Numerous studies have already been conducted regarding the medicinal properties of moringa, and it has been found to be beneficial for many conditions, ranging from skin diseases to hypertension, diabetes, kidney stones, tuberculosis, and even tumors.

In Ayurvedic medicine, moringa is cited to have the ability to treat more than 300 illnesses and diseases.

Aside from vitamins, moringa is also rich in minerals, antioxidants, and antibacterial and tissue protective properties. The number of nutrients it contains is staggering: 92 nutrients, 46 antioxidants, 36 anti-inflammatories, 18 amino acids, and nine essential amino acids!

So what does that mean for you? It means if you choose to incorporate moringa into your daily diet, your body will be able to:

Fight Free Radicals. These cause oxidative stress and cell damage, thereby making your organs healthy and helping them to function optimally.

Fight Inflammation. Helps treating chronic diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, respiratory problems, and cardiovascular diseases while even reducing or avoiding obesity.

Protect Your Brain From Alzheimer’s. Moringa’s antioxidants and neuro-enhancers improve cognitive function and support brain health.

Ward Off And Fight Infections. Moringa’s natural antimicrobial and antibacterial properties are effective against a host of microbes, bacteria, and fungi that are responsible for all kinds of infections.

The most convenient and enjoyable way to take moringa is by its powder form.

    Super plant. I bought 4 oz of seeds last year (about $25), have 20 plants/shrubs/trees growing now, gave away a bunch of plants, and bought another 4 oz of seeds last week. Some folks put the powder in a salt shaker and add to whatever is on the plate. I eat the leaves off the trees, it is so easy, not terrible at all.

        Rian: Either or, but if you want the roots for horseradish, you have to plant seeds. If you have a problem with drought or wild pigs and rabbits, then seeds. niio

      I couldn’t find anything called kraft butter but you can buy Red Feather brand canned butter at places like Amazon, Emergency Essentials (beprepared.com) and others. Red Feather comes from New Zealand. Though I’ve never tried it, you can even can your own butter.

    This is my favorite supplier. I have bought one four oz package of seeds each year for past three years. I think $25 for package and $7 shipping. I soak and inoculate (with fungi sent with the seeds) and allow to sprout and plant and give away the seeds, and grow the trees (along with other edible trees). Huge difference in growth rates at different locations in my little yard. No need to water after get started. They do not like the cold but if develop a good root system they will come back after freeze. Easy to grow in Orlando. South (warmer) side of home may be best

    Wow, this is a good article.

    No mangosteen, it’s not tolerant of out gentle zone 9 winters 🙂 How I wish, tho!

    Ginger: After harvest, wash and freeze whole. It won’t look like fresh, but tastes the same.

    Moringa. We appear to be on the northern fringe for it in the garden. One thing I learned was, do not water much. It also does well in the house. But, again not too much water. Let it wilt, if you have to, and then water. Nor do they like rich soil. They developed on poor, gravel soils in the Himalaya foothills.

    Moringa is one of the few things that will chase off javelina pigs. Chili peppers are another, and horseradish 🙂

    Dried or fresh, leaves are put in anything being cooked. Not a lot, but enough to see them. niio
