Dr. Ralph Heinicke, a noted American biochemist, had a potentially ground breaking revelation while studying
enzymes. He realized that a certain alkaloid he called Xeronine may play a key role in encouraging proper cell
function and growth in the human body. Xeronine is formed in the large intestine, where a chemical reaction
occurs between Proxeronine and Proxeronase. Dr. Heinicke discovered that these two substances exist in abundance
in the Morinda Citrifolia fruit. TAHITIAN NONI® Juice is the only product endorsed Dr. Ralph Heinicke and Dr.
Anne Hirazumi Kim, leading biochemist researchers.
What's So Great About Xeronine?
According to Dr. Heinicke's research, Xeronine may help to enlarge the pores in the walls of human cells and enable nutrients to
enter the cells more easily. In essence, Dr. Heinicke believes that Xeronine may improve the body's ability to make use of the
nutrients taken in after eating.

"The Morinda Citrifolia that grows in French Polynesia is about 20% higher in nutrients than is noni fruit from any other part of the world. TAHITIAN NONI® Juice is the only one I use in my practice and the only one I endorse."
