      abstract = {Moringa oleifera, the ?drumstick tree? or ?horseradish tree?, is native to India and a well-known around the world for its?many great uses. Its nutrition and medicinal benefits have been extensively described in?both the regional and international scientific press. Owing?to its diverse uses, interest in Moringa oleifera has increased in recent years. Widely known as the??Miracle Tree?, all parts of this plant have either nutritional or pharmaceutical value. Fast growth, good nutritional?value, and drought tolerance make the crop an important contributor to food security in the developing world. In addition to its nutritional value, Moringa has?potential for water purification and crafts, and its importance in agro-ecological conservation has also been argued. Most importantly, it helps conserve soil and?water and it represents a tool for climate change adaptation. This review will seek to review scientific literature and documentation on multifaceted functionalities with medicinal and nutritional potential. Finally to suggest its relevance for mitigating climate change and explain strategic guidelines for research, policy and market development.},
