Researcher Seeks to Increase Moringa Awareness

As a scientist and a pharmacologist interested in nutrition and disease prevention. I believe that now, more than ever, more scientist should be directly involved in the education of the general public on issues related to environment, health and disease prevention.

On this note I am very enthusiastic about my work at various levels with a plant of extraordinary potential - Moringa Oleifera. Moringa is a plant possessing an impressive nutrient profile and numerous therapeutic qualities. For instance. the plant contains hundreds of phytochemicals (plant-specifc substance), nutritional compounds ranging from vitamins and minerals to omega fats and all essential amino acids. We also know it can clean and disinfect water (functioning even better than aluminum sulfate, a standard water flocculant), has antibacterial and antiviral properties, contains powerful antioxidants and anitcancer substance and other important compounds such as cytoinins (zeatin). It also can function as a natural growth stimulant for other plants. Moringa has uses outside of the human health and medical realms - it is a terrific high nutrient feed for animals, it is useful in agro-forestry, and its oil has the potential to be used as a biodiesel fuel. In many ways, Moringa truly appears to be a "Miracle" plant.

Moringa: Food and Medicine

We know that Moringa represents a superior option for battling the effects of malnutrition in improvished ares. in fact, numerous organizations are actively working to further the agriculture and distribution of Moringa within the regions suffering from extreme poverty and hunger. In addition to its rich nutritional qualities, the plant appears to have a tremendous potential in the areas of medicinal use. Traditional cultures in various parts of the world have long used Moringa in their herbal medicine repertoire for ailments ranging from gout to various inflamations and fevers.

Now, mordern research is supporting the traditional medicinal uses of theis remarkable plant. Several dozen studies, most of them animal studies, give us a good idea of its potential. However, there is still an urgent need to further research - especially of human studies - to ascertain the theraputic qualities of Moringa.

So far, scientific findings suggest exciting healing potential for Moringa. It may:
*Relieve mineral and vitamin deficiencies.
*Support a healthy cardivascular system .....
*Promote normal blood-glucose levels.
*Neutralize free radicals and thereby reduce oxidative damages.
Provide excellent support of the body's anit-flammatory mechanisms....

In addition to the above, the research also suggest Moringa is extremely safe, as no reports of toxicity have been issued.
