Moringa and benefits
Because of its nutrition, Moringa has a reputation of legendary proportions. The botanical name is “Moringa Oleifera.” It grows in Southeast Asia (Sri Lanka) and Africa. Further, moringa tea, brewed from the leaves of the Moringa tree, presents a healthful infusion with a refreshing taste and numerous benefits.
