Moringa Oleifera
The Moringa oleifera tree is a species of tree in the family Moringaceae. This species is mainly found in tropical and subtropical regions with a steppe climate.
Moringa oleifera is also known as the 'miracle tree' due to the high nutritional value and medicinal properties of the tree's leaves and fruits. In South Africa, for example, the leaves are used to combat malnutrition.
The species is generally considered to be the most useful tree in the world, as almost every part of the tree can be used as food or for other useful purposes.
The not yet mature, green fruits of the tree are the most commonly used. In South and Southeast Asia, they are used in many dishes. The seeds from the mature fruits can be eaten as nuts or peas. In addition, 38 to 40% vegetable oil can be extracted from the seeds, called behen oil.
The flowers of the tree, if cooked, are also edible. The root can be ground up and used as a condiment.
The leaves of the tree are rich in beta-carotene, vitamin C, protein, iron and potassium, among other things. The leaves can be cooked like spinach, or dried and ground added to meals.
Because of the tree's strong nutritional value, Moringa oleifera is increasingly being used to combat malnutrition in developing countries. Trees for Life, Church World Service, Educational Concerns for Hunger Organization, and Volunteer Partnerships for West Africa, among others, use the tree for this purpose.
The Thailand Foundation is helping the Stichting Cambodia-Dutch (www.cambodia-dutch.org) to introduce the Moringa products in Europe that are organically produced in Cambodia by local farmers.
