    My 42yr old son had major surgery after crushing a kidney stone & his Uretra was cut near his prostate ; he began to use the moringa a month after his surgery as his health went down hill over the past months trying to get the surgery for 10 months he couldnt work as collapse on his job ; after he used it for 1 month he began to watch the tv with his glasses & his general health improved so far he is in very good health now

    There is also a fruit tree i want to mention alongside the Moringa tree and that is the Graviola plant or fruit with its leaves. Oncologists will hate me for propagate it because its cancer preventing as well as cancer healing. Also called sour soup. Amazing how these plants are all been found in the tropical Indonesian islands.

    Hi, There is an old saying in Tamil language that "Murungaya vechavan verum kaiyya povan" ( The one plants moringa tree will go empty handed) and it actually means that, The one who plants the moringa tree in their house and then consumes the leaves cooked, Drumstick cooked, will never needs a walking stick. He / she can walk freely with no support in his/ her later ages. And it is. The power of moringa Tree.

    @0:44 - it's funny you say "they can live off just eating the leaves" because if anyone remember the Eddy Murphy movie, 'The Golden Child', the character in the movie, the Golden Child is sustaining himself on a sprig from a tree and is noted to be snacking on single leaves throughout his abduction. It would make sense that he is eating moringa leaves.

    Yes, I believe the Bible talks about this. I just received seeds from Bakers Creek, and the directions tell you to soak the seeds in warm water for 2 days, changing the water each daily.
    I was told Moringa was good for arthritis pain and your lungs. I had Covid-19, and I thought that wasn't going to survive. Now my lings hurt all the time.
    Also, we will have a food shortage, so this tree just might be a ticket for survival. People in my area are stealing fruit from my tree, but they don't know this is much better for you. Love the baby in your video.

    Reason number 7, moringa actually likes to be trimmed or harvested and will grow faster and thicker if you do so. 🤗 Without fail, every time a branch gets two to three foot long, cut half of it off. Watch how fast your tree fills out! Bonus, it creates a lot of nutritious mulch! 🤗
    Reason number 8, use a bucket full of leaves and small green branches to make fermented plant juice fertilizer. It's actually more nutritious for your plants then the fpj made from comfrey! 🤗

He was in it for the money. But this gentleman obviously cares about the tree and cares about his viewers health. So yeah, I gave this a thumbs up so I can spread the word and I subscribed and hit the bell. My dad is not long for this world. Alopathic ( mainstream medicine ) gave up on dad long ago, but we turned to ayurvedic, homeopathic and naturapathic and pretty much anything to help him out and he's still here but he's like butter spread onto to much bread to quote Bilbo in LOTR's.
    But I don't know there's so many good things being said about this tree that if it boosts his immune system, it may gave us some extra time to help him out. And if not well at least it should sort his constipation problem out right? lol. God bless you all and thank you.

    It's even better if you ferment the moringa powder. I've been making my own kombucha, fermented sweet tea, for a few years and just happened to add a bit of powder into a second ferment cycle. When I had about 20 ounces of that, I felt hot. I took my temperature and it was a low grade fever of about 99.6. I did that a few times, and the effect was consistent. My new normal is about 98 d f. I have diagnosed lyme disease, and nothing else has cause such an immune increase. I now make what I call "kicked up kombucha" and add more moringa, but also chaga, cordyceps, maca, matcha, red reishi, sida acuta, mimosa pudica powders, and some frozen turmeric paste that I make with black pepper, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and some coconut oil, and instead of water, I use a strong tea from yerba mate, cistus incantus, culinary thyme and a bay leaf. All herbals just seem to have their health properties magnified by the short ferment cycle.

    Oh and that bit about consuming too much pills in one sitting giving you diarrhea reminded me of when I drank vine spinach seed water for 2 days lol. I wondered why I felt like going to the toilet every time I took a drink.. Apparently overdosage is a thing even in healthy foods 😅
    But it does make me curious about the dimensions of the planting ground since the plant grows that big that fast... how much space does it need to take up below and sideways? I've heard that it has shallow roots but I might as well ask, how much cm you have for yours and if it doesn't interfere/tangle with any of the other tree's roots?
