The Moringa plant, officially known as Moringa Oleifera Lam, is also known as the drumstick or horseradish tree. It is native to the dry tropical forests of northwest India and the foothills of the Himalayas. Moringa is derived from a Tamil word, Murungai, which means “twisted pod.” Traditionally, the Moringa plant has been considered medicinal in Ayurvedic Medicine. History tells us that ancient rulers included moringa leaves in their diet routine to “keep up mental health and smooth skin.” Today, Moringa is found to grow in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide - it thrives in China, south Asia, India, Arabia, Africa, The Pacific Islands, the Caribbean,and the Philippines. here in Hawaii, it is everywhere - it grows like a weed! all parts of the Moringa tree are edible and have long been consumed by humans. The flowers, unripened fruits and leaves are used for cooking worldwide. Almost all parts of the Moringa plant are considered valuable - and not just for food. Here Are just some of the ways you can use the moringa tree: food ingredients, nutraceuticals, medicine, water sanitization, animal forage, cleaning agents, fertilizer, charcoal, Machine lubrication oil, gum, pulp, rope, tannin, and biofuel production.
Some experts consider Moringa the “famine food,” - it has been used to combat malnutrition. The tree is fast growing - it can grow up to 2 whole meters in the first year and is up to 12 meters tall once mature. The tree will grow well in sub fertile soil, and the leaves become mature at the end of the dry season, when many other sources of food are not available. In addition, the leaves can be eaten fresh, cooked, or stored as a dried powder for many months without refrigeration. Talk about a useful and convenient food source! Different parts of the Moringa tree are used in more than eighty countries to supplement mineral and vitamin deficiencies, especially in breast-feeding mothers and young children.
People are even calling moringa the new kale! One researcher even claims that moringa is “the most nutrient rich plant yet discovered ” . Why is that? Well, compared to Kale, moringa has two times the protein, three times the calcium, four times the iron and two and a half times the fiber! Talk about a superfood!
It is rare for a single plant to contain that many essential nutrients, and even more rare for these nutrients to be available in high quantities. Moringa checks the boxes on this.
So how exactly does moringin work? It works a lot like sulforaphane. Moringin targets three important pathways in our bodies. It has been shown to activate a pathway called Nrf-2 which, in lay terms, could be considered the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant pathway. It shuts down another pathway called nf kappa b - which, In lay terms, could be considered a pro inflammatory pathway. Lastly, moringin activates heat shock proteins - which we are still learning a whole lot about - but we do know they are beneficial for overall health and longevity.
The five most studied health benefits of moringa are:
Number one. Antibacterial activity
number two. Anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects.
Number three. Cancer chemo prevention
number four. Anti-diabetic activity and stabilization of blood sugar levels
number five. Anti-asthmatic activity
I had arthritis in both hands and developed neuropathy in both hands....burning, pins and needles and tingling. Started taking half a teaspoon of Moringa powder with 2 ounces of warm water every morning. No more arthritis and neuropathy is gone. a MIRACLE
Which brands of moringa did you
use
I use Prairie Naturals. Made with Organic Moringa. I take 5 capsules one at at time
@@padimills1494 thank you
Very good morning thank s
Thanks for sharing your experience. I am going to try as well. GOD Bless.
This stuff gave me my life back. I was in so much knee and shoulder pain until I took this. All gone now 🙏
How long did it take for the pain to go away?? I have very bad arthritis and I been taking MORINGA for six days now and I still have pain
@@lynebenoit5124 LOL, 6 days, it took a lot longer to get the pain/arthritis, hopefully you gave it time. Unfortunately, living this cray world of immediate satisfaction people have a hard time with the natural way of doing helpful healthy natural ways which have not the crazy side effects of chemicals aka drugs with all kinds of bad side effects. Hope its worked for you.
BTW, my understanding, for some natural health Dr's say it works for osteoarthritis but not rheumatoid arthritis.
My apologies, I believe I had it backwards good for rhumatoid arthritis but not osteo, who knows, it works f great for my body.
Which brand
I'm Indian and I started eating Moringa ...cooked with onions and dry chillies and extra garlic..even though it's bitter,I simply loved it
Sounds delicious!
Thank you once again Dr Omole on CZcams for this information. Since following you (for some years now), my kidney stage results has decrease from stage 3 to stage 1. You saved me from dialysis. Thank you and please keep the videos coming!! God Bless 🙏🏽
Dr. Dyken thank you so much, u covered this subject very well, yes it is a super food, I am an Indian n we indians eat the leaves sauted with dry chillies , onion n salt, drumstick cooked with dhal. It is a poor man's super food. Thank you again.
So nice of you, thank you!

