Moringa Oleifera as a Gift of Nature to Human Beings

Abstract

Moringa (Moringa oleifera) the most important plant which gained much importance in the recent days due to its multiple used and benefits that includes as food, medicinal uses, water purification, biopesticide and production of biodiesel to agriculture and industry. To overcome Nutritional problems like, anaemia and vitamin A deficiency. Moringa oleifera flower contains adequate amount of calcium, iron, vitamin C and fiber for the women, children and old age people. Moringa oleifera is an interesting plant for its contribution in bioactive compounds. In particular, leaves, the most used part of the plant are rich in vitamins, carotenoids, polyphenol, phenolic acids, flavonoids, alkaloids, glucosinolates, isothiocyanates, tannins and saponins. The high contribution in bioactive compounds may explain the pharmacological properties ascribed to Moringa oleifera confirmed numerous pharmacological properties such as prevention or treatment of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, cancer and infective diseases and ensuring safety on human health consequently to a chronic or long-term disease related problems. The focus of this review is exploring the potential of moringa for multipurpose as medicinal, as biopesticide, as nutritional sources and industrial inputs. All the part of the plant such as leaves, fruits, pods, steam barks and roots which contains an excellent source of vitamins, beta-carotene, calcium, iron, riboflavin and phenolic acid used to cure different diseases which make the plant as a gift of nature. Therefore, there is an affirmative action that the plant has vast traditional industrial applications that contributes a lot in human livelihood
