Moringa Tree Leaves: Treatment in Aids, High
Blood Pressure, Anemia, and Malnutrition

The Moringa Tree with its edible leaves,
flowers, and pods are one of most power
packed, nutritious trees in the world. I wrote
an article on that subject here, but it is also
one of the most healing trees in the world. All
of the tree is either used for food, medicine,
or cooking. It has been used in Ayurvedic
medicine for hundreds of years to both
prevent and treat almost 300 diseases.
The information in this article is not based on
double blind research but on the historical
and current usage of Moringa leaves, flowers,
and pods in India, and many other countries.
This is how the people have used it in the past
and how they use it now. Much of this
information was observed and documented in
the different health projects by physicians in
their treatment of AIDS, malnutrition, and
disease. In India, Ayurvedic physicians use it
in their standard treatment protocols.
How can Moringa leaves have an impact on
so many problems? Many health problems
are due to poor nutrition, malnutrition and
imbalanced disease states, which result in
immune system breakdown and disease. When
you correct those imbalances and nutritional
deficiencies with super packed nutritious
food, it is bound to improve health and
disease states. The ability for Moringa
leaves, flowers, bark, and pods to have such
diverse healing effects is due to the
vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and healing
elements the tree contains.
A review of Moringa's power packed
nutrition:
Here is a nutritional breakdown of Fresh
Moringa Leaves: 7 times the Vitamin C of
Oranges; 4 times the Calcium of Milk; 3 times
the Potassium of Bananas; 2 times the Protein
of Yogurt; 4 times the Vitamin A of Carrots;
and ¾ the iron of Spinach.
Moringa leaves when dried become a even
greater, powerhouse of nutrition containing:
½ the Vitamin C of Oranges; 17 times the
Calcium of Milk; 15 times the Potassium of
Bananas; 9 times the Protein of Yogurt; 25
times the Vitamin A of Carrots; and 20 times
the Iron in Spinach. All elements except the
Vitamin C is increased when you dry the
leaves in the shade. Drying the leaves in
direct sunlight decreases its nutritional
values.
How Moringa and Artemisia Annua Leaves
benefit AIDS Patients:
There are health projects going on in
Tanzania, Musoma, and other areas. There is
a real AIDS crisis in these areas. In these
AIDS cases, the doctors have found that the
combination of two herbs, Moringa and
Artemisia Annua, improved the energy,
stamina, and CD4 counts of the AIDS
patients. Some of their patients came in so
weak, they were not able to walk or care for
themselves. They improved so dramatically
that many were able to go back to work and
many stayed to help the incoming patients.
These dramatic improvements were
documented over and over again by the
doctors in these health projects.
How the herbs were used in the treatment
protocols:
The physicians combined dried Moringa
Leaves with Artemisia Annua and then added
one heaping teaspoonful of the powder to
make a tea. A liter of tea using 5 grams of
the powder was given 3 times a day to the
patient while the symptoms were acute. Later
when the patients improved, it was reduced
to a cup a day. When you consider the super
nutrition in Moringa leaves, it is easy to
understand how the Aids patients would
improve. The power packed nutrition would
bolster their immune function, strength,
stamina and ability to live a more normal
active life.
Moringa does NOT cure AIDS but helps the
AIDS patient live longer and improves their
quality of life and health. Often the AIDS
patient does not die from AIDS, but from
one of the opportunist infections that prey
on their compromised immune system.
Moringa Leaves and its effects on blood
pressure, blood sugar, breast milk
production, and anemia:
In India, the leaves are used to normalize
blood pressure and to treat anxiety. In 1994,
a team of researchers identified a new
nitride and mustard oil glycoside that
demonstrated its ability to lower blood
pressure.
An infusion of the leaf is used to reduce
sugar levels though not as effectively as the
standard hypoglycemia medicine.
Moringa leaves mixed with honey then
followed with coconut milk drunk 2 to 3
times a day is used for diarrhea, dysentery
and colitis.
Moringa leaves have been observed and
documented by doctors in the health
projects to increase breast milk production
and the health of nursing mothers. This is due
to the nutrition in the leaves especially the
protein, calcium, and iron content.
Given to failure to thrive infants, it
encourages weight gain and improved health
due to the super packed nutritional content
of the leaves.
Moringa leaves are given to improve anemia in
infants, children and adults because of its
high iron content. Iron tablets cause stomach
distress, constipation, and are difficult to
digest. Iron tablets are not easy to obtain in
these poor communities. Given their
compromised digestive systems due to
malnutrition, the iron tablets would most
likely not even be utilized by the body.
Researchers have not identified all the
various elements in the plant that affect
these health problems. It may be that in the
overall improvement of the patient's
nutritional status that these imbalances are
corrected. Improved nutrition supports the
patient's own body mechanisms to heal and
correct these conditions.
