Superfood Spotlight: Moringa Oleifera

The "miracle tree" Morina Oleifera is known as "nature's multi-vitamin". The leaves, flowers and seeds of the Moringa plant are edible and Moringa is one of the most nutrient-rich foods of all. Moringa powder is made from the naturally dried leaves of the Moringa tree and is an exceptional multi-vitamin source with 13 essential vitamins and minerals, is approximately 25% protein and is high in antioxidants.

Energiser Moringa is particularly rich in vitamin A: 100g of Moringa powder contains 325% vitamin A and 468% iron based on the recommended daily requirement, making it a real energy booster. Vitamin A supports the production of red blood cells, while iron also supports the formation of haemoglobin. Haemoglobin, the substance in red blood cells, transports oxygen around the body. In the case of iron deficiency, the body has to work harder to produce the required energy, which makes it all the more tired. The high iron content is also ideal for Vegans, vegetarians and anyone struggling with iron deficiency and low energy levels.

The high content of vitamin B6, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, riboflavin (B2), thiamine (B1) and niacin (B3) ensures an energising metabolism.

Healthy, radiant skin Moringa is rich in antioxidants and vitamins A, E, B2, B3 and zinc, which are so important for the skin. Moringa also contains all 9 essential amino acids that help form protein blocks responsible for growth, repair and maintenance of healthy skin cells. Moringa is also an excellent source of phosphorus, which supports skin functions. For example, the ability to repair or protect itself against external influences. Zinc is also important for healthy, strong hair and nails.

Pre- and anti-ageing With its exceptional antioxidant profile with six times as many antioxidants as goji berries and more antioxidants than green tea, açai and pomegranates, moringa is the chosen pre- and anti-ageing superfood. The antioxidants, vitamin E, riboflavin and zinc protect the cells from oxidative stress and thus the ageing of the skin.

Strong immune system Vitamins A, B6, iron and zinc are a powerful cocktail for a strong, healthy immune system.

Stress reduction Moringa is an excellent source of vitamin B6, magnesium, potassium, niathin (B3) and thiamine (B1) - all important nutrients to support the normal function of the nervous system and prevent or help reduce and manage over-stimulating stress.

Detox Detox stands for the body's ability to eliminate toxins that enter the body through diet and the environment, for a healthy, energised and ideally functioning body. Moringa supports the associated repair process in the body. The concentrated mineral content in Moringa generates energy, which additionally supports the body in detoxifying and the fibres support healthy digestion and intestinal flora. Vitamin B6 cleanses the liver, which can better break down and eliminate toxins in the body.

Flavour Unlike other green superfoods such as chlorella or spirulina, moringa tastes more pleasant and is reminiscent of spinach and dark green vegetables. Moringa can therefore be easily incorporated into the diet: In smoothies, juices, on salads, in soups and even in desserts.
