[Dysphagia] Noni juice

[dsmcslp at hotmail.com (DSMC Speech)]

Hello all:

I definitely feel silly writing this e-mail, but I have had two patients 
recently discuss the many benefits (?) of something called Noni Juice.  I 
had never heard of this before.  I am assuming their reports of cell 
rejuvenation, improved immunity, etc. are strictly antecdotal, but I would 
hate to make that assumption and be wrong.  Has anyone heard of this?  Any 
scientific data available to anyone's knowledge?  Apparently this product is 
very popular among people with cancer.

Thanks and have a safe 4th of July to those in the U.S.!!  (And a great 
weekend to all others!)
