Heart-warming stories about how Moringa is being used to help people span the globe from malnourished children in Africa to people with AIDS in America. And one of the most wonderful things about Moringa is the way it's bringing together good people around the world to spread the benefits of Moringa to everyone who needs it.
.Moringa provides antioxidants, proteins, vitamins, amino acids, flavonoids, fibers, minerals, chlorophyll, beta carotene and phenols benefits. It even contains all 9 essential amino acids, which is unusual for a plant source.
Unlike synthetic vitamins and supplements, Moringa naturally combines its nutrients with over 46 antioxidants and 36 anti-inflammatory compounds which are well absorbed by the body.
Moringa trees have been used to combat malnutrition, especially among infants and nursing mothers. Since moringa thrives in arid and semiarid environments, it may provide a versatile, nutritious food source throughout the year. Moringa leaves have been proposed as an iron-rich food source (31% Daily Value per 100 g consumed) to combat iron deficiency, though further study is needed to test practical applications.
Moringa has numerous applications in cooking throughout its regional distribution. The fruits or seed pods, known as drumsticks, are a culinary vegetable commonly used in soups and curries. The leaves are also commonly eaten with many culinary uses, and the flowers are featured in some recipes as well.
The bark, sap, roots, leaves, seeds and flowers are used in traditional medicine. Research has examined how it might affect blood lipid profiles, although it is not effective at diagnosing, treating, or preventing any human diseases. Extracts from leaves contain low contents of polyphenols which are under basic research for their potential properties. Despite considerable preliminary research on the biological properties of moringa components, there are few high-quality studies on humans to justify its use to treat human diseases.
In developing countries, moringa has the potential to improve nutrition, boost food security, foster rural development, and support sustainable landcare. It may be used as forage for livestock, a micronutrient liquid, a natural anthelmintic, and possible adjuvant. Moringa oleifera leaf powder was as effective as soap for hand washing when wetted in advance to enable anti-septic and detergent properties from phytochemicals in the leaves.
Moringa Tree is a nutritionally potent plant and the entire tree can be used for medicine or for food. It is called a miracle tree for these reasons and because it can grow in almost any conditions. Many parts of moringa are edible,with regional uses varying widely: Immature seed pods, called "drumsticks", Leaves Mature seeds, Oil pressed from seeds Flowers. It comes close to being a perfect source of nutrients and is currently being used in parts of the world to fight malnutrition with amazing results.
The leaves are the most nutritious part of the plant, being a significant source of B vitamins, vitamin C, provitamin A as beta-carotene, vitamin K, manganese, and protein, among other essential nutrients. When compared with common foods particularly high in certain nutrients per 100 g fresh weight, cooked moringa leaves are considerable sources of these same nutrients.
The immature seed pods, called "drumsticks", are commonly consumed in South Asia. They are prepared by parboiling, and cooked in a curry until soft. The seed pods/fruits, even when cooked by boiling, remain particularly high in vitamin C (which may be degraded variably by cooking) and are also a good source of dietary fiber, potassium, magnesium, and manganese.
The seeds, sometimes removed from more mature pods and eaten like peas or roasted like nuts, contain high levels of vitamin C and moderate amounts of B vitamins and dietary minerals. Mature seeds yield 38–40% edible oil called ben oil from its high concentration of behenic acid. The refined oil is clear and odorless, and resists rancidity. The seed cake remaining after oil extraction may be used as a fertilizer or as a flocculent to purify water. Moringa seed oil also has potential for use as a biofuel.
The roots are shredded and used as a condiment with sharp flavor qualities deriving from significant content of polyphenols.
