Noni fruit juice was fed to rats to evaluate its protective effects against carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induce acute liver injury. Rats that were pretreated with a placebo for 12 days experienced progressive liver lesions over a 24-hour period after being exposed to a single dose of CCl₄.  However, those pretreated with noni juice did not experience significant liver damage. These results suggest that noni juice is effective in protecting the liver.  (view original abstract at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2413119/).
