Noni Juice and a Heart Stint

Q: I HAVE RECENTLY HAD A HEART STINT PUT IN AT THE HOSPITAL. I HAVE BEEN DRINKING NONI JUICE FOR ABOUT A YEAR. I REALLY THINK THAT IT HAS HELPED ME IN MANY WAYS AS MY HEALTH GOES. I CAN FIND NO ONE THAT KNOWS IF IT IS OK FOR ME TO CONTINUE DRINKING NONI WITH MY NEW STINT. CAN YOU HELP ME. THANKS LARRY

A: Dear Larry,

I see no reason, medically or otherwise, why you can’t continue drinking your noni juice. You are probably right that it has helped. Take care of yourself and if you ever have any other questions, please feel free to e-mail me. Please read important data below.

Sincerely,

Marcus Ettinger DC, BSc.
