May Lower Blood Sugar Levels
Serious health issues might result from high blood sugar. In actuality, it is diabetes' primary feature. Over time, having high blood sugar levels makes a person more susceptible to heart disease and other major health issues. It's crucial to maintain good blood sugar levels because of this. It's interesting to note that much research has suggested that moringa oleifera may help reduce blood sugar levels. The majority of the data, however, is supported by animal research. There aren't much human-based research and those that do tend to be of poor quality.
In research involving 30 women, taking 1.5 teaspoons (7 grams) of moringa leaf powder daily for three months resulted in an average reduction of 13.5 percent in fasting blood sugar levels. Adding 50 grams of moringa leaves to a meal lowered the rise in blood sugar by 21%, according to a smaller trial including six diabetics. According to scientists, these effects are brought on by plant substances like isothiocyanates.
