Well, l bought the powder, it is very good. Since I've been using it, my suger level is lower, my blood pressure is lower and controlled, so praise God for his creation.
I'm from the Bahamas and I have my very own moringa tree.i needed to watch a video like this.thanks John you're good
I combined moringa and fresh guava leaves and chewed together and I tasted it much better than moringa leaves alone …the bitterness lessened and more chewable than ever before… I am so enjoying eating it .
It's called the "tree of life" and my mother replaced her diabetes meds with Moringa powder which keeps her blood sugar in check!
How much does she use and how does she take it?
@@bettebette9881 She uses 2 teaspoons of the vida pure moringa powder mixed with a glass of lemon water after breakfast and dinner.
@@engineerjay420 tnx so much for sharing that! I've just started about 2 weeks ago and ive been doing 1 Tbs in a.m. with a fresh blended orange and water or orange juice which seems to taste best to me so far. Grapefruit not so much 😲. I'll have to try lemon and maybe lime but i actually like the orange with it

Thank God ♥️
I put moringa in my beet juice i shake it well and drink it. I have arthritis really bad in both knees Moringa is a miracle for me. I can walk now!!
Please did you boil the beetroot or you blend it raw? Thanks
I love Moringa and in my country we call it "Malunggay". I put on munggo bean dish or chicken tinola soup and even sprinkle it on my omelet & now watching this drinking boiled moringa leaves with calamansi (or lemon if u hv) 🤗. This is one of the best superfoods God gave humanity. Thank you so much Father! ❤🙏
God is soooooo amazing and provides for His precious children 😇🙏✝️💜 MARANATH LORD JESUS ✝️💜
That's pretty gay.
In my country Guyana we called it saigan tree. the Indians use the fruit particular the seed to make curry stew.

I gave a friend a Moringa sapling and she lives in North Texas. I told her to keep it in a pot and move it inside in the autumn and to prune it. She planted it outside. It grew and made it through two winters. The third winter killed it. She didn't mulch it or wrap it.
The moringa tree is a tropical plant. Here in Indonesia, we have many. We usually make the moringa leaves into delicious clear soup, with the ingredients being only water, some sugar and salt, sweet corn, shallot, garlic and fingerroot (a kind of medicine plant like ginger, called boesenbergia rotunda in Latin). Here, moringa leaves are eaten by children to cure lack of vitamins and minerals. The moringa branches with leaves are also used to expel black magic, genies and demons here. We do not treat the moringa tree as something valuable.
Here in Philippines 🇵🇭 its very common plant we called it malunggay.. We use it in chicken soup or fish soup
In Tamil Nadu, a state in India, this is called Murungai (Moringa is derived from Murungai in Tamil language). It is a house tree and almost all the houses will have this tree in the backyard. It withstand heat and can do well with less water. It is very nutritious. We sauté it with onions and green chilli peppers, salt in some raw sesame oil. It is eaten as a side for rice. It tastes amazing sautéed. We also add the leaves to curries, soups and dosa(rice crepes). But juicing and powders seems to great as well. The drumstick pod, flowers are also edible. Drumstick(moringa fruit pod) is delicious staple in a south Indian lentil curry called Sambar. It is very cheap and nutritious!
GMSunshine sir this my no:9942990443 puducherry. call me sir...
Thank you
Yes, i ate itu when i ini India..sambar was the best cullinary i every had, i didnt know what drumstick was, i was Googling still couldnt find what's that, now i know. In my country Morinaga is called kelor, and drumstick we not eat it that why i don't know.thanks for yr info..
@@bloomsari6833 Its a vegetable grows in a moringa tree.. and thats actually called Murungaikai.. you will find plenty of Murungaikai recipes in YT.. try and lemme know if you need any help..
.
To fun! I'm in Texas. One of my dear master gardener friends gave me branches tonight to eat. Loved it!
It grows like a weed here in the Philippines. I just made some soup with some today.
Im from the Philippines and we call it Malungay. We put a bunch of these leaves on our soup. Sometimes soup with chicken , sometimes soup with sardines.. Delicious and sooo good for your health!
