Moringa Leaf Tea

Description

Moringa leaves contain all twenty amino acids, chlorophyll, minerals such as especially calcium and potassium, trace elements such as especially copper and iron, as well as B vitamins, vitamins A, C, D, E and K. They are rich in antioxidants such as the rare zeatin and the antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin, which are important for vision. Their antioxidant potential is not so noticeable in direct comparison with other plants, but really comes into its own in the living system.

This variety, like the other teas is of the highest quality and imported from Maya Garden. Maya Garden’s concept promotes traditional farming and involves small farmers in an educational initiative to train them in natural cultivation. A fair price is paid for the moringa leaves to sustainably improve the living conditions of the rural population.

This unique product is completely in our hands. From the cultivation and harvest in Nicaragua, the export, to the bottling and labeling at our company in Main-Spessart, everything is done by Biosa & Maya Garden and shipped with love!

Preparation

The infusion time is an essential factor for the Moringa leaf tea. If it is too short, the healthy drink does not yet have the desired abundance of vitamins and other nutrients. On the other hand, if it is too long, the tea can quickly taste quite bitter. About five minutes is recommended for a household-sized cup. The dried leaves are simply put into the tea strainer with the help of a spoon. For the best taste, a heaping teaspoon per cup is best.

There is one popular mistake to avoid when preparing Moringa tea. The tea is a drink with a large amount of contained nutrients. In order to maintain these vitamins, minerals and amino acids, and thus the health-promoting effect, it is of utmost importance to prepare the tea at an appropriate temperature. Even at temperatures far below the boiling point, for example at 90 degrees Celsius, a large part of the health-promoting ingredients is already destroyed. The best thing to do is to give the whole thing a bit of a safety margin and aim for a temperature of just under 80 degrees when preparing the tea.
If the taste is still too bitter, you can flavor the Moringa tea with a variety of foods. Honey, agave syrup or maple syrup are suitable for this purpose. If a revitalizing and fresh character is desired, the refinement with lemon or lime juice is recommended.
You can also mix this tea with the other premium teas from Maya Garden.

Manufacturer “Moringa Maya Garden”

The manufacturer Markus Neubert of Maya Garden has decades of experience in Central America from his work in development cooperation.

The cultivation takes place naturally and with exclusively organic means. Only the tender, green leaves are harvested and processed fresh. No leaf stalks are processed, these are also rich in vital substances, but because they are indigestible, they cannot be absorbed by the body.

How well the moringa plant can thrive and how high its nutrient content is depends on the quality of the soil, the fertilizers used and the cultivation method.

In the case of moringa, however, there is another factor that significantly determines its quality:

The transformation into Moringa leaf powder. This process can either be done gently, preserving all the nutrients in the leaves, or it can strip the plant of all its significant ingredients. Moisture is gently removed from these moringa leaves in a controlled manner at 38 °C. Temperatures above 38 °C destroy the valuable nutrients of Moringa Oleifera.

In the leaves of MAYA GARDEN they are preserved by the gentle dehydration process. At the end, the leaves still have a residual moisture of 5 – 7%. With us you get high quality powder. The finished product of MAYA GARDEN contains neither dyes nor preservatives, but only Moringa leaves.

Thanks to the advantageous conditions, especially high-quality Moringa plants grow in Nicaragua, Central America. Moringa from MAYA GARDEN is grown in the northwest of the country on fertile, volcanic soils, which provide ideal conditions for their development. The cultivation is completely natural with exclusively organic means.
