I would be very interested to know of any studies that have been carried out
to evaluate the potential of Moringa as a dewormer in humans. I have come
across some reference to Moringa's potential in some papers, but cannot find
specific reference to studies that have actually been carried out to verify
conclusively.

Jim Sahr Kelly, a master grower of Moringa is in the Tankoro and Gbense Chiefdoms, Kono District is doing exploit in the cultivation, propagation and popularization of the Moringa plant. As he calls it a miracle plant with many healing powers, there is need for some attention on the cultivation of such plants both for its economic viability and medicinal potency.
I personally got my persuation about the plant after meeing and listening to the account of Mr. Kelly about this miraculous plant Moringa.

I have personally tested the potency of dried moringa seeds, as a very effective laxative. Perhaps further lab tests could establish the deworming aspects. EFA have distributed hundred of moringa seedlings in recent years in communities where it works and thus, would be very interested to participate in further studies of the properties of this 'miracle' tree. Mr B M S Turay - Dean of the Njala Paramedic School and leading taxonomist and herbalist in Salone ( Sierra Leone Traditional Healers Association - SLENTHA) could be a potential leader / coordinator of such home-based efforts. This is his phone number - 076 663 286
