Noni-Medicinal and Healthy Plant.

Last year while we had our monthly topic on medicinal plant I had in mind to write a post on this but never got it done. Now, here you are !!!

Health is wealth !!! Without a good health you may not be able to contribute effectively to the maps. One amazing thing is that both the fruit and the leaves are both medicinal. It is consumed as a staple fruit. I have also tried the juice, first drink every morning and it’s quite good for the general well being .Noni has been used traditionally to heal lots of ailments around the world.

  • Cold
  • Flu
  • Diabetes
  • Depression
  • Joint Ache and pain.
  • Bacterial and viral infections It is also an antioxidant and works as anti ageing agent.
  • This will be of interest to local guides, it helps to increase physical endurance. Incase you are going hiking or a long day of editing and photo shots.

The Ladies will be more interested in the fact, that it is good for the skin, hair growth combats hair loss.

It’s largely cultivated in the tropics and even in South Asia. Maybe our local guides from Bangladesh or even India will have an idea. It is good to note that Noni has some side effects which should also be mentioned here.

The first thing I noticed in my own experience on this is that, when it comes to Noni the smell is not very pleasant. I have also found out that, when consumed in excess or stored in the house the odour penetrates even the clothes.

  • Excess of it is toxic and can damage the liver.
  • When consumed in excess can also lead to diarrhea, in other words it’s a good laxative.
  • It has excess potassium which may causes arthritis.

Well as we say, Excess of anything is bad. While it’s a very medicinal and healthy fruit and plant, note that it should be consumed in modération.

Hope you like the post ,it may be of some health benefit to you some day. Have a good weekend.

Cheers

This is really an uncommon plant to me @SholaIB . In Bangladesh, I think we do not have this plant everywhere. I am very much amazed to see the healthy features of this plant. Thanks for sharing this nice post. Stay safe.

@SholaIB

I don’t think I know this plant but I am aware it will be around here.

This plant sounds so good and very medicinal.

Thank you for expanding my knowledge on this beautiful medicinal plant.

Have a great weekend.

Hello @MukulR

Am surprised it’s not common in Bangladesh. Is your climate not about the same as ours here in west Africa?

Thanks for your nice comment. Maybe it’s worth making a search ,I know you have discovered and shared a lot of post on flowers you found in your village. Maybe this plant will be somewhere in the villages.

Put them in the wine, keep for Along time and you drink a small cup a day @SholaIB every day.

It is very common here and have been here for a long time I think. I saw villagers plant it at home at many places.
