Vegetables are plants that are consumed by humans and animals as food, vegetables are medicinal, healthy and highly nutritional, they contain a very high level of vitamins. Vegetables could come in form of seeds, leaves, stems, roots, flowers and even the bark of a tree.

I love vegetables a lot and my favourite of all is MORINGA. Moringa is a vegetable that serves as food and herb, it contains vitamins, proteins and mineral. I love moringa because it fights against ulcer, it regulates blood sugar level, it treats stomach compliants, it induces death of cancer cells, it also reduces wrinkles, it protects the liver and also improves wound healing, it is also suitable for vegetable soups. To show how much i love moringa, i planted it in my compound for easy access, the picture below contains moringa leaves from my farm.

Moringa oleifera is a plant that is often called the drumstick tree, the miracle tree, the ben oil tree, or the horseradish tree.

Moringa has been used for centuries due to its medicinal properties and health benefits. It also has antifungal, antiviral, antidepressant, and anti-inflammatory properties.
