Question
Hi, i was just wondering how you felt about the beneficial properties of Noni Juice. The pamphlet basically seems to say it will cure anything. Have you ever used this in dogs and seen any success in treating certain illnesses? Thanks!

Answer
HI Rindi,
I hope you are well.  Yes, I have used Noni Juice on dogs (including my own).  We have a medium-large size dog and gave her 30mls per day.  She loved it and always lapped it up with no fuss.  Noni Juice is an excellent tonic, full of many benefits.  To maintain your health it is fine at the recommended doses.  I know my father took it and noticed that he was sleeping better than ever before in his life.  BUT - for it to work as a "cure-all" you would need to drink it in quite large doses - and this of-course becomes ridiculously expensive.  I know of people who have taken it for cancer and are really looking at drinking a bottle per day.
So, yes it is fine to give to your dog, to add some nutrients to their daily diet.
I hope this has been helpful.
With thanks.
Silva.
