INTERESTING APPEARANCE.
A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK IT LOOKS
STRANGE.

VISUAL APPEARANCE MAY WELL
MAKE UP IN HEALTH BENEFIT.

SMALL FAMILY BUSINESS ON THE
WINDWARD SIDE OF OAHU WHO USES
THE FRUIT IN THEIR PRODUCTS.

WELL, WE BEGAN WITH THE
NONI JUICE.
AND THE CAPSULES.
THAT IS ALSO MADE FROM WHOLE
FRUIT.
USE A D DEHYDRATION PROCESS.
IT'S VERY STRONG.
MOST OF THE CAPSULES YOU'LL
SEE ON THE MARKET IS MADE FROM
FREEZE DRIED PROCESS USING
PULP SO YOU LOSE POTENCY.
WE TAKE A LOT OF PRIDE OF OUR
POTENCY AND QUANTUM OF OUR
PRODUCTS -- QUALITY OF OUR
PRODUCTS.
Trini: FOR PEOPLE WHO MAY
NOT BE FAMILIAR WITH NONI,
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE BENEFITS?
WE'VE HAD A LOT OF
CUSTOMERS TAKE IT TO HELP WITH
DIABETES.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS.
HAS A LOT OF BENEFITS THERE.
PEOPLE TAKE IT FOR MUSCLE AND
JOINT PAINS, ARTHRITIS,
FATIGUE, BUT REALLY, NONI IS
PACKED SO MUCH WITH VITAMINS
AND MINERALS, THAT IT'S JUST
KIND OF GIVES YOU IMMUNE A
BASEBALLBASIC BOOST AND KEEPS YOUR

THE GREEN SEAL OF QUALITY
LABELS.
