Ever heard of Moringa? Yeh me neither. In fact it gets underlined as if I spelled it wrong in every program I've written it in so it must be new. Moringa is apparently the worlds most nutritious green and pretty soon you'll be seeing it in health stores around us if you haven't already see it now.
The term superfood is thrown around so often that its difficult to know if a product is a actually that good for you or if it's simply some marketing ploy to get you to buy products. According to studies Moringa is a superfood and more. Ancient warriors would use the the extract from the leaf as fuel for battle. If it's good enough for ancient warriors then it's good enough for me.
Here's some of the nutrient facts:
- 3- 5x the calcium of milk
- 4x the Vitamin C of oranges
- More Vitamin A than carrots
- More Iron than spinach
- More Potassium than bananas
How to consume it. Fresh leaves aren't a store staple yet as it grows mostly in California and Florida, but if you can get them add them to your salads. Skip expensive supplements and instead go for the dry powder. Simply add the dry powder to pre or post workout shake.
If you've tried Moringa or have any more information, post to comments, I'm curious if the benefits are true or simply fancy marketing again.