Moringa is common here at🇵🇭 Phil. We cook moringa for soup with coconut milk, in so many recipes. We also eat the flower and fruit
We eat moringa all the time in the Philippines, we mix it for all kinds of soup!
Thank South Indians for it
@@Politickticktickin yu think indians discovered it? Hell no.. my forefathers here in the south east asia tropics been using it since millenia
Who cares? Healing drought to make.
Alice Simple Life TV can you ‘ail me send please
@@Politickticktickin thank you India the land of body odor.
Thanks so much for this video. Im trying to grow 2 Moringa trees in Ojai, CA. I'm told they don't do well here but I'm persisting. I lived with Moringa in Oman and learned how amazing it is. I believe that I can keep these guys going here in the valley. Last winter was a bit rough on them. In pots so far. I LOVE my Moringa trees.
Try a tall narrow wheeled trash can, with a single layer of empty water bottles on bottom, and a cardboard cylinder in the middle for sandy soil, then more water bottles on the outside of the cylinder for bulk and to reduce the overall weight of the container. That allows for a deep tap root without making the container too heavy to move inside when frost is forecast. The cardboard will decompose, but allows you to fill the outer volume with lighter weight material. Leave the lids on the empty bottles.
Hello John, for some people your vid is too long, for others it is too short. You are doing a wonderful job. Thank you! I guess it depends on peoples knowledge how they rate you. Don't bother. It is very hard to satisfy everybody. Thank you very much for your information.
Little Idiot you are from an idiot! Comment needs way more likes!
Thank you for this wonderful knowledge 👏
Many Blessings to you 🙏
he covered every important detail just fine. this tree almost grows better if you set it up right and ignore it . when you see flowers, pick them for use in twa and to bush plant more. if flowers stay , they will go to seed. all is good just decide what you want.
@@KevinFreist thank you!
John you tal to much. Please tell us was ur video is about
Wow! Thanks for the info. I live in zone 7b. I grew moringa and happy to find the roots can survive indoors in the winter.
I learned a lot of new things. Thanks.
First of all, THANK YOU for putting timestamps on a video that's this long, I literally was scared to watch at first lol. You also spoke really well and educationally, this was great sir please keep it up! 💚
I have a moringa tree planted in my yard in Louisiana. It does fade back in the winter ,but it always comes back in the spring . This is an excellent video, John . Thank you!
Do you boil it? Cool it? Chop it up? I’m in Louisiana and looking for a way to do it without killing me lol
I am in Virginia. Do you think it can grow here?
@@luckypot7488 I would try it.
@@kylechenier9461 th-cam.com/video/S3ORqBLvd5g/w-d-xo.html
@@kylechenier9461 Moringa is a food with so many benefits. You can eat it raw as in a salad ,add to soups ,etc. , make into a tea ,and add to smoothies. look at the video i just added here .
You are an AMAZING teacher! Thank you for sharing this wonderful knowledge!
i am from Kerala a southern state of India, never knew these moringa trees that we had in the backyard was a super food. moved to to the USA when i was 9yrs old and now 37 - i have two 10ft tall moringa trees growing in my houston home. about to make that juice :)
Dry leaves 🍃 and you can have the drink easily
One of the most nutritious juice ever!, thank you!
Thank you god for such a wonderful life giving plant!
Been watching you since 2007! Thanks for all the info over the years John. Stay Safe and Garden On!
Excellent video and thank you for elaborating so much I appreciate more talkin from somone so knowledgeable. So please don't hinder your elaboration on subjects because people say you talk too much they can always hit fast forward if it's too much information but I would think most people clicking on this want to hear all that you know so thank you again. God bless!
