Health notes

In the U.S., moringa leaf extract is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when used as a dietary ingredient. While rich in vitamins and antioxidants, scientific research on its specific health benefits and effects at typical dietary intake levels is ongoing. International bodies like EFSA have not established specific safety evaluations for moringa leaf extract as a food additive.

Allergen info
