Moringa leaves
Moringa is packed with many health benefits and is sought after for its nutritional quality. It's a good source of vegetable protein and micronutrients. It contains the essential amino acids vital for the proper functioning of the body. It is nicknamed "the tree of life" because it plays a big role in the fight against malnutrition in underprivileged countries.
As a hot drink, it is consumed in the form of herbal tea and the taste is very mild. As a cold drink, we make iced herbal tea with ginger and lemon.
Nutrition tip : enrich your pesto or any other type of sauce with its leaves to easily meet your daily nutritional needs.
