Ingesting Moringa Oleifera in capsule form: How and when to take them
October 17, 2023
Some people use Moringa capsules to boost their immune system and reduce the risk of seasonal illnesses, while others take them to stabilize their metabolism and hormone levels or to ensure better nutrient intake in their vegan or vegetarian diet.
Others use Moringa capsules to treat arthritis, diabetes, anemia, obesity, constipation, and more. This miracle tool is called Moringa Oleifera, a tree native to the sub-Himalayan areas of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan and is grown in many countries with tropical climates.
This plant is one of the most nutrient-dense and antioxidant superfoods found in nature. But what is the best way to take them? And what should the daily dosage of Moringa in capsules be? Let's find out together in the next few paragraphs.
Moringa Oleifera: What do the capsules contain?
Moringa oleifera is called the "Tree of Life" because of its life-saving effects in some developing countries and because every part of the plant, from flowers to fruits, from seeds to leaves, is a treasure trove of benefits that contribute to it to keep the body healthy.
We call it a "miracle plant" because it is the most nutrient-dense plant ever discovered: the leaves contain 46 powerful antioxidants, 36 anti-inflammatory agents including quercetin and caffeic acid, 30% plant proteins and all eight essential amino acids.
In addition, our Moringa capsules contain an amount of vitamin C that is seven times higher than that found in oranges, four times the calcium found in cow's milk, four times the vitamin A found in carrots, three times the potassium found in bananas, as well essential minerals such as zinc, magnesium, sodium and iron and omega-3 fatty acids. Just by listing this data, you can imagine how many benefits taking Moringa in capsules brings to the entire organism.
Today, Moringa oleifera is also readily available commercially, mainly in the form of powder, or even more commonly as Moringa in capsules, and can therefore be easily integrated into your daily diet.
To keep all nutritional properties intact, it is important to choose a supplier who respects the principles of European ORGANIC agriculture and dries the leaves naturally in the sun, as we do.
Everything in the moringa plant is edible, from the pods, which resemble asparagus, to the flowers, which vaguely taste like mushrooms, to the seeds, which can be cooked like peas. However, the most commonly used are the leaves, which for convenience are packaged in convenient capsules contained in a blister.
It is advisable to avoid the roots, trunk and branches as they can cause stomach upset and poisoning. Therefore, these parts are never found in Moringa capsules.
Taking Moringa Oleifera:
Taking Moringa in capsules is the best way to take Moringa. The product is 100% natural and safe for the body as it contains no additives, and it offers the advantage of convenience for people who are constantly on the move.
Moringa in capsules is the most convenient dosage form, perfect for busy individuals who want to reap the benefits of this exceptional dietary supplement, even when traveling or in the office. It is quick and easy to take and can easily be integrated into your daily routine. In addition, taking Moringa in capsules allows the entire prescribed dose to be absorbed without the risk of any part remaining in the glass.
Moringa can also be taken in powder form, which can be dissolved in hot water or added to drinks and foods such as fruit juices, smoothies, milk and yogurt, as well as savory dishes such as soups, stews, curries and broths.
Moringa can be used to prepare bread or any type of cake without the active ingredients losing their properties.
In addition, it can be mixed with water and applied topically to the skin to soften skin tags and promote healing of wounds, warts and bites.
Powder offers great flexibility in dosage and the ability to adjust the dose as needed. However, it is a cumbersome and difficult method to perform for those who spend long hours away from home and cannot carry the bulky packaging with them. Therefore, taking Moringa in capsules always remains the best method to combine health and convenience.
Moringa Oil: An alternative way to take Moringa oleifera
Not just Moringa in capsules: there is also oil on the market that is obtained from the seeds of Moringa oleifera. It is rich in oleic acid, which when applied to the skin increases softness and elasticity, slows aging, reduces wrinkles and has astringent and germicidal effects. Moringa seeds actually have scientifically proven antibacterial properties that could be used, for example, to purify water in countries without access to drinking water.
Moringa Oleifera in capsules: daily doses
The recommended daily dose of Moringa in capsules is 3 capsules per day, taken before main meals. Clinical studies describe the benefits of this dietary supplement at doses ranging from 420 mg to 2 g per day, depending on age, diagnosed condition and severity. Make sure you follow the instructions provided on the label of our products and take the Moringa in capsules as directed to get the best possible benefits.
As for the powder, it is recommended to start with 1 teaspoon of powder per day (1 teaspoon is about 2 grams of powder) and take it with a meal. After taking the supplement for a week, you can decide whether you want to increase the dosage by listening to your body.
People who engage in intense sports or are exposed to periods of great exertion and fatigue should take 2-3 teaspoons of powder or 4 capsules per day. These people can use Moringa to meet their needs for vitamins, minerals and proteins required for peak performance or increased resilience. Therefore, in addition to the traditional Moringa capsules, you can choose from different formulations depending on your needs.
The application of Moringa in capsules or powder and its multiple uses
As an anti-inflammatory agent, effective in conditions such as asthma, gastritis and arthritis, a dosage of 3 grams of the supplement per day for at least 3 weeks is recommended. You can take Moringa in capsules according to this dosage. For a faster laxative effect, it is recommended to take 2-3 teaspoons of powder on an empty stomach (if there is no gastritis) with water.
In developing countries such as Indonesia and the Philippines, nursing mothers are given the leaves of the moringa tree in the belief that they can increase breast milk production, although there is no scientific evidence to support this. The recommended dose to increase milk production is 4g of the supplement twice daily. It is recommended to consult your doctor before taking moringa in capsules or other formulations.
Moringa in capsules is also recommended for weight loss, stimulating fat consumption and curbing food cravings. Experts recommend taking 2-3 capsules per day, 10-30 minutes before meals to achieve the best results in the shortest time. Of course, the use of Moringa in capsules does not in any way replace a healthy and balanced diet, but rather fits into a balanced diet, as is the case with all dietary supplements.
Although Moringa in capsules does not contain any substances harmful to the human body, excessive consumption of Moringa can cause gastrointestinal problems such as nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea and heartburn. It is recommended not to abuse it and to respect the indicated doses. The use of Moringa in capsules is particularly recommended as it offers a perfect daily supplement without the risk of overdose.
