A story of life , a story about moringa ..... a 4000 years old story and still lives on . Re upload
from a while ago i stumbled upon an idea of a tree that has it all " to good to be true ", a super food , they call it moringa .
It all started when someone told my father (moringa is a great tree you should check it out) so as usual from my father .... my son i heard about this go check it out on the internet . & as usual from me ...... ok on it ; but only to forget about it .. so time goes on.
Until one day i was buying some trees and saw moringa i remembered and it was very cheap so i bought it and planted it and soon after it died ..... negligence , no watering so who's fault it was ... Yes the plant's fault i said , what a stupid plant and again i forgot all about it .
Until another incidence my neighbor and me were talking and i asked him ,what do you do with your time other than your job ? .
he said planting moringa in a large scale picking up leaves and let them to dry then making powder out of it & selling it . I said what a waist of time , what does moringa do any way & her comes the bomb ....... he didn't talk for a while i almost could see his brain thinking out loud
( how could I hook him up ... to much information and I'll drive him away ...to little he will not get the point ) so he said to me what can't moringa do , it has over 80 benefits every mineral vitamin you can think of ..... and topped it with , " you see this flat belly " i said yes , he said i got it by eating moringa seeds.
I couldn't stay out of it and i said , yes I know moringa what a stupid tree i bought one and died..... he said how much , i said 8 dinars , he said wow how expensive , i said waaaaaat , and he ran into his house and brought with him a handful of moringa seeds and said plant them they are fast growing and you will have for your self a tree in 4months .......
(This picture was a while ago now they've grown up I'll have a new pic of them shortly)
And that's all when I started researching moringa and planted some for my own.
So moringa what about it , at top of my head .
All vitamins , Most importantly Vitamins A , C AND all B vitamins as b12 and riboflavin
Minerals zink, iron, potassium and others.
All 20 essential amino acids that makes up proteins ( in a plant that is not heard of )
Carbohydrates and essential fatty acids and phospholipids , flavonoids
Antioxidants more than you will ever know , starting with vitamins C
anti-inflammatory and Microbial antibiotics
Lipid lowering agents , surger lowering agents.
Uses again at the top of my head....
1- tremendous nutritional value for pregnant women , breast feeding , & for malnourished infants and children.
Please see the famous 16 minutes discovery channel documentary , you will get a broad sense about the nutritional value.
2- treat specific deficiencies as vitamin A,C and iron deficiency anemia
3 - used to purify water , and as a soap for hand wash.
4- moringa tea as a cleansing agent
5- to loose weight
6-to improve diabetes type 2 , lipid profile and blood pressure
7- it's used 4000 years ago and until today for it's herbal remedies and medicinal properties
8- some emphasize the anti-cancer roll as for the Antioxidants
anti-inflammatory and anti-Microbial properties
I will elaborate more on these topics in the next post and more ....
There is a lot to talk about starting with the origin of the tree , to planting and harvest , not to mention all parts of the tree are edible .
A great kick start for you is this amazing discovery channel documentary about moringa followed by a wonderful wonderful German documentary with English subtitles .......
There is mention about diabetes hypertension arthritis depression osteoporosis and hip fracture rehabilitation loss of weight and energy regeneration.
Have a good time , take care , see you soon.
Please share , and take part in benefit of other people who will probably want to thank you from the bottom of there hearts one day.
