Noni able to survive 105 percent to 123 percent longer (40 percent of experimental mice live up to 50 days or more). The study was repeated several times and each time Mengkudu proven to significantly extend the life-aged rats exposed to cancer compared with rats not treated with Noni. In summary, the results of this study revealed that Noni can inhibit tumor growth.
A year later the journal Cancer Letters (vol.3, 1993) reported the discovery of anti-cancer agent / damnacanthal in the Noni extract capable of inhibiting the growth of cancer cells.
There are some cases of cancer patients who consumed Noni fruit juice and be cured, among other cases, patients of Dr.. Harrison (DC General Hospital), who suffered from liver cancer and stomach swelling caused by excess fluid. During the 7 days taking Noni juice, swelling in the stomach is reduced significantly. Haru stomach fluids testing showed that cancer cells have disappeared.
According to Drs. Judah Folkman of Harvard University, Noni works synergistically with other micronutrients in menghamhat blood flow to the tumor cells. The mechanism is similar to squalen oil (from shark liver) that control brain tumor growth and prolong experimental mice by destroying the means of circulation of the blood supply to the tumor cells.

Eliminate Pain
The ability of Noni fruit has been known as an analgesic agent in the history of traditional medicine, so this plant is called a "painkiller tree" or "headache tree". Scientific research has proven beneficial effects of Noni to cope with the pain. In 1990, researchers found a significant relationship between dose of Noni juice extract with analgesic activity mouses trial (generally, the more widely used, the analgesic effect will be stronger).
Many theories that explain how the mechanisms work Noni relieve pain. One is the theory of Dr.. Ralph Heinicke (renowned biochemist from the U.S.) who said that xeronine who play a role in relieving the pain. This is associated with the ability to normalize protein xeronine in abnormal cells, including cells of brain tissue, from which he came the pain.
Some cases of chronic pain such as headaches constantly, muscle soreness and joint pain nerves healed after taking Noni juice.

Anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic
The compound scopoletin (hydroxy-methoxy-coumarin) is very effective as an anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic. Medical literature reported the successful treatment of arthritis, bursitis, car-pal tunnel syndrome and allergies by using scopoletin.
Bryant Bloss, MD, an orthopedist from Indiana, the U.S. reported the success of Noni juice cure back pain that caused also 15 people and patients. Meanwhile, the 8 patients reported knee pain (osteoarthritis) almost does not feel taking Noni juice. Three of his patients. Bloss who suffer from asthma progress with the reduction in cough. Some patients with arthritis also begins to experience the real progress after drinking Noni juice. She offers Noni juice as additional food / supplement, and not as a drug to the patient.

Anti-bacterial
Results of research journals published darn Pacific Science (vo1.4, 1950) reported that Noni contain antibacterial ingredients which can be used to tackle heart disease and digestive problems. Antraquinon that many compounds found in Noni roots turned out to be against Staphylococcus bacteria cause infections of the heart and the Shigella bacteria that cause dysentery.
Noni is antibacterial against: Bacillus subtilis, Escherichicr coli, Proteus morganii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella montevdleo, schotmuelleri Salmonella, Salmonella typhi, Shigella dysenteriae, Shigella flexnerii, Shigella paraciysenteriae BH und III-Z, Staphylococcus aureus.
Dr. Robert Young, microbiologist from Utah, USA find yeast molds and fungi with a toxic producted can diseased cells because the degree of acidity (pH) increases. By taking Noni juice, the situation can be overcome because Noni helps regulate the body's pH balance, thus increasing the ability of the body to absorb vitamins, minerals and proteins.

Set the Cycle of Moods (moods)
One of the capabilities possessed by seopoletin can bind to serotonin. According to Drs. Harrison (DC.General Hospital, USA) scopoletin peneal glands may increase the activity present in the brain, which is where serotonin is produced and then used to produce the hormone melatonin. Serotonin is an important substance in the granules of blood (platelets) lining the human gastrointestinal tract and brain.
In the brain, serotonin acts as neutrotrcrnsmitter, the signal conductor of advice and precursor of the hormone melatonin. Serotonin and melatonin helps regulate some of the body such as sleep, body temperature regulation, mood (mood), puberty and egg production cycle, hunger and sexual behavior. Lack of serotonin in the body can lead to migraine, dizziness, depression, and even Alzheimer's disease.

Set the Cycle Energy Body
Dr. Harrison also reported that the body's energy frequency changes are also caused by the positive activities of Noni juice. Effects, among others; can stabilize blood sugar, reduces menstrual pain time, reducing the desire to urinate at night for men who experience swelling of the prostate.
According to Drs. Heinicke (biochemist from the U.S.), xeronine also play a role in the process of the body's energy cycle. He explained the mechanism as follows, xeronine will be absorbed in the space adjacent to the absorption of endorphin and act as a precursor hormone (co-hormone) to activate the receptor protein that gives a good feeling / comfort. As a result, people will feel comfortable and have a lot of energy after taking Noni juice.

Key Benefits
Research on Noni continues to grow, both conducted by the physician and botanist and biochemist. The study focused on the chemical contained komponen-komponen/susunan Noni and its therapeutic effects against various diseases.
These studies show that Noni juice can stimulate the immune system, regulating cell function and regeneration of cells damaged tissue. The facts show that Noni can set the cells at the primary level and the tipping may explain why Noni can be used for a variety of health conditions.
Doctors in the United States already provides many reports of successful use of Noni juice to his patients. Dr. Richard Dicks (from New Jersey, USA) said, "we begin to realize that we must go back to the basics of our body. What is meant by metabolism in the body is burning nutrients. Noni juice protects the body by providing nutrients needed by the body. "

Additional efficacy-efficacy
Noni has a property, other properties that have not been proven medically, but the empirical has a lot of people who experienced health improvements and increased after eating fruit extract. Some health problems can be overcome by using Noni:
1. Digestive System: Flatulence, injury to the small intestine, stomach ulcers, vomiting and food poisoning.

9. Immune deficiency: Disease Epstein-Barr virus, chronic candidiasis, a disease caused by HIV infection, lack of energy (AES = Altered energy syndrome).

Why is one type of plant can cure so many diseases?

Scientific research shows that the constituents in fruit Mengkudui have the efficacy to stimulate the formation of immune response, cleanses the blood, regulate cell function, regeneration of damaged cells and inhibit tumor growth. Phytochemicals (chemicals found naturally in plants) has efficacy for the prevention of disease and is rich in antioxidant content. Noni has a very broad spectrum of phytochemicals, some of which are only found in Noni. The phytochemical phytochemical-synergy with each other to produce amazing healing properties.

Dr. Joseph Betz, chemical researchers from the FDA (Food and Drug Association) division of Natural Products Center For Good Safety and Applied Nutrition at the U.S. said that some experiments have shown that Noni juice can soothe muscle movement and have anti-allergic effects.

In 1992, Dr. Isabella Abbott, professor of botany at the University of Hawaii said that Noni more and more people use to cope with diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure and many other diseases.
