From a nutritional standpoint, moringa leaves contain: Polyphenols and flavonoids plant-based antioxidants thought to reduce oxidative stress Isothiocyanates sulphur-containing compounds with potential anti-inflammatory properties Chlorogenic acid also found in coffee, and studied for its possible role in glucose metabolism Vitamins and minerals including vitamin C, vitamin A, calcium, and iron The proposed mechanisms by which moringa might influence body weight include modulation of fat metabolism, reduction of inflammation associated with obesity, and potential effects on blood glucose regulation
Separate signaling cascades can also determine an increase of cytosolic Ca 2+ which includes the phosphorylation of PKA after GLP-1 receptor activation, the increase of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K) levels and the mobilization of Ca 2+ stores [33, 36]
Therefore, before considering this kind of practice, always consult with your healthcare professionals to ensure safety and reduce associated risks
