Moringa oleifera is a fast-growing tropical tree native to northern India, at the foot of the Himalayas, now cultivated across tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, from Africa to Southeast Asia and Latin America. It is often called the “tree of life” for its ability to grow in harsh conditions and, above all, for the exceptional nutritional richness of its leaves. The 60g pack of dried leaves is versatile — equally suited to brewing infusions or a wide range of culinary uses.

Complete plant protein: dried Moringa leaves contain between 25–30% plant protein, remarkably including all nine essential amino acids the body cannot make on its own — a rare completeness in the plant kingdom, making Moringa a valuable protein source for vegetarians and vegans.

Calcium and iron: dried Moringa leaves are extraordinarily rich in calcium, with levels reaching 2,000–2,500mg per 100g — far more than milk — as well as a meaningful amount of iron, an essential mineral for oxygen transport in the blood and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Antioxidant vitamins: Moringa is a natural source of vitamins A (as beta-carotene), C and E. Beta-carotene contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and skin; vitamin C supports the normal function of the immune system; vitamin E protects cells from oxidative stress.

As an infusion, steep 1–2 teaspoons of Moringa leaves in a cup of hot (not boiling, 80–90°C) water for 5–10 minutes, for a light green infusion with a mild, grassy taste reminiscent of spinach or green tea — enjoy plain or with honey, lemon or fresh ginger. In cooking, sprinkle the dried leaves directly onto salads, soups, vegetable dishes, pasta or rice, blend into green smoothies and juices, or rehydrate in a little warm water to add to omelettes, quiches and savoury tarts.

These Moringa leaves are certified organic, grown without synthetic pesticides, chemical fertilisers or GMOs, and dried at low temperature to preserve nutrients. At 2–3 teaspoons a day (about 4–6g), a 60g pack lasts around 10–15 days.

Pregnant women should consult a healthcare professional before use. Due to its vitamin K content, people on anticoagulant treatment should seek medical advice before regular consumption. Store in a cool, dry place away from light and moisture. Food supplement — does not replace a varied, balanced diet or a healthy lifestyle. Keep out of reach of children.

What’s the difference between leaf and powder Moringa?

Dried leaves keep their natural form and are ideal for infusions and sprinkling on dishes. Powder is finely ground from the same dried leaves and blends more easily into smoothies. Both offer a similar nutritional profile — the choice comes down to how you prefer to use it.

Does Moringa have a strong taste?

No — Moringa has a mild, grassy taste with herbaceous notes reminiscent of spinach or green tea. It’s neither bitter nor overpowering, making it easy to work into many recipes.

How long does a 60g pack last?

At 2–3 teaspoons (about 4–6g) a day, a 60g pack lasts around 10–15 days.
