I am from the South of India in a state called Tamil Nadu. We use all edible parts of Moringa(Murungai)- the leaves, the Fruit pods which is simply called as Drumstick locally - in our cuisine and it had been a part of the culture for more than 2000 years, well documented in Sangam Literature. It is so good to see this plant getting recognised worldwide.

[@Arunkumar-bg5xk]

I was just about to type this...

[@ProgressiveDiscussions]

Yes, from what I understand you can use the young green pods of the moringa as a vegetable. There must be total validity to this plant since it is now so popular around the world in the tropics.

[@bigbillhenry]

Better start a moringa tree farm lol

[@blessed9491]

Can we dry the leaves in sunlight , pwd them n then have it ?

[@rajeevarora190]

One way to go to heaven is to enjoy a 'Sambar' lentil dish (Drumsticks are a key ingredient) - an essential part of South Indian meals but the rest of the country also makes it with local variations and enjoys it!

I am 63 and have taken tremendous amounts of vitamins and supplements my entire life. Some you take as part of a RDA and others for hopeful goals, but it’s difficult to appreciate what they are doing. I’ve been on moringa for 9 weeks and will swear that it is extremely effective in my body. I had suffered with pains in my hips and stiffness throughout my life and it is gone. No question this value priced supplement is very effective in lowering my inflation.

Thanx for doing all the heavy lifting to bring us so much reliable information. A question for Prof Fahey: Would you say 2 capsules of moringa leaf powder per day is sufficient? I generally take it in the evenings because, on an older show, you had mentioned the possibility that max effect of moringa for BPH is achieved if the moringin ‘overnights’ in the bladder.

Californians and Floridians! You can get your moringa fresh out of the backyard:-) the leaves are edible, cooked, raw or in tea, the flowers are edible and are nice addition to salads, and the long pods, that are commonly called Indian drumstick, can be de-ribbed and put in soups Etc. Seeds are edible too :-) I'm in Southern California, I got my seeds from a Filipino friend, they were easy to sprout and grew into a 12-foot tree in the first-year!

[@lui8885]

Broccoli sprout cannot be taken in powder form because Sulforaphane is very unstable, but Moringa can be taken in powder form. Why is that? Is it because Moringin (moriga isothiocyanates) is more stable than Sulforaphane? Some could please explain it to me?

[@myk_artist]

yes, this seems to contradict other discussion points that they had.

Interesting how the leaf powder is the "go to" for him. Does this mean that the powder form maintains some of the glucomoringin and myronsinase in order to produce viable isothiocyanates I would assume that the drying process would ruin them.

After watching Dr. R.Patricks other videos of Broccoli Sprouts and Sulphurophane benefits I decided to experiment with grinding my own mustard seeds and adding them to my salad vinaigrette. My question is: Will a couple of grams of ground mustard seeds be adequate to up Myrasinase availability significantly, what about just teaspoons of table mustard from the jar? Is myrasinase stable chemically when cooked or does it break down into ineffectual irrelevance?

[@lilyinthewater161]

Myrosinase is inactivated by heat as does most enzymes ( compounds that has -ase at the end are usually enzymes). Uisng mustard or mustard powder would be the best best.

[@gentleoldmoviefan5680]

I've read from one very reliable source that Moringa leaves are high in oxalates. I haven't confirmed it (yet) by looking up multiple sources, but I think it's wise to be cautious about it. Oxalates can worsen a lot of long term health problems, well beyond just kidney stones. It can happen insidiously, sometimes occurring silently (without symptoms) over many years. It's a complicated subject. Sally K. Norton's book "Toxic Superfoods", which was published in January 2023, covers the dangers of Oxalates thoroughly and comprehensively. I recommend watching some of Sally K's KZbin videos, and browsing her website, which is a good source information about all things oxalate (a.k.a. Oxalic Acid), one of the worst plant anti-nutrients. Although lectins and phytates can be pretty bad too, depending on the individual person.

I purchased 2 packs of morning a powder which I dived into with two heaped teaspoons in a smoothie! BIG mistake! I got a stomach pain which lasted around an hour, which is very unusual for me. My digestive system is almost ‘cast iron’. So I cut back to one level teaspoon, which was better , though not ideal in a smoothie. Was better sprinkled on food. So, I may change to capsules….

[@myk_artist]

so, there are a few possibilities here. First off, wherever your moringa grew could have had contaminated soil, or the product could have been contaminated so it could be a matter of brand, or you may have a sensitivity to moringa itself or two teaspoons may be above your tolerance level or it could be moringa and something else in your smoothie combining. For example some vitamins at certain levels can become laxative.

We eat a lot of Malungay(aka moringa) in Hawaii, practically every other house has this growing in their yard brought over from Filipinos in the 1800s. No here ever gets sick from eating it but it depends what part of the plant is being consumed. If a pharmaceutical company is just grinding up the whole plant, which is pretty much what happens, that’s not how the plant is meant to be consumed. You pretty much only consume the baby leaves and aren’t supposed to eat the stems or seeds. Seeds are consumed only in very specific situations for specific ailments. The sap that the tree produces is also useful but not for consumption which is in the thicker stems. So I suspect all these cases are due to bad quality control from production.
