You need to try it out

By Bola YemiPublished 3 years ago • 13 min read
7 days effect of moringa

Moringa the miracle

Research tells me that Moringa has a compound called Moringin

Moringa has powerful anti-inflammatory properties as well as Anti-oxidant properties

What I have done here is use the product over a 7-day period

So, what are you going to learn in this Moringa review?

You're going to find out how Moringa affects your energy levels

whether Moringa affects your mood

Whether Moringa has any effects on your sleep

whether Moringa contains caffeine

how Moringa affects your appetite

and how Moringa affects your Blood pressure

Indeed if you're someone with High Blood Pressure, I want you to pay attention to what I did on Day 5 & Day 7

You may want to take a cue from that

So I've getting a lot of requests from you folks

You wanted me to find out about a new product that is sweeping the internet

The product is called Moringa. Yes, Moringa

I thought, the best way to go about it would be

for me to actually test-drive the product

myself. That way, I can give a considered opinion

about it

So, here we are. What I have done

in pursuit of this is to get the product from a popular retailer

This is the product here. I've got 2 of the products

One is the powder. So, I'm just going to open it

I paid for this product myself

I haven't been supplied it by the retailer

So here we go. I'm just going to rip them open now

That way I can give an unbiased opinion about them

This is the tea

This the tea. Moringa infusion tea

as you can see there

That's the tea

Not only that I also got

the powder

Rip it open as you can see here

so here is the powder

That's the powder there, as you can tell

Today is going to be Day 1 of the Test-driving

I'm going to use the powder today

Let me rip it open

It looks like it is in a resealable bag

Yes, it is resealable

One of the things that has been claimed by the Retailers as well as the manufacturers

is that Moringa has the essential fatty acids

Omega 6, Omega 3 and Omega 9

They also talk about the fact that it's got all the essential amino acids that we need

and it's got minerals as well

in particular, Potassium, Which is good

I always love that. Products with lots of potassium. Always good for high blood pressure

And as you know lately, I have been talking a lot about fiber

So I'm looking at the Nutritional information here

It says, the fiber content for this is about 27%

in 100 gm of this moringa powder, you have 27.1 gm of fiber

That's fantastic. I love that

It's also got Vitamin A, C and Calcium as well

This is all good

The 1st thing I'm going to do today is

Use the Moringa powder

I've got oatmeal that I have just prepared

earlier on

So this is oatmeal here

One way you can use your Moringa is to add it to Oatmeal

That's what I'm going to do here

They usually recommend a Spoonful

It's green

because it's made form the leaves

I'm just going to add a Spoonful here

This is the oatmeal

Made from Rolled Oats. I'm using Rolled Oats today

This is just a Spoonful

Maybe I should add another half of this

And go Crazy with it!

Mix it together

A tablespoonful and half

That's what we got here now

This is Moringa Oatmeal. that's what we going to call it

I'm excited actually about this

Never been excited about Porridge in my life

Let's go. Let's see what it tastes like

It tastes a bit herbal

as you would expect. But it's not sharp. The taste is not sharp

It's a bit neutral. That's the way I'll describe it

Today is Day 1. I'll let you know what the outcome is

By the end of the day

So, what's happened so far

The 1st thing I'll say is; I haven't had any upset stomach

because when you take something powdery, a herbal product

you wonder if it's going to upset your Gastrointestinal Tract

So far, nothing like that

No upset stomach

I don't feel sick

And I haven't had the runs so far

It's about 8 hours since I had it

I don't know whether it's going to happen later on. So far, Nothing

I have no side effects to report so far

What else? I've felt

really calm today. I'm not usually a boisterous person

although some of you might disagree

I've been calm. Bearing in mind, I've done something stressful in the last 2 hours

I'm still incredibly calm

Moringa seems to be working from that point of view

Talking about being calm, let's see what my blood pressure is

Bearing in mind I've been doing something stressful in the last 2 hours, let's see what my Blood pressure is

