Moringa oleifera is called ‘Nebedaye’, which means ‘never die’, in many African languages. It is considered to be the most nutrient rich plant on earth. The Moringa plant is native to Northern India, where it was first described around 2000BC as a medicinal herb. From India it also spread to the Philippines, Central and South America, Africa and West Indies. Moringa trees are often referred to as the tree of life because of their medicinal uses over the span of many centuries.
Containing more than 90 nutrients and 46 antioxidants, these vivid green leaves are nature’s super-power food. The leaves are rich in vitamins A, B, C, D, K; calcium, niacin, thiamin, iron, magnesium, potassium, protein and fibre.
Moringa was highly valued in the ancient world. The Romans, Greeks and Egyptians extracted edible oil from the seeds and used it for perfume and skin lotion. In 19th century, plantations of Moringa in the West Indies exported the oil to Europe for perfumes and lubricants for machinery. People in the Indian sub-continent have long used Moringa pods for food. The edible leaves are eaten throughout West Africa and parts of Asia.
