Way back in August 2005, back when I had a decent and reliable internet connection (Oh, how I long for those days!!!) Yahoo! Member darin992002 popped into the HIV/AIDS chat room and said that "Noni juice is a miracle drug for HIV" and that it cured him of being paralyzed.
The only way I can think that any sort of juice would cure paralysis is if the paralysis was caused by dehydration. So I can only think that Darin here was severely dehydrated. Big whoop. Water would have done that.
As far as Noni juice being a "miracle drug for HIV", well, I can only direct you to http://noni.worldwidewarning.net/ which is a somewhat comprehensive listing of all the problems surrounding both the distribution and promotion of noni juice. Needless to say (at least around this blog), Noni Juice does N-O-T-H-I-N-G. And, in fact, might even be harmful. So, Darin992002 is full of shit.

About This Blog
There is no known cure for AIDS. This blog is intended to ridicule those who think there is.
History: After chatting in the HIV/AIDS chat room on Yahoo!Chat for a while, I was amazed at how many so-called Cures for AIDS that were being perpetrated by some people in the chat room. There were (and are) so many that I began to joke with friends saying, "Today's Cure for AIDS is.... [fill in the blank]". That's when the idea of this blog took form.
People who perpetuate these false cures do more damage than good. They offer false hope where there is none and prey on a desperate population in the sole interest of making money for themselves. They claim to be benevolent but they aren't. They claim to only want to help, but they're actually causing deaths from their harmful statements. Their "cures" are often dangerous and possibly deadlier than HIV itself. They are the modern day "snake oil salesmen"; peddling their wares from the mule-cart of today--the Internet.
This blog used to be titled "AIDS Cure of the Day™" but after moving to an area without high speed internet connection, daily updates proved to be unreliable.