I love you, John for sharing your tremendous knowledge of edible plants! God bless you in all you do to help mankind!!! Joseph Dappa
Hey FYI John the moringa leaves can be prepared with onion garlic and salt saute with little vegetable oil and add some grated coconut. Tasty and delicious
Make sure that clean the leaves with salt water don't squeeze the leaves
thank you
Thank you
what an amazing video, full of information. Just bought some Moringa so am researching best way to use it. juicing is the way to go. Your video was so informative on everything I now want to grow it myself. I lasted the whole video which being a right brain I don't normally, so was most impressed with the knowledge you shared and how you tried to cover everything. I appreciated it, especially as it's free information, those that leave rude comments are the negative side of life, who don't appreciate the time you took to do this, as your time is valuable, instead of them just being well mannered and asking what they need to know. Keep it up, I have subscribed to your channel to learn about other greens. I love green salads, juices etc. Wish life was more simple with non insecticide plants though. I am not in stable place long enough to grow my own You are amazing with your knowledge, well done. the amount of time put in to learn all this is priceless.
I really like your loving and honest approach. Thanks John!
I live in Western NY and I'm considering growing it in a pot and keeping it indoors under led lights half of the year. I never use chemicals, but worm casting tea I use as much as I'm able to produce.
it grows quick and tall. But in pot it won't be growing well as it's a tree.
In the tropics, it grows all over even on empty spaces near sidewalks.
Another great informative video. Thanks John!
Amazing plant for your health!
it's all over the philippines :-) we have around 20 of them in our yard. it's good with chicken soup or just native mix vegetable soup :-)
Where can I buy the good seed ? Saw Amazon’s has it but got a lot of bad reviews ,
There are a lot of trees look like that in Nyc parks but wasn’t sure if they are moringa
in Phippines we simply add moringa leaves on chicken soup or mung bean soup... Easy food and easy to grow. the only vegie that never die out..just keep on cutting some old branch and it keeps growing...
Do you cook with moong beans?
in philippines names of moringa is "malunggay".
The Pinoys pick it from wild trees and cook it in sinagang and the like as veggie. I was eating it for 20 years but never knew it was so good for you till I returned to my own country--where it's now expensive. But the Filipinos didn't seem to eat it every day only once or twice a week you can't use it with a lot of recipes (like adobo).
Lala's Simple Life How can I grow this plant
@@donniandrew5863 You want a stem? i can send to you tho.. but im from Philippines haha.. you can just grow it at your backyard tho
I like you give a detailed description most of the time.

he just said a lot and i'm at awe. great video. i'm filipino in the philippines fyi. thanks a lot.
Thank you John! I was randomly harvesting Moringa. Now I'll do it right!
We (my wife and I) have about 20 Moringa (Malanggay) trees and eat it regularly. I don't appreciate the chlorophyll flavor so much so I really appreciate your video and alternate to souping it.
Cooked it with my chicken noodles. I also mix it with my tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce and lasagna. Dried it and make tea ☕️
Tysm for this video !! I eat the leaves and pods right off the tree !! The pods don’t taste as bad when they are barely growing 😋 I hope I’m still getting the nutrients I need!!
I never had Moringa before. I will buy the seeds and try to grow it myself. Thanks for sharing all the tips on how to grow it. I want to live a more healthy lifestyle.
Thank you for this video its exactly the info I've been seeking
How can I get it?
This is a really informative, easy to watch video. Very well presented and thoroughly explaining all the processes..First time I’ve come across this man. Also only just learnt about the Moringa tree. Will definitely be trying this and grow one at some point. Also never seen this channel before but I’ve now subscribed. Thank you John
Moringa tea with garlic ginger lemon and honey is my daily diet until now Im not experiencing any internal organ defect. Watching from cebu Philippines.
Thanks for the great information and presentation. God bless kind people
Really great video! Thank you for all the detailed info., it’s super helpful. I just got my first Moringa Tree, I can’t wait to try it!
Great info. Just learning about this. We will try in our gh here in NE TN. Also in a large container in the garden. Seems extremely adaptable.
Thanks for the video mate. We live in tropical north Australia and I will now try growing this tree for it's juice.
EXCELLENT VIDEO , THANK YOU VERY MUCH . GOD BLESS YOU !
Thank you John for the video. Just what I needed to watch. I am growing moringa trees and I am grateful I have learnt on how to prepare and have it in my diet. God bless you.
