Will Moringa Survive Even After A Food Stortage?

      Apparently in most articles I have read about the future of food The Moringa Tree as been the center of discussion. government and industry are learning more and more about how one Moringa Tree and change with or not people die if there is indeed a severe food shortage. What would we do in this country when the inevitable happens. Maybe our children's grandchildren won't ever see an orange but they will know Moringa. After reading this and wanted to share it. Taken from Business World online:

Dining in 2050: locusts, moringa, earthworms and seaweed
"Future Feast" explores what people may eat when vast farmlands have disappeared and some species would have died out thanks to climate change. "The challenge was to present the future right now. We can’t think of this in 2050 when it’s too late," said Ms. Young. The result was a dining table loaded with dishes featuring unusual ingredients like locusts and earthworms. "When our food supply runs out, what on earth are we going to eat?," said Ms. Young, noting that these animals are "easier to be farmed. Essentially, you can find a way to farm them yourselves." Ms. Lumen served spicy locusts encased in sweet gelatin, and the flavors and texture of the spicy, crunchy insect and the sweetish and bouncing gelatin complimented each other. The locust gains a crunchy texture from being fried twice, and the spiciness comes from adobo powder and chilies. The clear gelatin also served as a visual tool. "My son, chef Joey (Herrera) said, ‘If you’re going to make them eat locusts, make them see what they’re eating,’" said Ms. Lumen. Mr. Del Rosario served up green-tinged panna cottas made with soy and moringa (malungay) leaves. He chose the moringa for a reason. "It can grow in the worst conditions, and yet they’re very nutritious," he said.

The Body: Are you Aware of the Body's Need for Acid and Alkaline ?

You will find Moringa goes along way  in Finding balance in the areas of diet and lifestyle is critical to your body’s overall health  keeping your body in check as far as the need to stay alkaline.

Maintaining a balance of 75 percent alkaline foods and 25 percent acidic foods is ideal. An easy way to accomplish this is to make fruits and vegetables the main part of each meal. Most fruits and vegetables are alkaline in nature. Some fruits, such as citrus, have an acidic pH outside of the body, but when consumed, leave an alkaline residue in the body after being metabolized*.

Alka Seltzer is alkaline. Plop plop fizz fizz and 10 minutes later you felt a little better. We have all tried it. The reason Is because it just worked, why cause its alkaline. It balanced out things a little.
Why not feel better all the time only much better than any over the counter feel better something you have to buy when your feeling blah.

How Should I Take Moringa Powder ?

How to take Moringa.

How much Moringa should I take?
How should I take Moringa?
Are there side-effects?
 
