Diabetes, a medical disorder affecting a large number of individuals worldwide, occurs when insulin, a hormone that controls the amount of sugar in the blood, is not produced in sufficient quantities. People with diabetes often don’t realize that the leaves of a plant commonly known as Moringa can be used to treat the disease by eliminating excess sugar from the body.
In this short essay, I will go over two methods for detoxing the body of excess sugar using Moringa leaves.
Healthline states that consuming raw Moringa leaves is one method of reducing blood sugar levels. Washing the leaves well before eating or chewing them slowly is recommended because it facilitates the breakdown of the leaves into a digestible state, allowing the chemical contents of the chewed leaves to be absorbed into the bloodstream.
The Moringa leaves can also be used as a tea by air drying them, then pounding or grinding them into powder and mixing them with water (hot or warm) to extract the contents. As a result, the Moringa liquid retains all of its nutritional value, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and insulin-like protein components. It increases insulin production and makes the body more sensitive to insulin’s effects, allowing for more efficient glucose elimination from the circulation.
The powerful chemicals in moringa leaves can induce or cause the uterus to contract in pregnant women, which can lead to some complications. As a result, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers should avoid consuming moringa leaves and roots.