I am in zone 8 & grew my moringa for three years b4 it grew its seeds. When I would harvest the leaves & dry them they were much greener than the store bought moringa powder.
Can you please tell me how do you dry the leaves? Thanks
I also feed the morninga leaves to my chickens and they healthy a lays tasty eggs. They love it.
Wow...Thank you for the advice! We will try to juice!🤗
If I only have one tree to grow this is it!! Gods tree!!
John thanks for everything man
What this guy said
ang dami sinabi grabee haba ng oras
Tkns for the information and I appreciate it.
Thanks so much. I am just beginning to hear about and use moringa. Very informative. I plan to grow it in a pot.
Hey Luci, did you manage to grow it in a pot? How's that holding up?
Aloha John, I discovered your channel yesterday while researching moringa and subscribed after the first video, you are a wonderful host thank you for sharing some great information and your passion for gardening. looking forward to more videos, all the best.
Okay
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you
You remind me of Jay Kordich from the 1980's!!! Thank you for your enthusiasm for fresh vegetable juicing. 😀 Please tell us more about different herbs and edible plants!!! I like your videos!!!
Thank you so much for sharing again
Facts: having Moringa tree in your backward, you will be safe because snakes don't like that tree. They avoiding that tree. Btw we also add the Moringa fruit and leaves in our menu. You can find this tree mostly in Asian countries like Philippines.
I am so blessed to temporarily live in the Philippines, and thus having access to fresh Moringa leaves. Great video man!
JK L yes you are, can you mail me some I will pay
Am also in the Philippines. Iv got fresh moringa around me in plenty
Viking Rogaland functions please
It grows so fast its amazing
Great video!! i just loved how you explained everything so well. Good Luck!!
I have 4 moringa trees and they are all dying. No idea why. Never very cold where I live. Costa del sol Spain. Any ideas folks?
Hi John I live in Hawaiian ACRES on 3 acres at about 1100 ft, will this do okay here, you know how WET it is here?
Wanted to thank you as well for influencing us to move to Hawaii and Homestead (its been a rough couple years having started with a very small nestegg) a lot of hard labor has got me to a good place to begin over and live a much healthier lifestyle. The starting over from scratch was a little too much for my ex-gf, unfortunately I'm on my own for now, but there is lots of hope here, I do have a few big dogs, finally have a small house built, a few greenhouses, lots of good soil on property for beds, and a leaner stronger body and mind, and most importantly, Hope and a Positive attitude which was missing from my previous life....so THANK YOU, you've helped and inspired me more than you will ever know.
HI...gud evening. Moringa plant can withstand that type of weather. Here in the Philippines my tree had been living for the past 40 years.
Thank you. I really enjoyed the information. At first, I thought you were a bit long getting to the point, however, it was worth hanging in there with you through the video. I appreciate your commitment to helping people.
loved this, thank you
Thank you John- truly enlightening!
Have you heard of Moringa leaf sambol?
well, it's eaten in Sri lanka-: use a freshly washed bunch of Moringa leaves, blended with either desiccated or freshly grated coconut, a squirt of fish sauce[ to emulate the dry fish they use], lime juice, salt and shallots or raw onion, some raw garlic and some fresh green chilies. -blend into a semi- fine paste, and eat as an accompaniment with your main meals... you can also do the same for Gotu kola leaves, parsley, coriander leaves... or try blending some or all together, you may add a little sugar for taste- to balance it .-jolly delish!
You're doing a good job, so keep it up.
Thank you Fred, I know your comment was 3 years ago but I would like to yo know I really appreciate this, I love the way Sri Lankans prepare food and I am going to try what you suggest as I have both moringa and gotu kola growing 🙏🏽
Wow, loved learning from all of your knowledge about plants! That was so interesting and informative! New sub. ☺️Always blows me away at what God has provided for us within the plants and our earth. I’ve got 4 moringa seedlings right now that aren’t doing great (leaves are a little curly) but I will continue to try because I really want to get these growing all over my yard.
