Moringa is sold as leaf powder, seed oil, pods and more, often under the same single word. The label is where they are told apart.
One: the species
Moringa oleifera. Shigru, drumstick tree and horseradish tree all point here, as the tree guide explains.
Two: the part
Leaf, seed, pod and root are different materials, as the parts guide shows. A label should say which one it contains.
Three: powder or extract
A plain powder and a concentrated extract are different materials. An extract should say so.
What else is worth having
Net content, capsule count and strength, and evidence of batch testing. Moringa Capsules carry Moringa oleifera, 60 capsules of 600mg.
