Rating (out of 5): 2

Noni (Morinda citrifolia) has a long history of traditional use in Polynesian and Southeast Asian medicine, where it has been employed to support general wellness, including aspects that may relate to the glandular (endocrine) system. Traditional uses include supporting energy, immune function, and general vitality, which can be indirectly linked to glandular health. However, there is limited direct historical documentation specifically associating noni with endocrine or glandular system support.

Scientific studies on noni have mostly focused on its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-modulating properties. There is scant direct evidence that noni has effects on specific glands such as the thyroid, adrenal, or pituitary, or that it meaningfully modulates hormone levels in humans. Some animal studies have suggested potential adaptogenic or stress-mitigating effects, which could be loosely connected to glandular health, but the evidence is preliminary and not robustly validated in humans. No major clinical trials directly support noni’s efficacy for glandular system support.

In summary, the use of noni for glandular system support is rooted primarily in traditional practices, with indirect and limited evidence. There is insufficient scientific validation to confirm its effectiveness for this specific body system.
