MORING OIL

Moringa oil comes from the seeds of the Moringa oleifera tree The seeds, harvested from their pods, yield
approximately 3540% of non-drying Moringa oil, also known as Ben oil or Behen oil.
Moringa seed oil is clear and odorless. Thanks to the numerous antioxidants in it, the oil does not become rancid for
several years after it is produced. This makes it sought after for a number of health and beauty applications.
Moringa oil is among the most desired oils in the formulation of skin care products and cosmetics, chosen for its
many antioxidants and documented skin-rejuvenating properties. These antioxidants do wonders for aging and
nutrient-depleted skin.

and also helping the skin and hair retain moisture. Moringa oils benefits include skin care and rejuvenation, stronger
and healthier hair, wrinkle reduction and skin blemish removal. Moringa oil suppliers often have a tough time keeping
up with the demand for this rare and luxurious oil.

Antioxidant Properties
Recent studies indicate that the leaves and seeds of the Moringa tree possess strong antioxidant properties due to
the presence of both enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants. A 2009 research study published by Sreelatha and
Padma in the academic journal Plant Foods for Human Nutrition indicated that the antioxidants present in both
mature and green leaves offer superior protection against free radicals. The study also showed that the antioxidants
in the leaves behave in a comparable manner as pharmaceutical grade antioxidant preparations. The pods and
seeds are also useful in protecting cells from oxidation damage. The Journal of Herbal Medicine published a study by
Kumar, Kumar, Singh and Vasisht in 2007 that demonstrated the antioxidant properties of these seed pods against
the action of free radicals that can cause cancer and other damage to cell structures within the body.
