Have you heard about Moringa oleifera, a fast-growing tree that originates from South Asia and that is found throughout the tropics?

Well, the leaves of this tree have been long used in the traditional medicine, and the Ayurvedic system of medicine connects this tree with the treatment and prevention of around 300 diseases.

This tree, Moringa, is also called ‘drumstick tree’, ‘miracle tree’ and ‘horseradish tree’. It has tiny, rounded leaves which are abundant in a huge number of nutrients: calcium, protein, vitamin C, beta-carotene, potassium… almost all nutritive ingredients are packed in them. This explains the long tradition of its medicinal use, as well as dietary use, of about 4,000 years and more.

When it comes to digestive values, moringa is rich in fiber and it is said that it works as a mop in your intestines and cleanses any excess waste left over from a greasy diet. We also need to mention moringa’s high isothiocyanates content, which makes it powerful antibiotic and highly efficient in eliminating the Helicobacter pylori from your body, a bacterium known to cause gastritis, ulcers and gastric cancer.

The seed of this tree is even found to purify the water, and it does that even better than most of the conventional synthetic materials that are being used nowadays.

The leaves of Moringa are abundant in vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids and much more ingredients.

In 100 grams of dry moringa leaves there is:

  • 9 times more protein than in yogurt
  • 10 times more vitamin A than in carrots
  • 15 times more potassium than in bananas
  • 17 times more calcium than in milk
  • 12 times more vitamin C than in oranges
  • 25 times more iron than in spinach

Moringa leaves also contain plenty of antioxidants, such as quercetin, vitamin C, chlorogenic acid and beta-carotene. The chlorogenic acid is known to slow down the absorption process of sugar in the cells. Studies conducted on animals have shown that the levels of blood sugar in the animal’s organism have been reduced.

A study was conducted on women as well and it was found that those women who take seven grams of moringa leaf powder per day for a period of three months had decreased levels of fasting blood sugar by 13.5 percent.

Other studies have discovered that moringa leaves also have anti-tumor and anti-cancer effects, which is a result of the presence of a compound called niaziminin. Preliminary testing also reveals an activity against the Epstein-Barr virus. Some ingredients in the leaves of moringa also help in the regulation of the thyroid function, especially when it comes to hyper-active thyroid. Another study has found some evidence of antiviral activity of moringa in cases of Herpes simplex 1.

There are even more plants which are part of some traditional medicinal systems of many cultures that have numerous benefits and uses that still need to be discovered and examined. Moringa oleifera itself was unknown to the wider market about ten years ago, and it gains greater popularity thanks to its multiple health benefits and nutritional values as a food.

Moringa is a highly beneficial plant medicine that deserves a place in everyone’s home pharmacy.

Even though it is widely cultivated throughout Africa, Asia, Central America and the Caribbean, the biggest Moringa crop in the world is placed in India, the country where it grows natively. According to some data, moringa might be the reason for the stunningly low death rate from pancreatic cancer in India, which is 84 percent lower than the one in the United States.

You can even find moringa supplements on the market.
