Moringa seeds are one of the most nutritious foods out there, making them a superfood. There are many ways in which the seeds can be consumed and eaten raw or roasted in oil.

On this page, I don’t want to go too much into details, but there is a lot of scientific research behind Moringa, and here are some facts:

One cup (140 g) of moringa seeds contains:

• Calories = 37
• Carbohydrates = 8.5 g
• Protein = 2 g
• Fat = <1 g
• Vitamin C = 235% daily value
• Iron = 350% daily value
• Potassium = 13% daily value
• Magnesium = 28% daily value
• Calcium = 3% Daily Value

Note the exceptional amounts of iron (350% of daily value) and Vitamin C (235%).

• Moringa seeds also contain 19 of 22 amino acids, including all 9 essential amino acids, which your body can’t produce itself. This is similar to other well-known “superfoods” seeds like sunflower and chia seeds.
• Meanwhile, the pods are especially fibrous, which can help with digestive issues.
• Even with this impressive amount of nutrients, moringa is very low in calories.