Hi John! I'm Fe Bare from the Philippines. Just sharing that the moringa tree is malunggay here..and we use the leaves in cooking for our meals like adding coconut milk or adding it in meat or making soups out of it. I think you are a filipino too.thanks:-)
I LOVE THIS INFORMATION ABOUT MORINGA JUICE!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent Moringga info.. thanks so much, John! .. I've been eating Moringga since I was a kid intermittently but regularly almost everyday in the last 2 years, thanks to the pandemic, I had to seek alternative activities to keep myself 'sane' hehe .. there's unlimited Free Moringga where I live now but eventually I will plant all (I have started w/ 3 trees) of the Moringga that I need. Since I was a kid, Moringga has been considered medicinal where I live. When we get bruises, we chop up some Moringga leaves and slap it on the bruise even if it's an open wound for a few hours. I love Moringga-- it's a super food/medicine alternative for some ailments! .. appreciate your Moringga podcasts! Thank you so much 🙏
Wow. Just salivating from seeing this already 😋. Thanks for the life saving elabolate tutorial. Everything is broken down to the most basic terms. Love your work
Great product and your very clear explanation, thanks.
They have a fairly small root ball for the size tree they make. If you have a BIG pot (18 gallons or so), you could cut the tree short enough to fit in your doorway and take it inside for the winter. It can survive close to freezing very easily, so if your garage stays a cool 50 F all winter the tree will do just fine. It's better to keep some trunk on it than to cut it down to the ground if you can keep the tree above freezing. Otherwise cut it down very low a month or so before the first frost , wait for it to send out new growth and then start mulching it as deep as the new growth will tolerate.
During the cold months it's especially important that the roots don't get wet and stay wet. Moist is okay. Sodden rots the roots. They tolerate excess water better when the tree is not dormant. It can drink a lot of water when it's not dormant.
Great info , Thanks 😊
Thank you John. You are doing a good job my friend. God bless You abundantly.
Thank you John for the detailed content!
John - Thank you, so much, for teaching me about Moringa! I got some seeds and shared them with friends and now there is a young tree growing at the University of Minnesota Bee Lab! You are making a major impact and are much loved. Keep up the GREAT work, you are such an inspiration, John! Thanks again.
can i know. what kinds of do you used seeds moringa? because there's some seeds and while there growing this is bitter taste and the stem is red color.
Would like to share additional information, when you dry the leaves it increases the nutrirional value up to ten times then the fresh leaves.
Thanks for that information.
Wow! Now am happy because I have moringa powder right now
Cheers mate thank you! 🥰🥰
Thank you!
Love your videos! Your one of my favorite talkers..love the details and the communication..not alot of these videos really say much and leave me with a lot of questions..so really wanna say thank you for bringing all this wonderful information to us..god bless..💟💟
Loved it, but would like to know more about the juicer machine you are using. Thank you so much 😊
Been growing my moringa since 2014....in nyc....overwintered.
SO FANTASTIC!
Thank you for the very informative & nutritious moringa. I am Filipino so we call it MALUNGGAY & we mix this with lemon grass( tanglad) for soup.
.
(
In South India, the leaves are used as topping on 'pancake' called adai. Also, more commonly the drumstick is used in natvie "soup" called Sambar.
Thanks for the video brother!
Watched the whole thing and it was worth it.
Have a ton of Moringa..Planning to do a video soon, but I make smoothies with a few pieces of the new growth in it everyday for my wife and I. We use the ninja blender which takes great care to break down all the stems and leaves. Love the plant so much. A lot of respect for Moringa! We do also have the Vitamix juicer, but we usually opt for the additional fiber that comes with the smoothies.
wz just diagnosed with high blood pressure. Thanks a lot John! I will Juice more
Some people with high blood pressure take blood thinners but this vegetable thickens the blood. I think it's best to ask your doctor.
What about a tea, John? Is there a best way to make tea from Moringa powder? Love your videos!
I'm also curious about making it into a tea. Have you found any info on this?
Good video, I enjoyed the information given out, it really work amazingly
