If you want an apple do you settle for fruit salad? If you want the incredible benefits of the potent moringa leaf do you settle for a “formula” that contains just a bit of leaf? If you want an apple you buy an apple. If you want moringa leaf you buy moringa leaf: Moringa Zinga.

Zinga is an excellent source of nutrition because it goes to where the body is nutritionally deficient. It is a natural energy booster without the ups and downs associated with products that are sugar or caffeine based. So the energy is sustained. Many people also report that their immune system is strengthened because of the high nutritional content. It helps skin conditions and many teens take it to eliminate acne. Blood pressure can be normalized, headaches and migraines controlled, and diabetes sugar levels managed. Many people report that long time inflammations and arthritis pains are reduced, and ulcers reduced or healed.

Moringa is also soothing. Its detoxifying effect is probably due to its ability to purify water. It does this by acting as a coagulant. It attaches itself to harmful material and bacteria. It is believed that this process takes place in the body as well. Long-lasting energy without hyperactivity is what results. The nerve system can rest, the blood system is relieved, and both the gland and hormone system come into balance.
Moringa oleifera, commonly referred to simply as “Moringa” (from Tamil: Muringa and Malayalam: Murunggi[1]), is the most widely cultivated species of the genus Moringa, which is the only genus in the family Moringaceae. It is an exceptionally nutritious vegetable tree with a variety of potential uses. The tree itself is rather slender, with drooping branches that grow to approximately 10 m in height. In cultivation, it is often cut back annually to 1 meter or less and allowed to regrow so that pods and leaves remain within arm’s reach.
The immature green pods called “drumsticks” are probably the most valued and widely used part of the tree. They are commonly consumed in India and are generally prepared in a similar fashion to green beans and have a slight asparagus taste. The seeds are sometimes removed from more mature pods and eaten like peas or roasted like nuts. The flowers are edible when cooked, and are said to taste like mushrooms. The roots are shredded and used as a condiment in the same way as horseradish; however, it contains the alkaloid spirochin, a potentially fatal nerve-paralyzing agent, so such practices should be strongly discouraged.[citation needed]

The leaves are highly nutritious, being a significant source of beta-carotene, Vitamin C, protein, iron, and potassium.[3] The leaves are cooked and used like spinach. In addition to being used fresh as a substitute for spinach, its leaves are commonly dried and crushed into a powder, and used in soups and sauces. Murungakai, as it is locally known in Tamil Nadu and Kerala, is used in Siddha medicine. Its leaves are full of medicinal properties. The tree is a good source for calcium and phosphorus. In Siddha medicines, these drumstick seeds are used as a sexual virility drug for treating erectile dysfunction in men and also in women for prolonging sexual activity.

The Moringa seeds yield 38–40% edible oil (called ben oil from the high concentration of behenic acid contained in the oil). The refined oil is clear, odorless, and resists rancidity at least as well as any other botanical oil. The seed cake remaining after oil extraction may be used as a fertilizer or as a flocculent to purify water.

The bark, sap, roots, leaves, seeds, oil, and flowers are used in traditional medicine in several countries. In Jamaica, the sap is used for a blue dye.

The flowers are also cooked and relished as a delicacy in West Bengal and Bangladesh, especially during early spring. There it is called sojne ful and is usually cooked with green peas and potato.
