From Philippine Herbal Medicine:

Malunggay (Moringa oleifera Lam.)

The malunggay plant is known to different parts of the world under various names including, but not limited to, horseradish tree, drumstick tree, and dool in some regions. It is one of the more popular and publicized plant that is acknowledged to have nutritional, as well as, medicinal value. It is rich in vitamins A, B & C, minerals such as iron and amino acids.

Fortunately, the plant is easily accessible as it can be found not only as part of the wild life, but also in the backyards of many Filipino homes. Malunggay proves to be a low-maintenance plant to grow, and is able to propagate in almost all kinds of soil.

Most of the parts of the malunggay had been proven to be useful, both for consumption and for its preparation as a medicinal plant. Its flowers, leaves and young pods are associated and perceived to be important because of the health benefits that it provides.

The malunggay plant, which belongs to the Moringaceae family, can grow as high as nine meters. The bark of this tree has a gummy quality in it, and when peered closely, is comprised of white wood that is soft in nature. It derives one of its names, horseradish, from the taste of its roots. The malunggay leaves, which are used in certain Filipino viands, have a very distinct shape that makes it easily recognizable. They are circular, thin sheets that are attached to a main stalk. The malunggay flowers are white fragrances that produce the pods, which are also used for medicinal purposes.
 
Health Benefits of Malunggay


As have been mentioned earlier, there are various parts of the malunggay plant which are being used for health reasons. For one, the leaves of this plant proved to be a good source of calcium, iron, ascorbic acid and phosphorus. Its other parts such as the seeds, the young pods, and the flowers have been established to benefit individuals as far as anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, circulatory stimulations, and such other activities that are most beneficial to mankind, are concerned. There have been claims that malunggay can be used to lower blood pressure, aid in pains caused by rheumatism, headaches and migraines, as well as its being an anti-tumor plant. Malunggay is also used for purgative and anti-fungal purposes, as well. All these prove the claim that this plant is indeed multi-purpose.

There are various ways to derive the benefits from malunggay plant. Aside from the natural and direct means, wherein one is going to prepare the concoctions at home by picking the necessary parts from the plant itself, one can also purchase the commercial extractions of malunggay. There are malunggay capsules that are now available in the market, which contain 250mg dried young leaves of the malunggay plant. In the same way, there are commercial oil extracts of the malunggay flowers which are also in the market. Because of the popularity that has been associated with this plant, commercial establishments have exploited the malunggay’s marketable qualities.

For simple preparations however, as when the concoction would be used for uncomplicated ailments like hiccups, as a means to end constipation, or as wound cleanser, one may eat the cooked leaves of the malunggay plant during his last meals of the day. This should be accompanied by water, especially when the ailment to be addressed is constipation. Now, as wound cleanser, the leaves may be crushed and applied to the affected area directly. In all instances, cleanliness should be observed to avoid complications.

Kaisa na namin kayo Brod Jaypee sa pagiging malunggay believers  

Yung mga nakagala kong nokis, kahit umuulan, kapag nalaglag yung yellow leaves ng malunggay, agawan yan sa pagkain pagbagsak sa lupa. Yung mga green naman ay sya kong dinidikdik panghalo sa feeds or sa tubig na inumin nila. Kapag sadyang mahina ang manok, ito'y sakitin kahit anong gawin natin. Pero yung matitibay, kahit anong panahon, di sila nagkakasakit lalo kung may malunggay, apple cider vinegar, at probiotic.

Isa pang dahon ang gusto nilang kainin ng raw ay yung neem leaves. Pang kontra insekto daw ito.

[jaypee]

Sa iyo ko ito natutunan. owe it to you hehehe.

[Island Born]

Wala pa yan sa kalingkingan ng mga natutunan ko sayo Brod Jaypee  Salamat.

Subukan mo ang powdered malunggay leaves, 10x ang benefits nito kesa sa fresh malunggay leaves. Araw-araw hinahaluan ko feeds ng mga manok, healthy naman sila, lalo at walang damo sa paligid.

[falconbirds]

Magandang info ang nabasa ko dito regarding sa malungay... magpapadagdag ako ng tanim nito pag uwi ko at subukan ko din ihalo sa pagkain ng manok... salamat sa info nyo mga broder

[Island Born]

up ko lang ito para sa mga ka Tropa na di pa nakakagawa ng Malunggay Powder. Matataas at puno ang katawan ng mga cockerels ko ngayon. Kasama ng malunggay powder sa feeds ang Fish Amino Acid, super combo ang dalawang ito.

[jaypee]

Taniman ko ng Malunggay ang farm ko para maraming supply, hati kami ng mga alagang manok hehehe. May 4000 sqm siguro na available kung ipatapas ko ang mga mahogany.

Kalapad ng lupa ay ayaw magtanim ang tao ko at pamilya ng anumang gulay o puno na makakadagdag sa kanilang pagkain. last year ko pa sinabihan pero wala pa rin. Ang mangosteen, lychee at saging na binili kong itanim ay di nabuhay.

Kaya ako na mismo ang nagatanim ng malunggay. May isang puno duon na halos ubos na ang dahon ang kinunan ko ng 6 na branches at tinanim, tatapasin lang ang ilang branches at itutusok lang sa lupa eh di pa nila magawa? aywan ko lang kung matutubigan. wait till next vacation hehehe.

[Island Born]

Di pa kasi nila alam masyado ang benefits na dulot ng malunggay sa tao man o hayop. Matibay sa tag-init ang malunggay tree kapag established na ang mga ugat nito. Pati sa Saudi na ubod init ay nabubuhay ang malunggay kahit di tubigan, pero syempre, tinutubigan namin ito paminsan-minsan.

[nelvin]

sir Jaypee,

grabe naman po pala yang farm handler mo, parang ikaw pa po ang hinihintay nila para gumawa ng mga utos mo, hehehe

ako po ay marami na rin tanim sa bahay, mga branches lng ang itinusok ko sa gilid ng bakod at sa ngayun ay pwede ng mag fry ng leaves, hehehe

grabe naman yan.... mga masisipag pala bro jaypee ang mga tao dyan... kung ako nasa lupa mo sa hilig kong magtanim... baka isang luntiang hardin n yan...  hehe.... weakness ko ang mangosteen.... hehe san ka nakabili ng punla?

[nelvin]

oo nga sir valteng, siguro type lng tlga nila na mag kuha nlng ng bunga, ayaw nilang sila mismo ang mag tatanim, hehehhee

[jaypee]

May sakit na KATAM, kami nga dito sa likod ng bahay ay may tanim kaming kamatis, okra, ampalaya at string beans.

Ang sanitation ang malaking problema ko sa farm dahil may babuyan sa katabi kaya siguro ako namamatayan. Emphasize ko nitong paguwi ko at inomentuhan ko pa ang suweldo sa 5K para magkaroon ng initiative.

Isang reason na gusto ko sanang lumipat ng lugar, change of environment at tao. Naawa lang ako dahil andiyan ang buong pamilya at mawawalan ng hanapbuhay at gutom sila. Pero kung sa pagbalik ko ay walang asenso ay sibak siya,


Bro Val, sa amin sa Negros ay maraming mabibilhan lalo na kung may pagdidiwang gaya ng Panaad, Sinulog, charter atbp. at makikita mo sa tabi-tabi. Mura lang, P50-150 sa isnag potted plant na 1 ft. high. Sa Bacolod area ay may nabibilhan din, magtanong lang.

[nelvin]

sinabi mo pa sir Jaypee,

yan po ang malaking problema at malaking sakit na ang hirap malunasan,

sayang lng ng mga materyales, pera at panahon kong hindi naasikaso
