BOBIE.INFO. Matabu. Moringa leaves, or Moringa oleifera, are widely known as a superfood with numerous health benefits. One important property currently being widely researched is their ability to naturally control blood sugar levels.
Numerous studies have shown that moringa leaves contain the compounds isothiocyanate, quercetin, and chlorogenic acid, which play a role in lowering blood sugar levels. These compounds help improve the performance of the insulin hormone, allowing blood sugar to be utilized more effectively by the body’s cells.
Furthermore, moringa leaves are also rich in natural fiber, which slows the absorption of sugar from food in the intestines. This prevents blood sugar levels from spiking after meals, making them beneficial for both people with diabetes and those seeking to prevent the risk of the disease.
“Moringa leaves can be an alternative natural therapy for people with diabetes, while maintaining a healthy diet and physical activity,” said a herbal health expert.
People can consume moringa leaves in various preparations, such as clear soup, moringa leaf tea, herbal capsules, or moringa powder that can easily be mixed into drinks.
With these benefits, moringa leaves are considered a simple, natural solution to help maintain balanced blood sugar levels and support long-term health. (bobie)