This miracle tree is common and abound in the Philippines once you plant it, it can't be killed it will always thrive .
I live in Texas and have grown moringa in my garden for six years. In Texas, it will not survive our winters but usually comes back from the roots each year. I start several trees from seeds every year to make sure I always have trees.
Can moringa cure fibroids? How much can one take if its possible
@gladysmashonganyika1691 just try drinking it as a tea in the morning. Afternoon drink 16 Oz smoothie or juice. U might want to add a little honey to reduce the bitter taste ❤❤😊😊. Do this daily for 3 months. Then check your health
I just Relocated from America to Africa. This tree is wasting here. Plenty all over. I've started drinking Moringa tea, smoothie, juice and powder. I'm going to make a farm of Moringa tree and begin sell it to the westerners. 😊❤
In African countries pregnant women are given moringa leaves thru prenatal clinics for its nutrition and prevention of birth defects.
I ate fresh moringa leaves in my garden while watching this video. Moringa is very easy to grow in west central Florida near Tampa.
May I ask how you came about purchasing the Moringa tree? I'm interested in having one.
Another video I watched said something about moringa growing well in dry, hard soil with very little water. So that is supposed to be one of the reasons as to why it's being promoted to be grown in Africa for indigenous people over their. (I would guess it would grow well in the Australian Outback as well.)
@Moringa Mike i didn't see a video on your channel
I’ve been using Moringa powder in my smoothies. My chronic back pain is greatly improved
I love this! Glad your pain is greatly improved!
How much do you use?

I’m in West Central Arizona, Lake Havasu CITY, AZ. Just planted a 12” Moringa Tree got on line. We thought it died in the mail? Nope! Put in a 24” diameter pot on back patio, full sun. After 5 days and all the original leaves falling off it’s starting to grow and get leaves again! I’ll have to move it around if it gets too hot or the one or two days a year it gets down into the 30’s. I grow Citrus trees also and never had a cold problem for 23 years!
For those a new mom willing to do a breastfeeding to a new born baby. Moringa is so helpful just put the leaves in your soup and your breast will full of milk
Thanks for this vital info of moringa or malunggay in the Phils.
Thanks Doc! You're the best. 🙂
I was suffering from high RA.joint pain can't hold my tea cup. Taking moringa now I feel better .seems I didn't have pain .
Moringa is one of our vegies in the Philippines.
Our olds says that it is good for nursing mothers eating moringa inoder to produce more milk for their babies
Very good
I just Relocated from America to Africa. This tree is wasting here. Plenty all over. I've started drinking Moringa tea, smoothie, juice and powder. I'm going to make a farm of Moringa tree and begin sell it to the westerners. 😊❤
Great idea!! 👍
Thank you for the reminder about moringa! I'm going to find some to plant in my yard today! Can you do a video about neem?
Planning Moringa seeds just before spring ,I have found seeds that didn’t sprout some time will stay in the ground and will sprout the next year if planted in late summer or in fall
I've heard good things about neem. I can't remember just what. Something about helping to fix candida overgrowth in the lower intestine.
Informative .......❤ Thank you
Thanks a lot for this vidéo
Very well explanation dear.
Excellent presentation. Is it also helpful in prostrate issues?
Ive got H.Pylori. I will try some of this miracle powder.

