Using Moringa For Hormone Regulation

Using Moringa For Hormone Regulation

Moringa Nutrients for Hormones

Moringa, also known as the "miracle tree," has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments. One of its many benefits is its ability to help regulate hormones. Hormonal imbalances can cause a variety of health problems, from acne and weight gain to mood swings and infertility. Fortunately, Moringa may be able to help.

Moringa is rich in nutrients, including vitamins A, B, C, and E, as well as minerals like calcium, iron, and potassium. It is also a good source of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. These nutrients and compounds work together to help regulate hormones and promote overall health. Here are some of the ways that Moringa can help regulate your hormones:

Balances estrogen levels

    Moringa contains compounds called phytoestrogens, which are plant-based compounds that mimic the effects of estrogen in the body. This can be beneficial for women who are experiencing menopause or other hormonal imbalances. Phytoestrogens can help to balance estrogen levels and reduce symptoms like hot flashes and mood swings.

    Supports thyroid function

     

      Moringa is rich in iodine, a mineral that is essential for thyroid function. The thyroid gland produces hormones that regulate metabolism and other bodily functions. When the thyroid is not functioning properly, it can cause a variety of symptoms, including weight gain, fatigue, and depression. By providing the body with the iodine it needs, Moringa can support thyroid function and help to regulate hormones.

      Reduces inflammation

        Inflammation can disrupt the balance of hormones in the body, leading to a variety of health problems. Moringa contains anti-inflammatory compounds that can help to reduce inflammation and promote hormonal balance. By reducing inflammation, Moringa can also help to reduce symptoms of conditions like acne, PMS, and infertility.

        Boosts fertility

          Moringa has been used in traditional medicine to boost fertility in both men and women. It contains compounds that can improve sperm quality and motility in men, and it can also help to regulate menstrual cycles and increase fertility in women. By promoting hormonal balance and reducing inflammation, Moringa can help to improve overall reproductive health.

          Overall Health

           

          In conclusion, moringa is a powerful superfood that can help to regulate hormones and promote overall health. Whether you are experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalances or simply want to support your body's natural hormonal function, incorporating Moringa into your diet may be beneficial. As always, it is important to speak with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your diet or lifestyle.

          Peace, Love, and Prosperous Growing.

                Grow Moringa Method of Sprouting Seedlingling

                Grow Moringa Method of Sprouting Seedlingling

                Summer is Getting Closer

                Greetings and welcome to Grow Moringa Farms in Plant City, Florida. I'm Kendrick Henry, your local USA Moringa Farmer. I'm so happy, summertime is right around the corner. It's just about to be Moringa season and we like to get the Moringa season started by shipping Moringa trees all over the country. We ship 10 Moringa trees inside of a box. You can get a box of Moringa trees shipped to your front door with 10 of these inside. I'm going to show you how we ship them so that way you know that when they arrive to you they'll be safe and healthy. We'd also like to show you how to sprout them so if you get our Starter Kit, you'll be able to Sprout the Grow Moringa way.

                Starter Kit Contents

                If you order a Starter Kit it actually comes with 10 Moringa trees, but it's not just the trees alone. These trees are going to come with seeds and pellets so that way you could actually start your own Moringa trees as well. It's an amazing feeling to learn how to grow Moringa trees, and I want to teach you how to grow them using the Grow Moringa Method. What I'm going to do is start from the very very beginning of how we get started and what you can do at home when you receive your Starter Kit.

                Peat Pellets

                First of all inside your starter kit you're gonna get these peat moss pellets and they come flat, dehydrated and this is made from peat moss and the skin of the outside here is a biodegradable skin made from corn.

                Hydrating the Peat Pellet Using BioStimulant

                All you do is hydrate it. I've already pre-hydrated one for you to see but what I do is add my famous Moringa BioStimulant we make from Moringa leaves. You can use this on any plants. You get a 4oz bottle of the BioStimulant in the box with your starter kit. The trick is to water from below. We'll take a tray just like this and we'll dunk it in a tub of water and BioStimulant. When you first hydrate the pellets they really don't have any perlite inside, which is why the starter kit comes with a bag of perlite.

                Adding Perlite

                Perlite is a ph neutral volcanic mineral. It's actually a glass. It's made from obsidian and it doesn't really have any nutrients but it helps with drainage, especially in these peat moss pellets. When you get your Starter Kit once you're hydrating these pellets you'll want to take a little bit of the peat moss out and then  dig out a hole in the center. We've got ourselves a little hole there and we're going to put some perlite in the middle. That perlite is really going to help with drainage. I just kind of mix it in there by kneading the pellet around in my hands. Now she's ready for the seed.

                Burring the Seed

                 

                You see how nice that is? So we've got these really really nice PKM1 Moringa Oleifera seeds which come inside the starter kit. You get about 10 to 15 seeds in there and 10 pellets inside the starter kit. So you take your seed and you lay it flat so with the wing side up you stick it right in and then you can just kind of swish the peat moss in and around it and i just kind of bury it down in there. Someone asked today how deep do they bury the pellets once they are ready to be planted and you really don't have to bury the pellets very deep, or the tubers very deep. The tuber forms inside the pellet.

