nishi foods moringa powder
What is moringa?
The Moringa Tree or Moringa Oleifera to use its scientific name, is a medium-sized tree that is native to Africa and Asia. It is also known as the ‘drumstick tree’ or the ‘miracle tree.’ Every part of the moringa tree is valuable: its seeds can be used to purify water; its bark, roots and flowers all have incredible medicinal properties and its leaves are one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet.
Nishi Foods Moringa Powder is made from the finest quality young moringa leaves which are harvested right here in Tonga, naturally dried and ground into a powder.
Nishi Foods Moringa Powder contains 5 essential vitamins at source or rich source levels and is also high in fibre, protein and antioxidants - it really is one of nature’s most prized creations.
how is moringa powder made?
NIshi Moringa is a natural powder made from dried moringa leaves. Although the processing of moringa leaves is simple, the quality is dependent on the delicate conditions needed for harvesting and drying - therefore, not all moringa is made equal.
To ensure nutrients are not damaged by the sunlight, our moringa grown here in Tonga is harvested before dawn.
The leaves are washed in purified water before drying. At this stage, the nutritional values of the leaf increases greatly - up to 10 times more than the fresh leaves!
The dried leaves are then ground into a ready-to-use green powder, perfect for giving your food and drinks a nutritional boost.
