Moringa Plant
(Moringa oleifera)
Also known as the Horseradish tree, this is an attractive, fast-growing shrub to
small tree, with small feathery dark green leaves, with clusters of
pretty fragrant white flowers, followed by long tasty seed pods.
A good tree can produce as much as 1000 pods! It is considered to be one of
the most useful terrestrial plants on the planet.
The pods, seeds, leaves are all highly sought after, eaten as vegetables,
added to soups, salads curries and just about any other food combination.
Moringa also doubles as a potentially effective medicinal plant.
Health benefits
Moringa is packed with a range of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fibre and
is used for a myriad of health benefits, including hydration and detoxification,
eye and bone health, preventing numerous problems such as diabetes,
anemia, asthma, edema, kidney problems, high blood pressure and mood disorders.
Moringa leaves are said to contain 4 times more Vitamin A than a carrot,
7 times the vitamin C of an orange, 4 times more Calcium than milk, double the protein
of yoghurt and 3 times more Potassium than bananas.
It's like a natural multivitamin for the body.
