There is not a lot of human evidence at this point in time, but the majority of animal evidence uses rats as the models and uses a water extract of the leaves. When those conditions are met, it appears that 150-200mg/kg oral intake is deemed as optimal in these animal models. It is important to note that due to differences in rodent/ human biochemistry, it is often difficult to directly extrapolate human equivalent dose-response on a mg/kg basis.
The human studies currently in existence have used either 500mg of the leaf extract or 3 grams of the seeds. *
The daily dose of Moringa oleifera is 3 capsules a day to be taken before the main meals. Clinical studies describe the benefits of this supplement for doses ranging from 420 mg to 2 g daily, to be adjusted according to age, condition or disease and the extent to which it occurs. Be sure to follow the instructions on the label of our products.
As for the powder, the recommended dose to start or for those in good health is 1 teaspoon a day (1 teaspoon = about 2 grams of powder), combined with the meal. After taking the supplement for a week, you can decide whether to increase the dosage by listening to your body.
Those who practice a competitive sport or who are subjected to periods of great stress and fatigue should take 2 teaspoons of powder or 5 capsules a day. Through Moringa, these people can meet their needs for vitamins, mineral salts and proteins needed to achieve high yields or to increase stress tolerance. *
