Hunger, Disease and the Moringa Tree of Life

A Miracle is Growing

Moringa Oleifera is a drought resistant tree that has a massive amount of nutritional value compacted to its leaves and roots. It is a life sustaining resource that is now being grown and used in Africa to prevent blindness, treat Aids patients and promote the self sufficiency of
 communities.

Is this true?

One gram of Moringa leaves is scientifically proven to contain 4 times the calcium that is found in milk. 7 times the vitamin C that is found in oranges, 4 times the vitamin a that is found in carrots, 3 times the potassium that is found in Bananas, and 2 times the protein found in milk.

Where is this tree?

The Moringa grows native in the sub Himalayan tracts of southern India, and tropical Arabia. Yet, it is being grown successfully in tropical Africa, tropical US, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Mexico, Malabar and the Philippine Islands. This tree flourishes in a tropical environment and survives during drought. It grows at an alarming rate and is often referred to as the "never dieing tree" because of its known survival abilties.

What are the problems ?

There are not enough trees and the general public is still not aware of the benefits.

What about you?

Weather you and your loved ones live in poverty or prosperity the Moringa can change your health. Science is backing up ancient beliefs of many Indian cultures. Many also now are evaluating the Indian beliefs that it is a cure for more than 300 diseases and it has proven to have massive benefits for all Aids sufferers.

Aids is all around us. As It devastates the entire continent of Africa it is also still spreading through highly industrialized nations. The killing power of Aids works had in had with malnutrition. Thus, the distribution of The Maringa not only breeds individual survival but, also promotes the building of self reliant communities of Africa.

Are there other uses?

Oh yes, The Moringa is being used not only to sustain life through poverty, drought, and disease. It is being used successfully to purify water, treat cuts, scratches, cracks and some signs of aging.

It has also been proven to lower a diabetics blood sugar within 3 hours of ingestion.

Jake please be careful as part of the root is also toxic- rather stick to leaves, flowers and seed.. The seed works well for water purification without alum. check out http://www.university.zoomshare.com/

Check out Zija. It is the moringa plant powder that you mix in an 8 ounce bottle of water and shake up. It has all of the nutritional values of the moringa tree becasue the power is made from all parts of the tree except for the bark which can be toxic. Simply pour shake and drink and it doesnt taste bad at all. Enjoy

I have been following the stories of this tree and I am fascinated. I would like to know where one can find some seedlings or seeds in Southern Africa.

Our company is presently engaged in setting up a 200 hectares Moringa plantation in the north of Ghana. Mr. Lowell Fuglie, one of the world 's leading experts on Moringa cultivation, has joined our company as senior partner and director and is spearheading the operation. We also have acquired plant and machinery to extract the precious Moringa oil, which is superior to olive oil in terms of nutritional benefits, however less popular due to lack of large scale advertising campaigns.
