Extrait de feuilles de moringa 20x | 500 mg | QCE 10 000 mg | Soutien antioxydant | 120 capsules véganes

A 20:1 extract means 20g of raw dried moringa leaf is concentrated into 1g of extract. Each 500mg capsule contains the concentrated equivalent of 10,000mg (10g) of raw dried moringa leaf, expressed as QCE (Quantity Crude Equivalent). This concentrated form provides a consistent, standardized dose of moringa's active antioxidant compounds that would not be achievable with raw leaf powder at the same capsule size. When comparing moringa supplements, always compare QCE alongside milligram dose to assess true potency.

Moringa leaf contains a broad spectrum of antioxidant compounds including quercetin (a flavonoid antioxidant also found in onions and apples), kaempferol (a flavonoid with potent free radical scavenging activity), chlorogenic acid (a polyphenol found in coffee and other plants), and glucosinolates/isothiocyanates (sulfur containing compounds unique to the Moringaceae family). Together these compounds give moringa leaf one of the highest antioxidant activity profiles among commonly studied botanical sources.

Moringa leaf's polyphenolic compounds particularly quercetin, kaempferol, and chlorogenic acid neutralize free radicals and reactive oxygen species through hydrogen atom donation and electron transfer mechanisms. These compounds also modulate cellular antioxidant enzyme systems including superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, supporting the body's endogenous antioxidant defence. Consistent daily use provides ongoing antioxidant support as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

Moringa leaf powder is made from dried, ground whole moringa leaves it contains the full spectrum of leaf compounds but at the natural concentration found in the raw plant. Moringa leaf extract (20:1) is produced by extracting and concentrating the active compounds from 20g of dried leaf into 1g of extract, providing a significantly higher concentration of antioxidant polyphenols per capsule. Extract is preferred when a consistent, high potency dose of moringa's active compounds is the goal.

Moringa leaf contains isothiocyanates compounds that may affect thyroid hormone synthesis at high doses by interfering with iodine uptake in the thyroid gland. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you have a thyroid condition (hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism) or are taking thyroid medications. At the recommended dose of 1 capsule per day, this interaction is unlikely to be clinically significant in healthy adults, but professional guidance is recommended for those with thyroid conditions.

Moringa leaf has been studied for its effects on blood glucose and blood pressure. Consult a healthcare practitioner before use if you are taking blood pressure medications or diabetes medications, as moringa may have additive effects that require monitoring and dose adjustment. Do not self supplement with moringa if you are on these medications without professional guidance.
