NEWTOWN, CT, June 28, 2012
/PRNewswire-iReach/ -- In an independent test, Moringa oleifera scored
the highest in antioxidant content of any food yet discovered. Beating
the record-holding acai berry by over a 50% margin, Moringa Source
Moringa oleifera leaf powder measured over 157,000 umoles using the
Oxidant Radicals Absorbent Capacity (ORAC) system of measurement
developed by the National Institute of Health's National Institute for
Aging.
"We
are very encouraged by the ORAC results because it signifies Moringa
Source Moringa oleifera leaf powder has twice the radical-quenching
power of Baobab and several other superfoods making it the most
antioxidant-potent food on the planet," said Jim Fitzpatrick "While clinical
trials are necessary to show the definitive effect on the human body,
this is overwhelmingly positive for Moringa oleifera."
Known
as the "Miracle Tree," Moringa oleifera's naturally-occurring
antioxidants support the prevention of cancer and other diseases that
attack the body's cells. Antioxidants, such as those found in Moringa
Source's comprehensive line of Moringa products, aids cell restoration,
which can combat oxidative stress by preventing free radicals from
reacting and causing damage to cells.
The
ORAC test on Moringa Source Moringa Oleifera leaf powder was conducted
by independent lab Brunswick Laboratories. "By commissioning the study,
it was our intent to draw more positive attention to the rich
antioxidants found in the phenomenal Moringa plant," Fitzpatrick said.
"Equally as important is the fact that Moringa Source's Moringa Powder
contains more than 27% protein including the 8 essential amino acids, 25
vitamins and minerals as well as many other beneficial
phyto-nutrients."
In
addition to ranking first in antioxidant content, Moringa oleifera
contains over 90 nutrients such as vitamins, proteins, amino acids, iron
and calcium, offering unique anti-aging and energy-enhancing
characteristics. The benefits of this "super plant" have been embraced
as one of nature's most powerful sources of nutrients to support healthy
living in the India, Africa and South America for more than 2,000 years. Health and wellness experts in the U.S., including Dr. Mehmet Oz , and in Europe
have begun recommending Moringa oleifera for sustained energy and
general wellness. Moringa oleifera was recently featured on "The Dr. Oz
Show" as a way to jump-start the day and re-energize your life.
