What is Organic Moringa Powder?
Moringa, often called "The Tree of Life" or "The Miracle Tree", actually looks more like a large bush than a tree. It has been consumed and used for therapeutic benefit for centuries in Africa and Asia, as the leave, pods, seeds and even roots are edible. No part is as nutritious as the whole leaves which contain protein, fiber , minerals and antioxidants. It grows so efficiently due to its hight chlorophyll content which can be up to 4 times that of wheatgrass.
