Understanding the benefits of Moringa
Good nutrition is key to an effective and strong immune system. Moringa contains 92 vitamins, minerals, and 46 antioxidants. Moringa has a high concentration of vitamin C, which is a potent antioxidant and immune booster. Moringa contains 7 times more vitamin C than oranges. Therefore, moringa protects against infection or infectious agents (viruses, bacteria, fungi).
What makes Moringa so nutritious?
Moringa contains a large number of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Moringa contains 4 times the vitamin A in carrots, 4 times the calcium in milk, 7 times the vitamin C in oranges, 3 times the iron in spinach, and 3 times the potassium in bananas. Other compounds in moringa include polyphenols which act as antioxidants and prevent free radical damage in the body, isothiocyanates which have anti-inflammatory properties and chlorogenic acid which controls blood sugar levels. Moringa also contains Tryptophan, an essential amino acid. An essential amino acid cannot be manufactured by the body and must be obtained in the diet. Tryptophan is the precursor to serotonin and melatonin. Serotonin regulates anxiety and mood while melatonin is necessary for sleep.
How Moringa plays a Vital role in regulating your immune system
The immune system is a defense system in the body. The immune system protects us from infections (invasion of the body by pathogens) and foreign bodies. Regulation of the immune system is crucial to maintaining homeostasis within the body and achieving optimum health. Immunomodulators play a role in regulating the function of the immune system. Moringa is an immunomodulator.
Moringa contains a large number of essential nutrients (vitamins, minerals, and amino acids). Modern-day food has a low concentration of essential nutrients and consuming food alone cannot provide the body with the essential nutrients required to maintain good health. These essential nutrients must be obtained by supplementation. When the body is deficient in some or many of these nutrients, the body cannot function effectively and disease or illness results. Consuming moringa supplements daily may assist in the management of overall health and wellbeing.
