Benefits of Noni Juice - cheaper and available locally

Live healthy and long

Why pay more and patronize imported products?   Patronize the products that are produced locally that are power packed with nutrients, even more than over hyped imported products.  Be benefitted with more for less.

Some herbal, alternative medicine sell more because of the hype, not because they are better

This blogger came across a herbal product that did very very well in just five years, growing from mere P500,000 sales in first year to over P140,000,000 this year.  It is a berry juice with its main component imported from abroad.   It commands a hefty price, does not use mlm, and uses a different marketing strategy. Very briefly, it sells more because there is more benefit but because there is more hype.

On the other hand, there is this local juice that sells only 30% of its production locally and the rest exported to Japan and Korea (another case of the prophets not known in its own country).It only managed to grow  to 1/7 of the size of the sales of the imported product.

The imported product faces great risk because it is imported and the foreign currency fluctuation does not favor imported goods.  Furthermore, the shelf life is limited because the potency of their product is affected by the shelf life.

The indications are the same:   cancer prevention, better over all health, more energy, for more potency as a male.   They could be very well considered generic product but the difference lies in marketing.

So why pay more;  patronize our own native products and give more jobs to Pilipinos if the product is cheaper and as effective

From Naturally Proven

There has been allure of more income (multi level marketing) and more business for distributors to reap huge profits from the masses through spin and huge adspend.  say like on Acai berry, on mangosteen, wheat and barley grass.  They claim to have huge health benefits such as more energy, strong immune system, better circulation, cancer cures.  But most are anecdotal and story telling and not  supported by research.  Furthermore, having been processed for capsule or other forms, they would have lost their potency or bio availability.

Better go for Naturals

I just came yesterday from a product and strategic plan presentation of Acai Berry Juice distribution in the Philippines and was wondering about the claims made as to efficacy, active components that re beneficial to the drinkers/users.  At P1,800  per 500 ml container, the Acai Berry whose contents are made and exported from USA, and whose berries come from South America, are not cheap.  And yet the Noni juice contents seem to be similar with Acai berry and would be cheaper since Noni trees abound in the Philippines.  I came across a professor who from Los Banos, from UP formerly from FAO who manufactures and markets Noni Juice and other variants here and abroad.  Acai berry targets the health conscious AB and emerging C (middle class) Primary Target Market and employs premium pricing

Noni juice is more competitive and higher phytonutrients

The Noni juice looks like a value for money and would help the  local industries/Filipinos more.   But the Acai Berry is a P140 million business.

From immunehealth - mango, strawberry and grapes have higher anti oxidant content that Acai berry

 And yet these fruits have higher anti oxidants than acai berry:   mango, strawberry and grapes.    Why spend more

MX 3 which comes in various format and in affordable packages  like tea and tablets.   Acai Berry is in tablet and liquid form.

What are  they supposed to be good for:   1.  Increased energy   2. Increased circulations (as there is less inflammation of the blood vessels.  3.  Vs cancer since they are contain anti oxidants   4. For strengthening the immune system

I was warned by my family physician that a mangosteen extract capsules which retail for P20+ is absolutely worthless.  No effect at all for any symptoms, even for more energy and better sleep as claimed by a fellow senior citizen.  I tried it when I had painful eye infection and the Dr. was right.

The products which are marketed in processed form lose their high potency in fresh form, as the phytonutrients lose their potency as their molecules are processed.   Thus being organic and natural becomes a false claim.

We buy because of huge adspend and the spin
