I saw people selling branches of this tree in the streets in Santo Domingo.
Flor de libertad o Moringa Latin name Moringa oleifera
This tree grows wild in the countryside and a lot of local people know just how good it is. Here is some information Protein 42%, Calcium 125%, Magnesium 61%, Potassium 41%, Iron 71%, Vitamin A 272%, and Vitamin C 22%
They are saying this is a tree that would solve malnutrition. Maybe everyone should grow one in their back yard.
If it is 125% calcium hwre is there room for the other incredients, or even room for the 25% above 100%? Like the loaves of 12 grain bread marked 100%whole wheat!
