Starting Noni Juice

[sickntired]

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the board and spent several hours reading through all the posts yesterday.

I'm 37 and have had P for about 10 years. I have used all the prescription topical creams and although they seem to help remove the dry patches and some itching, the skin is still red, raised and tender. I own a computer consulting firm which calls for long hours, lots of stress and makes for bad eating habits.

Earlier this year I got "SicknTired" and took off to Aruba for a week. I had stopped using the topical creams at this point, WoW, after a week of no stress, the Aruba Sun and Ocean water, what a difference in my P. I decided I was to stay for another week and the good results continued, although it didn't completley clear I was amazed at the difference, it didn't take more than a week after returning from Aruba that my P came back full force :(

Yesterday I went to the Health food store and bought a half litre of 100% pure Noni Juice after reading about some of the good results on this board.

I will try and keep a diary of the results and keep this post updated.

Last Night - (2 ounces) My first tasting "YUCK" but I can deal with it.
My first side effect within an hour was Bad Heartburn. I took a couple of tums and that took care of it. The next Side effect - insomnia - I read that Noni would help me sleep like a baby, that was not the case for me - I was up until 4:00am, then had broken sleep for the rest of the night *sigh*, of course this leaves me a little more skeptical but I will give it 45 days or so to determine the results.

This morning - (2 ounces) My second tasting "Yuck"
Just a little after taste so far...

I will keep you up to date if your interested..

Thanks

so that is whats been keeping me up "some" nights...I'm the one that said I sleep like a baby...and I do once I get to sleep:p however when I started taking noni twice a day ...some days I took it in afternoon and somedays just before bedtime.....so now I will be taking it am and afternoon only.... did you read that I started at once a day and then went to twice ...I started that way to check for reactions...none after a month so went to two ounces twice a day....glad you're trying it...I'm also doing the hot tub dead sea salt soaks, and just started drinking dandelion tea 5 days ago....other than that only lotions...

There was someone who said you might get boils or something else, don't really remember 'cause I had already been on it without reactions...guess you could go back and check on some of the back pages.....I am not clear...but feel it is not getting worse either...some spots are gone, some are going, but all in all I have improved from when I started noni.......I know its a waiting game ....and as long as I see progress no matter how slow I will continue....

good luck and keep us informed...

would you mind posting on the "alternate Treatments" thread by kbradley...the one with 4.5 stars...thanks we're trying to keep an alternative thread going for those interested in it.

one more thing I don't eat tomatoes or potatoes since Dr. Pagano mentioned in his book, that they are triggers for P once a month I'll have pizza with no reaction, but if I have potatoes I do notice a stall........

Hi Sickntired!

Welcome to the Board! :cool: A lot of nice and helpful people post here. It's great to finally be able to ask questions or exchange info or vent or even share a couple of laughs with people who truly understand. :)

As Sally mentioned, there a long running thread about "alternate treatment" and I've posted a link from there to this thread. That way you'll be able to share your story with as many people as possible

Good luck. Keep us posted and please don't be a stranger.

Please do keep us all informed about your progress with Noni Juice. I have some sitting here on the kitchen counter and it's unopened. Ray and I are waiting to see how others fare and then together we'll have a noni toast!
(I know Ray would much rather have a beer; however, for the time being, Soriataine is a drinking barrier).

Hello Everyone,

I have had P for the last 35 years now and tried many different
things, the 2 best remedies that I have found is 1st a week or
two per year at a Dead sea resort and secondly lots of sun.

I too first learned about noni juice here and ordered 4 quarts over the net. Well Im halfway thru after doing two 1-ounce shots every morning and the results are very positive so far.

No noticable side effects and my P, which is usually fairly severe,
has began to recede in most places and clear up totally in others. Yes, the taste is bad but the results are well worth it and Im about to order my next supply again very soon.
