In 1993, food scientists John Wadsworth and Stephen Story discovered Noni fruit through a friend who had recently returned from French Polynesia.
They studied and researched the fruit for three years before successfully developing the methods for harversting, processing, and bottling the Noni's Juice without sacrificing its critical natural elements.
In July of 1996, they introduced TAHITIAN NONI® Juice to the United States. This is a significant achievement for several reasons :
- Noni Juice had never been before on the market anywhere in the world.
- John and Stephen succeeded in overcoming the difficulties involved in harvesting the fruit; it grows only in the wild and must be harvested in the wild.
- This tree bears fruit 365 days a year. Some of the biggest trees called Morinda Citrofolia have grown to heights of up to 35' feet tall. The largest and most productive of these trees can bear nearly two tons of fruit a month.
- For people who are not raised around Noni fruit, it has a slightly objectionable taste; John and Stephen were able to overcome this taste using only natural fruit Juices such as grape Juice and blueberry Juice.
- It is necessary to harvest Noni fruit at the correct stage of maturity in order to maintain the quality of the Juice.
- The harvested fruit must be handled properly in order to preserve the natural goodness.