One of mine favourite vegetable
Thank you!❤
Interesting, I've been taking Morninga for years. Powder in my morning tea. I recently looked up what the plant looked like. I used to be married to a Philippin'o person in my twenties. I made his mother's recipe of what he called chicken Kalamunggay. I now realize it's Morninga. Who knew it was so great? I guess I did😏 I lived in Hawaii we used to pick it from the tree. Fantastic. I'm back in Hawaii I'll search out the real thing.
God bless u mam exccellent
Thank you so much for this excellent summary of great detail on moringa. Can I just ask whether its anti-h.pylori effect can be used as prevention from getting this infection e.g. on eating outdoors?
I would not rely on it for that, but definitely a possibility.
Thank u
Thank you for your wonderful video. I am a Diabetic 2 so I am really interested. Thank you.
I was a diabetic 2 wend I started taking this stuff it changes every thing iam now diabetes free so I can say yes it work for me and also I had high blood pressure but not no more I am free of everything I also took seamoss 😊😊😊
Hi Dr what an awesome presentation. I have swelling feet n legs will drinking Moringa help me? I tried everything. Please advice❤
Wow, had no idea. I just have seen it offered at Marshalls and Ross alongside teas.
Get the organic powder ones, those go great with fruit shakes
Order it organic on Amazon
Works amazing
In the Philippines, as along as I can remember, we regularly use moringa in many of our food/soup recipes. Its just of one those things we took for granted as normal to us. But now its being highly marketed as a health drink by offering them in grounded leaves, to be steeped like tea .
I just started on Moringa and so far so good. It use to take weeks to hear any kind of wounds on my legs and in a little over a week on Moringa my legs are clear. My wife laughs about this because she is from the Philippines and here family has two of these trees and pay little attention to them.
EXCELLENT INFORMATIVE SITE (No Nonsense).
My sister -in-law brushed with Baking Soda since she started brushing and had excellent white teeth UNTIL SHE DIED at the age of 90.
traditions is more accurate than studies since also the researchers rarely are experts and not exacly easy to know the perfect usage of a plant and how to collect the plant and from where
wildcrafted ? from where organic? and most of the type they are used in formulas with other helpers to boost thier effectiveness and reduce their side effects
I live in the mid Atlantic which isn't warm enough to grow moringa. I've been using dried powdered moringa. Is it as good for you as fresh moringa?
Grew up eating this stuff every other day or so. I never thought of it as a super food.
I have a question pertaining to using Moringa as a tea. I am used to hot coffee but had to stop coffee because of blood pressure etc. I currently use hot water for Moringa tea with a teaspoon of honey. Am I destroying the affects of Moringa or the Honey by using hot water instead of warm water?
very info
I can't confirm this but one lady consumed Moringa juice for column cancer. After 2 months, the cancer was gone.
What is column cancer?

Really amazing I have started taking spirulina with moringa and Amla and ashwagandha regularly thanks for beneficial information
I grew up in the philippines, we ate a lots of moringa leaves and pods
Great Video INDEED
We Srilankans eat Murunga leaves with Prawn curry and with Coconut milk so delicious ! 😋
Even nice with 🦀 !
It’s really originated from Philippines that’s why it’s everywhere in Hawaii just because of the Filipinos
We boil and make a very delicious soup in the phil for moringga leaves.
Thanks for the information. Well said and done. I use it daily and feel energetic and I sleep very good at night. Good luck and do more research.

Thank you Dr Dyler! What a thorough research you have about Moringa. It cannot be overemphasize. I incorporate everyday powdered moringa in boiling my rice from trees in my own backyard.
You rock Lea😎
Thank you I'm so much in pain how can I order
Love your edu videos, so great you don't shrink from the science and at same time let non-sciencers skip ahead…am I right in concluding from this video that, since you can backload myrosinase into cooked Moringa to activate the isothiocyanates by eating the moringa w daikon/mustard, that the same holds for eating broc sprouts w daikon/mustard? Would that skyrocket the sprouts' bioavail of its sulforaphane? Thank you
I appreciate that! Yes, your logic is sound: adding daikon/mustard to broccoli sprouts really does increase the bioavailability of sulforaphane!
Kinda like how black pepper activates turmeric. I used to think black pepper was a liver toxin.
They also put it in co e Q 10 formulas.
It's in my back yard lots here we cook it in soups and teas the Caribbean posee it
I ordered good quality moringa powder and make my own capsules at a fraction of the cost now I can afford to take moring when I want.i also take it with my turmeric mix capsules and the two just love to work together..I use moringa oil on my face and body my skin is looking more and more radiant..and all naturally

I need to make more use of moringa
We call that moringa as our favorite veggies in Philippines.. malunggay...nice to mix in some veggies for chicken soup or any veg.soup or fish soup
Moringa cuttings grow faster . The young soft pods can be cooked like okra , tip . :)
Moringa grows in The Rio Grande Valley where I’m from .
I now live in the New Orleans Area , The North Shore , I hope my seeds will germinate 🤞
Good luck, let me how how the germination/growth goes..