                Bottom Watering

                 

                The peat pellets tend to dry out pretty quickly so that's why we like to water from below. Because we're having to water consistently and the leaves and stem don't like a lot of water, we water from below. We use the wicking system. We dunk this tray of pellets in a tub so the water/BioStimulant mixture wicks up the pellet and the water doesn't disturb the leaves or stem. This really helps us sprout within 10 days or so. Maybe 5 or 10 days you can see that you'll get a nice sprout. Within about a week or two weeks you'll have a growing seedling with roots trying to pop out of the bottom. 

                Peace, Love, and Prosperous Growing.

                The Importance of Seed Selection

                The Importance of Seed Selection

                Does Seed Selection Matter?

                Why should you care where you get your Moringa seeds? Aren't they all the same? Today we're going to explore the different types of Moringa, what seeds we use and why, where we get our seeds from, and the dangers of cross pollination. It's important to know your farmer and the care they take to make sure you get a high quality product, especially for seeds, as that is the future of your garden.  

                Different Types of Moringa Seeds

                There are 13 known types of Moringa, but only a few are used for cultivation. Of those few types Moringa Oleifera is one most known and used. In the Moringa Oleifera family there are over 100 different types of seed varieties. The most common of those is the PKM1, but other seeds that you might hear about are the PKM2 and MOMAX3.

                Seeds We Use

                In short we use the PKM1 seeds. PKM1 seeds were developed at Periya Kulam Horticultural College and Research Institute in Tamil Nadu, India.  

                Why We Use This Variety

                PKM1 seeds are the most widely used seed and for a good reason. It has high yields of leaves when compared to other varieties and it highly disease and pest resistant. This variety, in a tropical zone can fruit twice a year! It's also what most of the studies that have been done on Moringa used in their testing and research. Additionally it has a better taste than other varieties which is great when you are growing the plants for food or food supplement. 

                Where We Get Our Seeds

                We have developed a relationship with a USDA Certified Organic Moringa farm in Nicaragua. This is our main supplier of seeds. We have done our due diligence and met with this farmer and seen their farming practices. We trust this supply of seeds and use it on our farms to grow our Moringa trees so we know they are high quality.

                Dangers of Cross Pollination 

                If you get seeds from different sources without knowing which variety they could cross pollinate. If the trees cross pollinate they typically revert to the lower yielding tree variety. For example if you have a PKM1 Moringa Farm and you decided to try growing some MOMAX3 trees so you could produce a large amount of oil from the seeds, you would be sorely disappointed. The cross pollination would cause the trees to be more PMK1 producing trees. The MOMAX3 seeds are extremely expensive and you would have wasted all that money, and not gotten what you were looking for. 

                Be Diligent

                Make sure you pick the variety of seeds that work best for what your goal is. We recommend the PKM1 for a well rounded, high germinating seed that has a high immunity. Source those seeds through us, so you know you are getting high quality. Beware not to plant 2 different types of seeds within a 5 mile radius to reduce risk of cross pollination. 

                Peace, Love, and Prosperous Growing.

                Magnetic Moringa BioStimulant

                Magnetic Moringa BioStimulant

                Is Moringa Magnetic?

                spoke to a gentleman who was a e asked me, "Why do you  I said, "Well because it attracts a lot of minerals in the soil, because it hat's actually not magnetism." I told him, "Yeah well it sure does sound like it, because they're pulling up a lot of minerals and and nutrients." He then explained to me, it's actually the breakdown of these microorganisms that are eating it that 

                Moringa Microbes

                 That's the same thing with the BioStimulant. It's feeding the microbes which is then feeding the mycelium which is then feeding the root.
                So yeah, I understand that they might not actually be putting nitrogen back in the soil; but the bugs and the microorganisms that are eating that particular plant are the ones that are putting the most nitrogen back into the soil with their carcasses.
                they're fertilizing the local area.  

                Dr. Elaine Ingham

                There's a lady, Dr. Elaine Ingham who is THE American microbiologist, most famous microbiologist; and she talks a lot about that process. She has tons of information on the internet, YouTube, and her own course. She's been all over

                Dead Soil Needs Life

                I love that. Honestly that's where we have to start. We have to start with the soil. Even as a nursery man, I might go buy soil, I might have mulch, and I might have composted soil, but it's been pasteurized. Essentially, it's dead. It doesn't have worms in it, it doesn't have microbes in it. We have to take that pile that we just bought for 500 bucks and we have to mix it with stuff. We've got to throw mycelium into it, we've got to throw a biochar into it, we've got to throw Azomite
                 mushrooms that I didn't eat just anything to increase the microbiology in there.

                Moringa BioStimulant Gives Life to Soil

                The amazing thing about Moringa is it brings all that microbiology into the soil. The BioStimulant is a great way to get that started. That's why we don't call our BioStimulant a Fertilizer. It isn't fertilizing the plants. It's giving life to the soil so the plants thrive. You get stronger and better producing plants when you start giving life to your soil.
                Peace, Love, and Prosperous Growing!
