Moringa

I’ll be honest with you in the beginning I thought I was being crazy, can a plant that was used years ago still be available to us? Most importantly will it help my inflammation and pain? I began to read more into it and this is what I learned.

So moringa is a super plant that comes from Asia.

Moringa oleifera is a plant that is often called the drumstick tree, the miracle tree, the ben oil tree, or the horseradish tree. It is packed with beneficial amino acids and vitamins. It contains more than 92 nutrients and 46 types of antioxidants. It has been used for many deficiencies, and imbalances in the Chinese and Mexican culture as well.

I truly feel as if this plant has been placed on this Earth so when the time like this came, that weve become ill and western medicine fails up. We become aware and begin to learn everything we can to help our ill bodies regain our bodily health. Not only is it the perfect plant for us facing inflation here in the US, it’s a perfect supplement that will help everyday Americans that are on survival mode depleting themselves from life sustaining nutrients. We have become so comfortable feeding our bodies heavy compounds, metals, aluminum, and simple trash/fastfood instead of learning to supplement them with life.

The leaves are rich in minerals, vitamins and other essential phytochemicals. It is used as potential antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic and antimicrobial agent. M. oleifera seed, a natural coagulant is extensively used in water treatment.

This review explores the use of moringa across disciplines for its medicinal value and deals with cultivation, nutrition, commercial and prominent pharmacological properties of this “Miracle Tree”.

Moringa is an effective remedy for malnutrition and malnourishment. Moringa is rich in nutrition owing to the presence of a variety of essential phytochemicals present in its leaves, pods and seeds. In fact, moringa is said to provide 7 times more vitamin C than oranges, 10 times more vitamin A than carrots, 17 times more calcium than milk, 9 times more protein than yoghurt, 15 times more potassium than bananas and 25 times more iron than spinach. The fact that moringa is easily cultivable makes it a sustainable remedy for malnutrition. Countries like Senegal and Benin treat children with moringa. It has recently taken a larger insight by the LA people now that Gastrointestinal issues, and musculoskeletal have shot up this past year.

Children deprived of breast milk tend to show symptoms of malnutrition. Lactogogues are generally prescribed to lactating mothers to augment milk production. The lactogogue, made of phytosterols, acts as a precursor for hormones required for reproductive growth. Moringa is rich in phytosterols like stigmasterol, sitosterol and Kampe sterol which are precursors for hormones. These compounds increase the estrogen production, which in turn stimulates the proliferation of the mammary gland ducts to produce milk. It is used to treat malnutrition in children younger than 3 years. About 6 Spoonfuls of leaf powder can meet a woman’s daily iron and calcium requirements, during pregnancy.

Every part of M. oleifera is a storehouse of important nutrients and antinutrients. The leaves of M. oleifera are rich in minerals like calcium, potassium, zinc, magnesium, iron and copper. Vitamins like beta-carotene of vitamin A, vitamin B such as folic acid, pyridoxine and nicotinic acid, vitamin C, D and E also present in M. oleifera, Phytochemicals such as tannins, sterols, terpenoids, flavonoids, saponins, anthraquinones, alkaloids and reducing sugar present along with anti-cancerous agents like glucosinolates, isothiocyanates, glycoside compounds and glycerol-1-9-octadecanoate. Moringa leaves also have a low calorific value and can be used in the diet of the obese. The pods are fibrous and are valuable to treat digestive problems and colon cancer.

Research shows that immature pods contain around 46.78% fiber and around 20.66% protein content. Pods have 30% of amino acid content, the leaves have 44% and flowers have 31%. The immature pods and flowers showed similar amounts of palmitic, linolenic, linoleic and oleic acids. Moringa has lot of minerals that are essential for growth and development among which, calcium is considered as one of the important minerals for human growth.

While 8 ounces of milk can provide 300–400 mg, moringa leaves can provide 1000 mg and moringa powder can provide more than 4000 mg. Moringa powder can be used as a substitute for iron tablets, hence as a treatment for anemia. Beef has only 2 mg of iron while moringa leaf powder has 28 mg of iron.

Like why not share this with the world. It’s a good dietary intake of zinc is essential for proper growth of sperm cells and is also necessary for the synthesis of DNA and RNA. M. oleifera leaves show around 25.5–31.03 mg of zinc/kg, which is the daily requirement of zinc in the diet. It is often referred as a panacea and can be used to cure more than 300 diseases.
