Gathering Moringa, A.k.a. the Miracle Tree

Let me tell you a little story of how I met Moringa and all its awesomeness. Certain day a friend of mine invited me to a Moringa Workshop, something that just sounded cool but I haven`t got idea of what the heck was Moringa. There were where I met Eric Leacock member and cofounder of Mission Moringa.He teach me the basics of Moringa and share with me his awesome Journey letting know the whole world the goods of such a great plant. But let Erick tell all this by his own words.:"

Moringa is found all over the topics, from South Asia to West Africa, and in South and Central America. Moringa contains powerful antioxidant vitamins such as vitamin C, E and A. Moringa has hundreds of substances such as vitamins, enzymes, amino acids, fats, minerals, and specific phytochemicals, each with clear importance and numerous applications in healing and nutrition. It contains around 20 types of amino-acids, 46 antioxidants, 36 anti-inflammatory compounds and 90+ nutrients which makes it one of the best nutritional supplements. Amazingly, this plant is used not only for nutrition (highly digestible, complete protein, large amounts of vitamins), but also for water purification, biomass, animal forage, bio pesticides, cleaning agents, gum and dye production, fertilizer, foliar nutrient, while the seed oil (non-drying, resisting rancidity) is used in cosmetics, lubricants and as a biodiesel. Moringa is considered to have the highest protein ratio of any plant so far studied on Earth. It is also the world record holder for most antioxidants for any plant. Moringa has been used in Ayurvedic medicine to prevent and treat over 300 different diseases.
