BENEFITS
Here are all the benefits you can reap from using this powder:
PACKED WITH VITAMINS AND MINERALS
Moringa leaves stick out as a superfood because one cup of chopped leaves is considered a good source of iron, calcium, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and riboflavin has notable amounts of potassium, vitamin A, vitamin E, and magnesium. Moringa can contribute to everything from better vision and immunity to bone health and skin radiance.
A SOURCE OF PLANT-BASED PROTEIN
Powders made from its crushed leaves are packed with protein necessary for muscle repair, energy production, and mood regulation.
MAY HELP BALANCE HORMONES
A study published in the Journal of Food and Science Technology found that postmenopausal women who took a combination of moringa leaf powder and amaranth leaf powder for three months not only had decreased markers of oxidative stress, but they also had better fasting blood glucose and increased hemoglobin levels, which could mean more balanced hormones. Moringa has also been linked to improved thyroid health, which controls hormones related to energy, sleep, and digestion.
MAY PROTECT THE LIVER
Moringa contains high concentrations of polyphenols to reverse oxidation in the liver, and preliminary research has shown moringa consumption to reduce liver fibrosis and protect against liver damage.
HELPS FIGHT FREE RADICALS
Free radicals are created by things like pollution, fried food, and sun exposure. They damage your cells by robbing them of an electron, causing oxidative stress, cell damage, and premature aging. The antidote: antioxidants, like the flavonoids, polyphenols, and ascorbic acid found in moringa. A diet rich in antioxidants has been shown to prevent premature wrinkles and possibly make you live longer.
HELPS BALANCE BLOOD SUGAR
The leaf powder has been effective at reducing lipid and glucose levels and regulating oxidative stress in lab studies.
MAY IMPROVE DIGESTION
Moringa leaf powder contains about 30% fiber, most of it insoluble, something you not only need for digestion but that may also reduce your risk of disease. Moringa is a natural antibiotic and antibacterial and may help inhibit the growth of various pathogens that can cause digestive upset.
