People start to get addicted to it because you feel good!

That's pretty awesome. I'd like to grow a few of those.

Available from online vendors?

Snake Oil? Read Wikipedia article and it's sources: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moringa_oleifera . Over Hyped? how is it over hyped when people haven't heard of it? Over priced? it's one of the easiest cheapest trees to grow at home. Don't dismiss something because it wasn't included in a book...

Where did you find dead powder from? Its a tree. Did you google a Moringa store? haha. you know you can buy the seeds and grow it. The only reason I posted this on the nexus is because I know people who do grow trees here and they would love to add this beautiful plant to their gardens. Go do your research before claiming it takes years to grow... Moringa trees grow easily from seeds or cuttings. They grow quickly even in poor soil and bloom 8 months after planting.

Edit: Anyways, If you guys want free seeds/cuttings if you wait by next year. Id be willing to send some from my beautiful tree to people who would like to have their own tree. I am going to start in September, maybe I will update on the process as they grow with photos.

Moringa is good stuff, It's a miracle to Africa where malnutrition is an epidemic.
