Remarkable Moringa

The Karawa hospital is using dried moringa leaf powder to help patients, mostly children, suffering from malnutrition. The moringa oleifera leaves are very rich in protein, minerals and vitamins. The dried leaves have protein content 16 times that of milk, iron content 3 times that of spinach, potassium content 15 times that of bananas, calcium content 8 times that of milk and vitamin A content 10 times that of carrots. WOW.

Marta planting Moringa

Marta Klein is becoming known as the moringa lady. She was given the Ngbaka name “Demomo” which means “good, pretty” saying “she has brought something good into our lives.” Marta has been working with two other people in the nutrition department of the hospital teaching them how to harvest the moringa leaves, dry them in the sun and pound them into dried powder.

At the hospital they teach the mothers of the malnourished children in the pediatrics ward how to add 1 teaspoon of this leaf powder to the children’s food twice a day. Since most mothers do not have teaspoons, they use their fingers to add 8 pinchfuls to equal 1 teaspoon. Creative. The results are very encouraging.

Cindy planted 100 moringa seeds behind the Noren’s house while we were living at Karawa in March. 65 seeds germinated. Later she went with Marta and the nutrition team to plant 15 of these young trees at the Bokpasi Health Center, about 1 mile from the hospital. The other 50 trees were planted in a garden near the hospital.

Growing Moringa - seedlings ready to be transplanted

Cindy has accompanied the nutrition team for several visits to the Bokpasi Health Center where they taught the nurses and health agents about good nutrition and how to use moringa in cases of severe malnutrition. It was encouraging to hear last week that the head nurse Justin was already teaching what he had just learned to other people in the village. This involves growing a variety of plants and trees in their gardens, eating a balanced diet and making sure that pregnant mothers and young children eat enough protein and nutritious calories every day. Moringa is great as a short-term boost to those suffering from malnutrition, but the long term answer is knowing about good nutrition and eating a balanced diet.

Most people believe that answers and solutions to their ailments cost a lot of money. This is especially true if the disease they are suffering from is considered worst ones. This thinking often brings people to immediately seek the help of all affluent relatives notwithstanding the fact that illnesses can be cured by nature. They often forget the nature’s healing wonders. Solutions to the problems are basically abundant and inexpensive.

For instance, Malunggay, scientifically known as Moringa Oleifera, is nature’s gift to mankind, is available from Moringa's Hope in dried leaf powder form.

Does the sound of the term “Moringa” arrive as magic to your ear? Try to speak it aloud and you will notice! Well, not only the sound of the term is amazing, the existence of the plant is really a wondrous creation from the Omnipotent. The features of the plant such as leaves, flowers, trunks, roots and its seeds have plenty of uses. It can build weak bones, enrich an anemic blood, and produce lots of milk for lactating mothers, a delicious vegetable, and good source of almost all of helpful vitamins and minerals for a healthy body. It provides mineral and vitamins ten times more than oranges, spinach, bananas, milk, et cetera.

In West Africa, physicians are using it to diagnose diabetic, hypertensive, and wounded patients. It also serves as anti inflammatory medicine as well.

Furthermore, Moringa is a quadruple source of beta carotene as compared to carrots. It is effective in battling against cancer. We must inform Popeye, too, that Moringa has triple iron than that of spinach and more substantive features than olive oil. And enough with the expensive milk products produced intentionally for infants, the Moringa can be a cheap replacement or substitute for whole milk powder for malnourish treatments.

The dried leaf powder of Moringa, per gram, contains 27.1g protein, 38.2g carbohydrate, 19.2g fiber, 2.3g fat, 2,003mg Ca, 368 mg MG, 204mg Phosphorus, 1,324 mg Potassium, 28.2 mg iron, 870mg Sodium, 16.3 mg Vitamin A-B carotene, 1.33g Arginine, 2.6mg Vitamin B1- Thiamin, 0.61% Histidine/g/16gN, 20.5 mg Vitamin B2- Riboflavin, 1.32% Lysine, 8.2 mg Vitamin B3- Nicotinic acid, 0.43% Tryptophan (g/16gN), Vitamin C, 17.3 mg Ascorbic acid, 1.39 % Phenylanaline (g/16gN), 113 mg Vitamin E Tocopherol acetate, 0.35% Methionine (g/16gN), 1.19% Threionine (g/16gN), 1.95% Leucine (g/16gN), 0.83% Isoleucine, 1.06% Valine, 205 calorie, and 1.6mg oxalic.
