Moringa Leave
Moringa trees are fast-growing, drought-resistant plants that can reach up to 12 meters (40 feet) in height. The leaves are small, oval-shaped, and grow in a tripinnate pattern, forming clusters. The tree also produces long, slender pods filled with seeds, which are also edible.
Moringa leaves, derived from the Moringa oleifera tree, are known for their exceptional nutritional profile and medicinal properties. Often referred to as the “drumstick tree,” “miracle tree,” or “tree of life,” Moringa is native to parts of Africa and Asia and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and as a food source.