START: Introduce Moringa to your diet. How much moringa to take?
1.Start with half a teaspoon per day for 3 - 5 days! preferably with breakfast (tips below) and ALWAYS with food. Moringa powder is strong and will manifest side effects if taken in too large doses.
2. After 3-5 days increase your intake: 1 teaspoons per day total is plenty for a healthy person. If you are recovering from illness or suffer from any chronic condition that affects you physically, two teaspoons per day may be better -BUT if your stomach is struggling because it needs to cope with medication it is better to slow things down.
If you are healthy and physically very active, three teaspoons per day is possible. Unless you are body building, more may be a waste.
3. After 2 Weeks: You may want to take Moringa every second day after a while -Listen to your body. You will notice if your dosage is too high. Just take less, or skip a day -or two. Your body is unique as are its needs. After two weeks of regular use you can begin to make changes in how much and when you take Moringa. Remember, you can't force the body's processes, so don't take Moringa as a quick-fix.
Take it regularly as part of your diet and you should get the miracle benefits -many of which are preventative. When to take Moringa Most who take only one teaspoon daily take Moringa in the morning with breakfast.
Those who struggle after lunch, usually take it with lunch. Those who take it to improve digestion or sleep, take it with dinner.
The 3 Day Rule: You are going to have to see what works best for you. A three day regimen taking Moringa at a specific time will tell you what results are for you by taking it at that time. Not everyone takes Moringa daily. Some take less daily, others take 1 or two teaspoons every second or third day. Remember Moringa is for the entire body, not just the tongue. 
  Health Risks: Like all dark green foods, such as Spinach, Moringa thickens the blood. If you are on blood-thinning medication or are pregnant, consult your health care practitioner before taking Moringa.
  Moringa with Food: Recipes Breakfast Take in a juice, or mix into your breakfast. It will go green! Honey works well to mask the taste. You can take half a teaspoon with cereal or oats to lessen the impact of the taste. Salad Sprinkle your Moringa over wet salad - you wont notice it. Cooked Meals Sprinkle Moringa powder over the food just before serving.
You can stir it in, but  DON'T COOK Moringa powder, it diminishes the nutritional value. Smoothies Go to town! but for best results, add lemon, honey or dates. A full teaspoon will often affect the taste, so go for half a teaspoon. Juice Add only half a teaspoon of Moringa to juice to prevent spoiling the taste. Taste One easily masks half a teaspoon of Moringa.
If you drink high-green smoothies, you can do one. If taste is an issue, you need to take less more frequently. Again. given the benefits of regular Moringa intake, should your tongue get such a big say? Moringa Tea South Africa You can add our Moringa powder to hot water to create a tea. Obviously you will need to strain it through a cloth.
Do not boil the Moringa, add it to a pot of pre-boiled water an let it brew for 3-5 minutes. Moringa tea has less nutrients than taking the powder.
By adhering to the Do's and Dont's below, you can't go wrong.
DO NOT Don't cook Moringa powder. Heat above 47 degrees Celsius de-potentizes raw food.   Minerals survive, but many phyto-nutrients -including vitamins take a huge knock.
DO NOT Take too much too soon! See the next point.
DO NOT Take Moringa on an empty stomach! Moringa makes a brilliant and natural laxative. In the beginning, 1 to 2 teaspoon on an empty stomach should do it.
DO Keep your powder dry. Moringa ferments in no time at all. Great compost, but too expensive. •Keep Your Powder Out of the Sun. The Chlorophyll in Moringa carries goodness.
•Take Moringa Regularly. Moringa is a food, not a medicine. It works best preventatively. Moringa Side Effects (or are they?) Moringa side effects are rare and indicate one may have taken it wrong. Firstly - we've seen it at least a hundred times: People get their Moringa and immediately take too much...
SLOW DOWN. Moringa is not a silver bullet, it is food, and it is potent. Give your body the time it needs to adapt and gain the benefits. You cannot rush your system, but you can make it very uncomfortable by bombarding it with something strong. Nausea: If Moringa makes you nauseous you are taking too much... lower your intake and build up slower, or spread your intake over three meals. Three days will do it. Runny Tummy or Laxative Moringa is very potent. The average person can take 2-3 teaspoons on an empty stomach with water to use it as a fast acting and natural laxative. Remember people differ so, will the impact of how much you take. Many use Moringa and an increased water intake to keep them regular - this does not require taking it on an empty stomach. If you get a runny tummy from Moringa, just reduce your dossage, or take it when your stomach has food in it. Heartburn: If you take moringa neat with water, or very little else to mix with, it can cause a heartburn-like sensation. If this happens to you, mix it with something thicker, or take it with food. Like all green foods Moringa thickens the blood. This is of note to those on blood-thinning medication.

