Moringa leaves
Moringa oleifera comes from the Himalayan region in northwest India and now grows worldwide in the tropical regions of Africa, Arabia, Southeast Asia and the Caribbean islands. The tree is used in a variety of ways and is cultivated intensively. The Moringa tree can survive dry periods by collecting the water in the family tree and grows quickly in good conditions. It is also called the “tree of life” because of its nutritional composition, as well as a large range of vitamins, essential amino acids, polyphenols and minerals, with which it surpasses other plants in the amount available. In English-speaking countries it is also called the horseradish tree because of the mustard oil glycosides it contains in the roots, which smell like horseradish. The leaves of the Moringa tree contain all essential amino acids (proteins; all eight that have to be supplied) and fatty acids in significant quantities, as well as a wide range of vitamins and minerals. The Moringa leaves are rich in vitamins A, E, B2, B6, C and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and sodium, as well as trace elements such as zinc, copper and chromium. The Moringa tree has a high concentration of phytochemicals such as anthocyanins, beta-carotene, lutein, quercetin, kaempferol, tannin, ellagic acid, saponins and terpenes, which have a strong antioxidant potential and fight free radicals. The juice from the leaves is used in the growing regions to combat malnutrition and anemia. In the Philippines, the tree increases the amount of milk in breastfeeding mothers and their children are optimally supplied with vitamins and nutrients. The same effect also applies to mammals such as cows. All parts of the plant of the Moringa tree are used in the local, traditional medicine of India, Sri Lanka, Java and Africa. The juice or leaves are used to stabilize blood pressure. The leaves also have an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect, and the roots are used to treat rheumatic complaints. The alkaloid spirochine preserved in the roots has antibacterial properties and is used as an antibiotic. Moringa helps with bone fractures thanks to the abundant calcium it contains, allows inflammatory osteoarthritis and arthritis pain to cure, is a tonic that provides vitality, energy, good concentration and endurance. Vegetarians and people with blood group A, who often avoid animal foods, benefit from the iron and other minerals contained in the moringa leaves. Because of the chromium obtained, which helps burn sugar in the cells, and rich minerals, Moringa leaves are also suitable for weight loss. The dried leaves can also be ground and added to many foods and drinks. The Moringa leaves are recommended for all diseases and complaints because they compensate for deficiencies in minerals, trace elements, vitamins and proteins and thereby initiate healing processes.
