Now more than ever it’s increasingly important to support our good health in every way we can. Diet, exercise, mental health, and more, are components of proper care for each of us. The more well-rounded our health is, the better we’re protected against the germs and pathogens that might do us harm.
Many people turn to herbs and supplements to support and enhance their immunity, and to assist their body in fighting off the everyday germs that cross their path. Moringa is one that’s worth looking into, as it’s loaded with good-for-you benefits that will not only keep your body running like a top, but literally make it an inhospitable environment for infections to flourish.
What Is Moringa?
Used in medicine for centuries and native to North India, moringa oleifera is a medium to large tree that is also commonly referred to as a miracle tree, drumstick tree, ben oil tree, or horseradish tree. I’m particularly fond of the “miracle tree’’ moniker because this tree’s leaves, flowers, roots, and seeds are all packed with miracle working magic. So it’s quite an appropriate name. Traditionally moringa has been used to treat:
- Bacterial, viral, and fungal infections
- Inflammation
- Joint pain
- Heart issues
- Cancer