Here we go

128/76

That's not bad at all. 128/76

So this is Day 1. We see what day 2 has in store for us

Welcome back. Today is Day 2

of the Moringa Test-drive

We are still testing the Moringa powder

What we're going to do today is

Moringa Latte

That's what I'm going to test the Moringa on today

Moringa Latte

What do we need for the Latte? We need 4 ingredients

We're going to need Milk

I've got a Plant-based Milk here

This is Oat milk

We're going to need a bit of ginger. This is fresh ginger

Some pieces of ginger. Just a small slice from this one here

Of course, we're going to need the Moringa powder

We'll need just a drizzle of honey

You don't have to bathe it with so much honey

Don't forget, honey has sugar in it as well

The milk I have warmed it. It's a little bit warm

I found out that the moringa powder doesn't dissolve very well in cold milk

So, let's start preparing the latte

Pour the milk into a cup

Add the pieces of the ginger

Add a drizzle of honey

You don't need to flood it

You don't need more than that

Of course we going to need the moringa powder

Add 1 tablespoon of the Moringa powder

Next we going to blitz it

So there we go

Here is our Moringa Latte

Ready to be served

Pour into a cup

That's it. It's ready

So, I'll have a taste

Because I added a bit of ginger

That's given it a bit of a kick

It's got that spiciness to it

But it tastes good

I'll drink this and I'll tell later in the evening how it goes

So, Day 2. You'll recall, I had the Mroinga Latte this morning

So, what happened?

Before I continue, let me just say this

I had a very good night sleep last night

I don't usually have problems falling asleep

As you know, I am obsessed with having good sleep

because that's good for my blood pressure control

I can confirm that I had a good night sleep

It tells me Moringa hasn't got caffeine in it

Just to corroborate that as well.

I can also confirm that the whole of today, Day 2

that I had the Moringa latte today

I have felt nervous or jittery or had 'the shakes'

That also tells me that Moringa hasn't got caffeine in it

So, that's good

The only thing I discovered today was that

after I had the Moringa latte this morning

1 hour later, I was very hungry

OMG, I was really really hungry

It stimulated hunger and I am not sure why

Whether it's the Moringa or whether it's the fact that I had ginger in it

I have no idea

There's no way I can decide on what actually caused the hunger

that's one downside

In the sense that if you have the latte

there's a good chance you could stimulate hunger

You could say, that's a downside

So that's been today's report

Let's see what my blood pressure is like today

125/85. That's what we've got today

125/85

That's not bad. It's not perfect. But it's okay

That's it for day 2. We'll see what happens tomorrow

Today is day 3 of the Moringa test

I'm away from home

I am in my little man cave here

at work. Because of that I cannot do any extensive recipe here

So I am using the Moringa tea today

The tea is easier to use here at work

I have had a cup this morning. It's about Mid-day now

This is the tea here. I'm having another cup this afternoon

I'm just going to have a little sip here

Later tonight I will give you a feedback as to how I feel

using the Moringa Tea

I had the Moringa tea this morning

as well as this afternoon

as you saw earlier on

So I had it twice today

Something happened the 1st hour after I drank it this morning

I felt a little bit warm and fuzzy, in a good way

I don't know whether because I was rushing to get to theatre this morning

Or whether it's the tea that was responsible

I'm going to corroborate that tomorrow

and I'll let you if that's still the case

Something else happened which I'll talk about tomorrow

I just want to see whether the effect is still the same very time you take it

This is the TEA

So let's see what my blood pressure is going to be like on Day 3

So Day 3 brings us 127/83

127/83

Not bad for Day 3

This is on Moringa tea

We see what day 4 brings tomorrow

So, today is Day 4 of the Moringa Test-drive

What did I use today? I used the Moringa tea

I had 2 cups today

One in the morning and another in the afternoon

The one of the morning I had it on an empty stomach

I can confirm that Moringa

at the Tea anyway

does give a bounce

because when I was in Thetare yesterday, my Theatre Nurses

they noticed a Spark

an extra Spark about me yesterday

I did tell them I was test-driving something

a Tea. They were asking: they want

some of it

So, Girls, if you want it, the LINK is going to be down there

when you watch this video, you can go get it, if you want it

It does give a Bounce and a Spark

The Moringa tea

That's the main report for today

So, let's see what the BP reading is going to be like today

We've got 123/71

123/71 That's not bad for Day 4

We'll see what Day 5 brings tomorrow

So today is Day 5 of the Moringa Test-drive

We're going to have a vegetable salad

Of course, we're going to add the Moringa powder

I have just made this Salad dressing here

This is a nice sweet and sour salad dressing here

The recipe for this salad dressing is going to be in the Wellness forum

amongst others

We're going to add the moringa powder to the Salad dressing

And of course, we add the dressing to the salad

It's a simple vegetable salad

We're using the powder today. In the last 2 days

I've used the Moringa tea

But today, it's going to be the powder

I'm going to add a Tablespooful and half

of the moringa powder to the dressing

Now we're going to blitz it together

The dressing is going to change colour shortly

Suddenly our salad dressing has turned Green in color

That's the salad dressing now

We going to pour that to the salad

and mix it together

It's going to give the salad a very nice beautiful taste

Already mixed together

I really love it

I'll talk to you later in the evening and I'll tell how I feel about the Moringa powder today

