Pain killer fruit. The leaves are warmed and wrapped around painful body parts to effect relief.

We call it painkiller as well. It is a garbage plant so sometimes referred to as the starvation fruit. Many call it 'Noni' due to its resemblance to the Annona family ex. Sour Sop, Custard Apple, though it is not related.

I have tried it and it's disgusting, but at the same time very enjoyable. I recommend this to anyone who has a "noni" in front of them.
