Moringa is the English name. It is called Malunggay in Philippines and Sajina in Indian Subcontinent and South East Asia. It grows very wildly in hot tropical climate. Moringa is a wonderful herb known all over the world-- but only recently in the U.S. It may provide the boost in energy, nutrition and health youíve been seeking. This book reveals Moringaís nutritional content, medicinal properties, where to get it, the best results. Moringa is a remarkable discovery, which can make a tremendous difference in your health and quality of life. Mounting scientific evidence shows what has been known for thousands of years by people in the tropical parts of the world: Moringa is natureís medicine cabinet. It is best known as an excellent source of nutrition and a natural energy booster. Loaded with nutrients, vitamins and amino acids, it replenishes your body and provides what you need to get through a hectic weekday or active weekend. As the candles multiply on top of your birthday cake, you may find yourself slowing down and saying, ìI just donít feel eighteen any more.î Moringa gives back some of the energy you thought was lost. Yet this is not a sugar-based energy. Itís not something, which makes you hyper for some period of intense activity then leaves you drained. In fact, Moringa is also relaxing...it helps to reduce blood pressure and assure a good nightís sleep. How does it contribute more energy and greater relaxation at the same time? The answer seems to be Moringaís well-documented detoxifying effect. University laboratories around the world have studied Moringaís ability to purify water...attaching itself to harmful material and bacteria, and allowing them to be expelled as waste. The evidence points to this same process going on inside your body. It produces long-lasting energy without hyperactivity... a nerve system at rest... a blood system not under pressure...a gland and hormone system in balance. Other health benefits identified by people who use Moringa continue this same pattern: immune system strengthened, skin condition restored, blood pressure controlled, headaches and migraines handled, diabetes sugar level managed, inflammations and arthritis pains reduced, tumors restricted and ulcers healed. A body thatís not fighting damaging internal elements is better able to use the nutrients, which come into it to build healthy skin, bone and muscles, as well as the all-important hormones, which keep your body in balance. And Moringa is loaded with nutrients. Each ounce of Moringa contains seven times the Vitamin C found in oranges, four times the Vitamin A of carrots, three times the iron of spinach, four times as much calcium as milk and three times the potassium of bananas. One of the best attributes of Moringa is that it is also quite tasty and a welcome addition to your kitchen. The leaves, pods and flowers of this versatile tree are all edible, each with its own flavor. They can be served fresh with meals, or be reduced to powder and used as a food supplement. *Research on Malunggay* The seeds of Malunggay, Moringa oleifera, were extracted with distilled ethanol and concentrated under reduced pressure at 40oC. The resulting extract was partitioned between hexane, ethylacetate, butanol and water. The solvent fractions were likewise concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude ethanol extract of dried seeds inhibited the carrageenan-induced inflammation in the hind paw of mice by 85% at a dosage of 3 mg/g body weight while the mature green seeds by 77%. The hexane fraction of the crude ethanol extract of the dried seeds also inhibited inflammation by 77% at the same dosage while both butanol and water fractions inhibited inflammation by only 34%. These results indicate the strong anti-inflammatory activities of the ethanol extract and the hexane fraction. On the other hand, the ethylacetate fraction caused a 267% increase in inflammation and exhibited toxicity. The mice died after oral administration of the fraction. The crude ethanol extract also inhibited the formation of Epstein-Barr virus-early antigen (EBV-EA) induced by 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). At a dosage of 100?g/ml, the extract inhibited EBV-EA formation by 100% suggesting its anti-tumor-promoting activity. *The Malunggay (Sajina, Moringa) tree.* ======== Try malunggay <http://www.malunggay.com/description.htm>! And enjoy M-chicken noodle soup, M-squash vegetables, M-sandwich spread, M-upo-ginger chicken tinola. Why do I believe in malunggay? In 2004 I was diagnosed with osteopenia, a decrease in bone density. It’s a step nearer to osteoporosis, which is common to lactose-intolerant people like me. As a nutritionist-dietitian, I fully know that this can be remedied by eating crisp, dried malunggay leaves, as they contain lots of calcium. Also, a year back, in 2008, I underwent colonoscopy which showed two internal hemorrhoids and rectal polyps. The doctor prescribed medicines for a month, and they worked. With the doctor’s permission, I stopped taking the medicines, and continued eating raw crispy bits of malunggay leaves every meal. Just this year, I had another bone scan. The result was 2.7-percent bone density. Hurrah! This is a normal finding. According to Dr. James A. Howenstine, “Pharmaceutical drugs have their place, but natural solutions have theirs,” too. Maintenance medicines do wonders, but herbal and alternative medicines also work. If a large number of our people can’t afford to buy nutritious food to keep them healthy, they need only try malunggay, the new plant of life. Try it, too, but plant first! It needs only tiyaga or perseverance to help yourself and others. “Our Lord is great and almighty, His wisdom can never be measured...He prepares rain for the earth, making plants and grass grow to serve man’s need”. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "newsline" group.
