With the diwali having just passed, some of you may want to detox and re-energise your body. If you are looking for the perfect drink to detoxify your body, you’ve come to the right place. Have a shot of noni juice. Noni juice is derived from the fruit of a tropical evergreen plant called Noni (popularly known as Indian mulberry). It is a shrub native to Southern and South-East Asia and the Pacific islands, and is even mentioned in ancient Ayurvedic texts. The fruit of the noni has been used medicinally to boost the immune system and detoxify the body for thousands of years.  It is rich in powerful antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin B3 and iron. 

Here are all the ways in which it’s good for you.
