Anticancer garden first public presentation – HACKATON, Zagreb, Croatia 21/5-22/5/2014Prvo javno predstavljanje Anti-kancerogenog vrta – HACKATON, Zagreb, Hrvatska 21/5-22/5/2014

Hackaton, Zagreb

Anticancer garden had its first public presentation on Hackatone (http://radiona.org/hackathon_subtle_tech), which is a festival that promotes new media and intermedia discipline with crossings from technology, art and biology.

In this two days we experienced a chance to present the garden and to think how and in which direction we should further prepare our project.

We see our first chance in community gardens in Zagreb that our Mayor is giving to people who would love to own a garden, but cannot because either they don’t receive the money or simply don’t hold any place to behave it. That’s why we decided that this should be our next step. So we wrote a letter to our Mayor in which we kindly ask about getting a city parcel that we would use for anticancer garden.

In our letter, we also mentioned that our garden would be open for all and that it would serve the community as public good.
Yesterday we sent it… Keep your fingers crossed :)

Miracle tree (Moringa Oleifera)Čudesno drvo (Moringa Oleifera)

moringa11

In today’s blog, I will try to present you Moringa Oleifera tree and its particular qualities and nutritional attributes that can aid with cancer healing.

Of course, it’s very important to emphasize that all of the plants that we’ll observe are also being used with the handling of other diseases, not just cancer. Their essence is best considered in detoxification that takes up at all levels of body, psyche and heart.

Moringa tree (Miracle tree)

Moringa tree is surely at the very top of the ladder with its nutritional indegridiens.
There are 14 plants from the Moringa family and we’ll talk and describe mostly about the Moringa Oleifera which is also known as the “Miracle tree“. Miracle tree is mostly found in South and Middle America, Mexico, Malesia, India, Shri Lanka and Africa.

Why the name Miracle tree? Because, all of the tree components can be used either like food or like medicament. So you can use bark, seeds or leaves. For food we mostly use leaves and seeds are usually being fried or prepared. Seeds are very rich in vitamin C and the pulverization of the dried seed is applied for water cleansing.
The tree can get up to 10 meters and usually it develops in wet and in the tropics. Because of that, the temperature should never be below 10 degrees in winter and below 20 to 30 degrees in summertime.
Studies have shown that Moringa cures more than 300 diseases and it holds more than 90 nutritional components and 45 antioxidants. The active component in Moringa is Pterigospermin which causes its antibacterial activity.

The first plants I have planted….

The feeling when you see the first shoot from what was yesterday, only a seed is beautiful and very exciting. Sprout represents new life and so it brings out hope that someday we’ll succeed to help those who suffer from cancer or other serious illness.

From the day when we planted our first plants it has passed more than 20 days and this pictures are one of the many that we took.

I truly hope that in the next days, moths and years you’ll have the opportunity to participate more in the growth of your and our anticancer garden…
