I am in love with Moringa Tree!
This is a guest post by Elsa who shares about the miraculous healing of her son. Please see her bio below and check out her blog too.
I found Moringa by accident and I am so grateful that I did. Here is my story.
I personally was looking for something to boost my son’s immune system as he catches everything!
And when I say everything, believe me, he catches it.
Every single week I was at the doctor asking for help. Each time I went to see the doctor, I got a list as long as my arm with medicines.
One day, I thought, right this is enough. I need to find a solution to my son’s problems as filling him with medicines will definitely not improve it.
So I spoke to my doctor about my feelings. I knew him for 20 years, so I could tell him my thoughts.
He took it on the chin and said ‘okay, you want to get away from medicine. That is perfectly fine. My advice is that you find a natural plant or supplement that can help your son. That’s all I can say.’
I felt a little powerless at the time. How can I find such a plant or supplement by myself?
I spoke to a couple of friends and none were into this plant thing. I went to the pharmacist and the same thing. In fact, the pharmacist insisted that I carry on with medicines. But I was having none of it.
So here comes the power of the World Wide Web.
I typed a couple of keywords and kept searching all night (not really – just a couple of hours and got really tired – old age).
The following day I did the same. And I did search for several weeks.
I always found the same things.
So I started to change my keywords from plants to supplements. I used a lot of words like healthy supplements, and immune system, plus many other keywords that related to my son’s health issues.
And as weird as it can be, I always came across one supplement.
As I was researching many, many different supplements, as I don’t personally believe they can do what most say they can, I ran across this Moringa powder supplement.
I thought, Yeah right – a miracle tree? Yes, this is how people call Moringa tree: ‘The miracle tree’.
And I am sure most, or all of you reading this post will think the same thing as you’ve been reading about all sorts of miracle healthy solutions.
Well, while my research was happening my son got Meningococcal disease – he had both Meningitis and Meningococcemia (in the blood). And I can tell you this is not fun. Seeing your son in pain and not being able to do a thing to help out is very pressuring on your soul. Even the doctors are powerless in front of these diseases.
If you do not know this, Meningococcemia has a 40% death rate, and the ones that live through it end up with amputations of the extremities.
This is a whole other story in itself, but to make a long story short, my son lived and did not have to have anything amputated.
After the hospital stay, my son was to have a 6 week recovery time and possible lifelong effects from the disease including headaches, back and/or leg pain.
This only made me more determined to find something to boost his immune system and something to keep him disease-free.
So during his recovery, I started up my research once again and there it was, the famous Moringa powder!
We needed a miracle. So I focused my research on Moringa.
I, like you I’m sure, did not believe all that was claimed.
Until I found the research from John Hopkins, Perdu, and then I read an article from The National Institutes of Health. The organization has started to pay attention to an important plant, Moringa Oleifera.
After reading all of their research I knew I found what I was looking for. But, I wasn’t going to give it to my son without trying it myself first.
So I ordered some (after researching all the different companies) and started taking it. After a week of taking 2 pills twice a day, I woke up one morning without my usual headache.
At first, I didn’t even realize what was different. This went on for days and I knew the only difference in my life was the Moringa. I also noticed within a week’s time that I was no longer yearning for bedtime at 2 pm.
I was getting so much done and felt “better”. Not that I was sick before, just felt a better sense of well-being and more energy.
It wasn’t the jittery, nervous energy you get from diet pills or energy drinks, and there was no crash late in the day.
I have to say that I did not change my eating habits, which do not include vegetables, nor did I start exercising more. It was all due to the Moringa.
It was time to give it to my son. He has since recovered from his disease and is now just starting to feel the effects of the Moringa.
He sleeps better, has more energy, and hasn’t had headaches in weeks. I will continue to give Moringa to him to keep him disease free and so he can live a healthy, happy, long life.
I hope that you will take a positive lesson from the above if you are faced with a powerless situation. There is a solution somewhere, you need to investigate, research, ask questions, and try things that are different to the mainstream system that people so happily go along with.
I have made my choice at the time and will live by it forever. I am now advising all my friends about this tree. It contains so many vitamins, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties that all of us need some of it.
I want to end my story by thanking all of the people who have investigated this tree. As I said in my title, I love Moringa Tree.

I would love to hear your comments about any natural remedies you know about too. Just leave us a comment below.
I do think we rely way to much on big pharma to cure what ails us, but I have a hard time believing ALL of the claims about this stuff.
I would love to read the research she found, then maybe I could be convinced to 😀
@Michele – Thank you so much for your comment. I agree with you that one has to read before making their own judgment and that is why I studied late in my 20s and early 30s. Here is a quick link for you that summarizes all that I said in a one single scientific paper publication. Note that you can explore a lot more with each reference and learn so much about the tree. Thanks again for stopping by and providing your feedback. It is always better when there is an exchange of ideas. Here is the link http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2213453016300362
I think there is danger when people are looking for these ‘miracle’ cures. I’m totally into natural health – in fact I live, love and breathe it! However when you mention something such as “I did not change my eating habits, which do not include vegetables” I am somewhat dumbfounded. Pretty much every school of thought, in both mainstream and alternative health will agree that a wide variety of vegetables are important for a healthy diet and immune system. I wonder what results you would experience from working on a foundation of healthy nutrition first? Supplements certainly have their place, but they shouldn’t be replacements for a healthy diet.
I agree that we need the nutritional base from a variety of natural foods. Thanks so much for sharing Elly.
I agree with you, Elly. I have had two periods in my life (with the third one starting lately). The first period is the one that I qualify as healthy and a period that I qualify as less so. I should have been more precise when I wrote the above.
At the time of writing it, I was not a great eater of vegetables. I somehow quit my lifestyle to be more of a ready meal type food. And I did not change that at the time.
However, now I am eating quite a lot of nice veggies now. Mainly because my mum and dad have a great garden. In fact, we just had a nice soup with homemade bread and a little bit of butter (not much, I promise). I am increasing my intake of veggies as time goes by and I can see the change in my figures too.
Next time I shall be more precise in terms of writing. Thanks a lot anyway for sharing your thoughts with us and thanks for Joleisa to allow an open exchange.
I so far used Mooring for beauty purposes (you know, in shampoo or cream). I have an autoimmune disease, have to inject myself regularly. I wonder if it would be also something for me.
