Thanks for the warning. Actually we often only use the leaves and flowers for teas and vegetable, while i know others make soups or something else of the young pods.

Oh, if i could only send you so many cut branches after some neighbors harvested the leaves, thye grow so quickly. By the time ur seeds are grown, you can try some recipes from 2012 site i found interesting. Hope we could try it out too:

very interesting, found out they sell Moringa tea and my local health shop, but it is £7 for a box of 50 tea bags that's very expensive.

Ha! Ha!

doesn´t it give you the idea of getting some seeds to plant on your backyard to sell them?

you gave me that idea to me! ha! Ha! I need to know how to sort customs and those process to sell them outside (because here it doesn´t have a real demand. like it is in Asia or elsewhere.

did i!? well i don't remember that, but good. lol. i did think at first i wonder if i would have room in my garden to grown one but i don't think they would do well here. to wet and cold.

Oh! The videos I have seen kept them as high as a bush... Who knows! Once I get mine I will tell how they behave on wet soils.

Excerpt:
The proteins in Moringa TEA gives 18 of the 20 knownamino acids, including all eight amino acids classified as essential. These essential amino acids cannot be synthesized by the body and must come from a person’s diet, usually from red meat or dairy products. These foods are not available in many parts of the world and are lacking in the diets of vegetarians, elderly people, and children.

Moringa,with it’s 90+ verifiable nutrients, not onlycontains all these elements, but also has significant portions of Vitamins B, B1, B2, B3, D, and E, polyphenols (antioxidants), other minerals, fiber, and is one of the highest, naturally occurring sources ofchlorophyll.

Oh, and theyre so common around here. Sometimes we chop off a branch to use some leaves for tinola, a chicken dish, or other soups. A 6-inch branch about 1-in diameter could easily grow --they in fact do grow almost anywhere.
