jpeg Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Don't know if anyone's heard of it, but seems to be a natural remedy for many human ailments from heart disease to cancer (yes, well ...). I'm usually sceptical against claims of 'wonder drugs/juices', but a neighbour's been giving it to her ailing dog and I have to say, the dog seems to have been brought back from death's door. I asked my vet about this today, as I happened to be in her surgery anyway, and she brought it up on her computer and told me it's samoon prai (herb) called Yor in Thai and showed me the accompanying picture. I appear to have a tree in my garden and given the cost of the bottled stuff, thought I'd have a go at extracting the juice myself. Anyone have experience of this miracle 'cure all' here in Thailand?

Sceptict11 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 No such thing as a "miracle" cure all ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobraSnakeNecktie Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 A lot of people like it because it promotes some intestinal healing.. Cheap to buy and test on yourself. Can even grow it in the Thailand climate. Has to be sweetened because the natural taste and smell is really bad. It's bitter food and like other bitter foods good for liver, gallbladder etc. In hawaii we used to have snowball like fights with it as kids and if you got nailed by a ripe one then you will smell like rotting garbage for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infinity11 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 i have been interesting in trying this for quite some time perhaps now is the time best brands? how to choose? or just go for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobraSnakeNecktie Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 look in health food stores. They know how to extract and sweeten it to make it palatable. In Chiang Mai Baan Suan Pak and Aden health food stores sell it as fresh drink... It's in the 40 to 60 baht range for bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billzant Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I have read that noni juice has lots of good qualities. In Thailand noni is known as luuk yor. I haven't found the juice but I have found luuk yor tablets and take them. Hope you are keeping well, All the Best, BillZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpeg Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) I've just quick searched Noni fruit Thailand and this appears to be the more honest of all the bumph surrounding this juice http://noni-fruit-benefits.blogspot.com/. Most important is it warns those with kidney disease not to ingest it as it has a very high potassium content. Good I got to that before trying to give to my chronically renal failed dog Edited November 19, 2013 by jpeg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
