Recent Scientific Study Shows Noni Juice May Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease.

The most prevalent killer in the United States is not obesity, diabetes, or cancer. It is heart disease. Heart disease will kill one out of every three Americans *1. According to the American Heart Association, over 60 million Americans currently suffer from some form of cardiovascular disease, including high blood pressure, stroke and heart disease *2. The most dramatic recent finding is that heart disease can be prevented and even reversed by a healthy diet *3.

Lowering your cholesterol can reduce the risk of Heart Disease. When there is too much cholesterol in your bloodstream, it builds up in the walls of your arteries. Overtime, the result of this build up is hard artery walls (a process known as atherosclerosis). As the artery walls become hard the circumference of the artery is decreased and blood flow to the heart muscle is less frequent or blocked. Blood carries oxygen to the heart, and if you don’t receive enough blood and oxygen to the heart, then you may suffer intense chest pain. When blood supply to a portion of the heart is completely cut off or blocked by the buildup, the outcome is a heart attack.

In 2006, researchers presented findings that noni juice might be an effective natural supplement to help smokers with high cholesterol lower their total cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The findings were reported at the American Heart Association's 46th Annual Conference on Cardiovascular Disease Epidemiology and Prevention.
