Moringa
Moringa has gained a reputation for fighting inflammation and combating various effects of malnutrition and ageing, earning the nickname “the miracle plant.”
In 2008 the National Institute of Health called moringa (moringa oleifera) the “plant of the year,” acknowledging that “perhaps like no other single species, this plant has the potential to help reverse multiple major environmental problems and provide for many unmet human needs.”
To date, over 1,300 studies, articles and reports have focused on moringa benefits, finding that it contains compounds that are especially important in parts of the world where disease outbreak and nutritional deficiencies are common.
Dosage: Take 1-3 capsules when needed, or as prescribed by your health practitioner.