So day 5

of the Moringa test-drive

You'll recall I had the vegetable salad today

along with the Moringa dressing

It's been a good day

I have had a lot of energy

bearing in mind I had some vegetables as well

Vegetables are always good for you

along with the Moringa

I had a very nice energy boost today

I went for a 1 and half hour walk

Brisk walk

My mood has been very great

So far the experiment is working

Let's see what my blood pressure is going to be like today

Today, day 5 - 106/70

That's not bad for day 5

We'' see what Day 6 brings. See you tomorrow

Today is Day 6 of Moringa Test-drive. We are going to have a Smoothie

I've got beetroot. I've got banana

I've got blueberries and I've got strawberries

BBBS Smoothie

That's what we going to call it. BBBS Smoothie

Of course it's going to be a 'Riot of colors' here

We'll see what the color turns out to be

I'm going to add the moringa powder

I'm going to add the Moringa powder to the Smoothie

Add a Spoonful and half

That's the Moringa powder. Next, just

add some milk and then

we blitz

Off it goes onto the Nutribullet

Excellent. So here we are

This is our Smoothie

It's turned out to be more red than anything else

This is our Moringa Smoothie

Of course, there's more to it

Pour into the cup

Then we drink

What does it taste like?

One word. DELICIOUS

In the evening I'll tell you how the day went

so Day 6 report of the Moringa Test-drive

It's been a good day so far

I think today will be a good day to report that

So far for the 6 days

that I have been using the Moringa now

I have not experience any side effects

So I felt I needed to report that today

So NO Side Effects

What else? Essentially, it's been the same theme

I have had lots of energy. Of course bearing in mind

today I had the fruit smoothie

In that fruit smoothie, there are a lot nutrients at play

Probably everything that I felt today

is not attributable to Moringa

I felt I should point that out. I had beetroot. I had blueberries

I had banana. I had strawberries

They laso have contributed to the way I feel today

It's been a very good day

I have also had lots of mental clarity

since I've been using the product

whether it's due to the Moringa alone is difficult to say

That also continued today

So it's been a very good experience so far

So that's day 6

Let's see what my blood pressure is going to be like today

We've got 120/74

120/74

We'll see what day 7 brings

So day 7 of the Moringa test-drive

This is the last day

I haven't got a lot to report today

I've just been on a 1 and half hour walk

I'm just going to give summary but before then

let's just check my blood pressure on day 7

We've got 111/64

111/64

Now to the summary

I have used the Moringa herbal remedy now for the last 7 days

I have to say I've had a very positive experience with it

I have used both the Moringa powder and the Moringa Tea

These are the 2 products that I have used in the last 7 days

Does it matter which one you choose? Not really.

I have had positive experiences with both

Did I experience any side effects with both products? No, I didn't

Do these products affect sleep negatively? No, they don't

Do these products affect mood negatively? No, they don't

Do they boost energy? Yes, they do, actually

I think I had a nice energy boost with them

Something else that need to add

I have used both products but I have not used them exclusively

in the sense that

I do other things as well

For instance, I do exercise daily

Tonight I have been on a 1 and half hour walk

Exercise is part and parcel of the deal

I also eat healthily

So all of those will contribute to the results that I got

So will you have the same results as I did in the last 7 days?

Probably. But of course, results do vary

You have to put some extra work in

I always say that herbal remedy should be part of a wider strategy

to managing your health

inclusive of your blood pressure

And at this point, I should answer the question:

Do these products (Moringa tea and Moringa powder) help blood pressure?

Well, from my experience, they do

As you can see in the last 7 days, I've been checking my bllod pressure everyday

I've had some fantastic blood pressure readings

Of course you should take a cue form the things I did on day 5 and Day 7

So, on a scale of 1 - 10, how much do I like this product?

I'll say an 8

Yes, an 8. That's how much I have actually enjoyed using the product

To all intents and purposes, Moringa is a nice product

I will recommend it

I'm going to leave Links down below, if you want to get your hands on it

Also share the video with anybody whom you think would benefit from watching it

If you've got any comments to make, make them down there

I think that's about it. Until next time,
