Noni Juice is now available in most of the pharmacies in India, atleast in Bengaluru. You can even order it through online sites. The juice is widely known as Mullatha in Kerala and is a traditional fruit with medicinal values to cure cancer. The reason behind is because of its high levels of antioxidants.Antioxidants prevent cellular damage caused by molecules called free radicals. Your body requires a healthy balance of antioxidants and free radicals to maintain optimal health
The main antioxidants in noni juice include beta carotene, iridoids, and vitamins C and E
Exposure to tobacco smoke generates dangerous amounts of free radicals. Excessive amounts can cause cellular damage and lead to oxidative stress .
Oxidative stress is associated with many ailments, including heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Studies show that consuming foods rich in antioxidants may reduce oxidative stress.
In one study, heavy tobacco smokers were given 4 ounces (118 ml) of noni juice per day. After 1 month, they experienced a 30% reduction of two common free radicals compared to their baseline levels
Tobacco smoke is also known to cause cancer. Certain chemicals from tobacco smoke may bind to cells in your body and lead to tumor growth .
Noni juice may reduce levels of these cancer-causing chemicals. Two clinical trials found that drinking 4 ounces (118 ml) of noni juice daily for 1 month reduced the levels of cancer-causing chemicals in tobacco smokers by about 45% .
Yet, noni juice does not negate all of smoking’s negative health effects — and should not be considered a replacement for quitting.
