Malunggay (moringa) – How to make tea

Here’s another malunggay recipe I got from gonatural.com. Link posted below.

The parts of the plant that can be eaten as vegetable are the flowers, leaves and pods. It is a significant source of calcium, iron, phosphorus and vitamins A, B and C. It has also been reported to be beneficial in diabetes because it can lower blood glucose. This “wonder vegetable” can be mixed with a variety of food like tinola, fish with coconut milk, corn soup.

For daily medicinal use, just prepare malunggay tea which is about 1 cup leaves boiled in 1 and 1/2 glass of water. Drink this daily. You can improve the taste by adding lemon grass (tanglad) or pandan leaves.

A single preparation can be stored up to 2 days in a thermos bottle, however, a fresh preparation is always recommended.

  11. for the malunggay tea recipe above, may i please know how long you will boil the leaves? And since the water will reduce after boiling, do i need to add water whenever i drink the malunggay tea? Is there also a wy to preserve it so that i can bottle it for sale? Thank you very much.

  12. aloha,

    since we always use filtered water for malunggay juice, when the water boils, I turn off the stove. Its up to you if you want to add water when you drink the tea. As to selling it, that I don’t know how to preserve it.

    you’re welcome.
