What is Moringa? 

Moringa is a medium-sized tree that is native to Africa and Asia. Every part of the Moringa tree has value: its seeds can be used to purify water; its bark, roots and flowers all have incredible medicinal properties and its leaves are one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. 

How is our Moringa Powder made? 

Moringa is a natural powder made from dried Moringa leaves. Although the processing of Moringa leaves is simple, the quality is dependent on the delicate conditions needed for harvesting and drying - therefore, not all Moringa is made equal. To ensure nutrients are not damaged by the sunlight, our Moringa is harvested before dawn. The leaves are washed in purified water before drying. At this stage, the nutritional values of the leaf increases greatly - up to 10 times more than the fresh leaves! The dried leaves are then ground into a ready-to-use green powder, perfect for giving your food and drinks a nutritious boost. 

What does our Moringa Powder taste like?

Moringa also consists of 24% fibre. It has one of the highest antioxidant contents of any food.

What are the nutritional differences between Moringa powder and fresh Moringa leaves? 

When Moringa leaves are shade-dried like our Moringa, the nutritional content increases by over 10 times so generally speaking dried Moringa leaf powder has far superior nutritional value than fresh leaves. The only nutrient that is reduced by the drying process is the vitamin C content which is higher in fresh leaves. 

Why have I read conflicting information about the amount of vitamin C in Moringa? 

It is often reported that Moringa powder is rich in vitamin C however, this is inaccurate. While it is true that fresh Moringa leaves are high in vitamin C (containing 200mg per 100g), when Moringa leaves are dried to form a powder, the vitamin C levels diminish considerably. Dried Moringa powder has on average around 2mg of vitamin C per 100g, which is not enough to be classified as a source (it would need 12mg per 100g).

Is it safe to consume during pregnancy?

Generally speaking, if you are pregnant or trying to conceive, we recommend seeking medical advice before using Moringa or any of our other products.

That being said, you may be interested to know that if you are breastfeeding, Moringa has been scientifically proven to increase breast milk! This is because the leaves are a natural galactagogue, a substance that promotes or increases the flow of a mother’s milk.