Leafy Greens like Moringa for Improved Personal Health

I found this on It's Moringa blog site . It was dated last February. It still rings true today. "Eat your Greens" Leafy Greens like Moringa for Improved Personal Health Remember mom saying, "...you need to eat your vegetables, especially the dark green leafy ones. Green leafy vegetables are very nutrient-dense and incredibly healthy. They are a vital source of antioxidants that are very beneficial to providing weight loss help. People have often known how nutritious leafy greens are, but still choose to exclude them from their diet. However, if everyone truly understood the powerful capabilities of vegetables in a healthy diet, nobody would go without them. There are many types of leafy green vegetables, but the four most nutritious are Moringa, Kale, Spinach, Swiss chard and Romaine Lettuce. Moringa has multiple times more nutrition that Kale, Spinach, Swiss chard and Romain Lettuce. For instance, moringa has 25x the iron of Spinach. Kale also is high in folic acid and comes with a ton of potassium. Currently, the United States is among the top commercial producers of spinach in the world. Popeye references aside, spinach is incredibly nutritious. It's high in vitamin A and C and comes with a ton of iron. Swiss chard is similar to spinach. In the fourth century B.C., the Greek philosopher Aristotle wrote about the health benefits of chard. Swiss chard is high in vitamin C and vitamin K as well as rich in calcium. Nowadays, California is the lettuce capital of the United States. Lettuce is also very nutritious. The darker the lettuce, the better. Lettuce contains a ton of magnesium. Health Benefits of Leafy Greens Dark leafy green vegetables come with a ton of health benefits. Perhaps more so than any of the other superfood. What makes leafy greens so great, is the extraordinary amount of antioxidants and health promoting nutrients they manage to pack inside of so few calories. Eating dark green leafy vegetables on a regular basis can provide anti-aging benefits, help with weight loss, cancer and disease prevention and improve heart health. Anti-Aging Benefits of Leafy Green Vegetables There are a ton of nutrients in green leafy vegetables that help slow the aging process. Folate is one of them. When combined with other B-complex vitamins, folate has been shown to help regulate mental functions. Also, folate has been linked to preventing Alzeimher's disease. Another important nutrient in leafy green vegetables is vitamin E. Vitamin E has been linked to slowing down the aging process by several research groups. In one study, conducted by the National Institute of Aging, vitamin E was found to decrease the cause of mortality by 27%. Leafy Green Vegetables Provide Weight Loss Help Because leafy green vegetables are so low in calories and so high in nutrients, they are essential to any dieting plan to improve personal health. Dark green leafy vegetables are also very high in fiber. Fiber helps make you feel fuller more quickly. Therefore, adding vegetables to your diet is a great way to help you decrease calories without feeling deprived. Cancer and Disease Prevention Leafy greens' high level of antioxidants make them one of the best cancer-preventing foods around. It has been concluded that eating leafy greens 3 or more times a week has proven to significantly reduce the risk of stomach cancer. If you eat green leafy vegetables once per day, it can reduce your chances of getting lung cancer by half. Also, including leafy greens on a daily basis is shown to help prevent breast and colon cancer. Improved Heart Health Research conducted at Harvard Public School of Public Health concluded that eating green leafy vegetables every day will reduce your risk of coronary disease by up to 23%. This is because the antioxidants in leafy green vegetables help to prevent free radicals from lining artery walls and the rich fiber content helps remove unwanted plaque build-up on those walls. In another study, it was shown that one extra serving of vegetables a day lowered the risk of cardiovascular disease by as much as 11%. Dark green leafy vegetables are high in: •Vitamin's A, C, E & K •Potassium •Magnesium •Antioxidants •Iron •Calcium •Folate •Many B-vitamins The health benefits of adding leafy green vegetables are enormous. There is no reason not to incorporate the vegetables into your diet. In fact, you are punishing yourself by not doing so. If you want to improve your personal health and get some weight loss help, then you must start eating more leafy green vegetables

What is in your Energy Drink?

PepsiCo  changed the ingredients in Gatorade. The popular energy drink was found to have  toxic and harmful additives. Brominated Vegetable Oil (BVO), Mercury and Red #40. Also high amounts of High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) which health organizations say lead to diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. and is one of main contributors of obesity in our modern day society. Brominated Vegetable Oil (BVO) is added to lots of soft drinks and citrus juices to keep flavoring separated and create a uniform product. BVO is also used as flame retardant and has many potential side effects including neurological disorders. Mercury, a well known poison and neurotoxin. Mercury not only damages the brain, but it also effects the liver and kidneys. Red #40 is the most common dye used in the United States.According to The UK Food Guide, Red #40 has been banned in in most of Europe including Belgium, France, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Austria and Norway. This is due to some disturbing research in children that showed it can contribute to hyperactivity. The Gatorade was billed to be for athletes and for those who worked and played hard . It was suppose to replace much needed hydration into your body. Instead it turns out it's harmful and is being pulled. That's only for starters most juices and energy drinks today have much of the same ingredients. Moringa Oleifera has all of whats needed to not only restore nutrients we lose being active but also can restore good health. I start my day with some Moringa Tea and I'm good for the day. No downer effect after a few hours. If you compare Moringa Tea with, your most popular energy drink. Moringa will keep you energized much much longer with no side effects and a restful sleep at night. Oh and by the way, you can compare cost per unit. Compare save and drink to good health.
Just use Moringa for 30 days. Perhaps you  can feel energize longer with not side effects

I believe these seeds did help cure diabetes in this particular case.On the other hand its said that the seeds will help with blood sugar a great deal but the disease will always be there if you have it.
