Moringa Tea or Soup? Or a Soap Bar, and more! – 10% Off This Week
Have you heard of Moringa? Also known as Moringa oleifera? Moringa is a fast-growing drought-resistant tree native to the Indian subcontinent. In India, it is also known as drumstick tree. In Sanskrit, it is called “shigru.” Its leaves and fruit – drumstick – are edible, but the Moringa tree is key for our health, specially during seasonal detox. Even modern science now confirms that Moringa can help:
Regulate Blood Sugar Levels
Enhance Digestive Health
Purify/detoxify blood
Boost immunity
Facilitate stronger bone development …
Help prevent Respiratory Diseases
Boost female sexual health
But that’s not all! Moringa carries:
7 times more Vit C than an orange
3 times more potassium than a banana
3 times the amount of iron found in almonds
25 times more iron than in spinach
4 times more calcium than in milk
2 times more protein than in milk
And if this is still not enough to wow you, it has
47 different antioxidants
The greater potency of vitamin C and potassium, along with calcium, protein, iron, and amino acids, help your body heal and build muscle. It’s also packed with antioxidants, substances that can protect cells from damage and boost your immune system.
All of this in just one plant.This is why Vaidya Mishra dubbed Moringa “a divine plant.” You can understand why they are divine gifts of Mother Nature – they carry a perfect combination of balancing and rejuvenative properties. Not only do the ancient ayurvedic texts recommend Moringa, but the scientific community keeps publishing papers that attest to the incredible nutritional, therapeutic and prophylactic properties of this ancient divine plant.
Moringa thrives where other plants and ingredients fail. Although the plant’s many parts are used – leaves, flowers, seeds, fruit and even bark – in the Vedic tradition, the leaves and the fruit are particularly favored in cooking, for daily nourishment and detoxification, alone or with some lentils (mung or masoor preferably). SVA recommends using it daily for nourishment and detoxification because it is very effective in ridding the bone tissue of accumulated toxic waste. Since it targets the bone tissue, it is then also good for the blood and fat tissue – toxins travel through the blood, the muscle and then the fat before reaching the bone as one is built on the other. As a side-benefit, moringa also supports the detoxification of the liver.
There are also additional benefits to consuming Moringa on a regular basis:
It is great for eyes, skin – it detoxifies the skin and nourishes the eyes
It can help lower cholesterol since it supports the liver and purifies the fat tissue
It can help with joint pain resulting from the local accumulation of toxins because its primary action is to detoxify tissues, particularly the fat tissue
Long-term use supports our immune system.
It is tridoshic – balancing for vata, pitta, and kapha – however, if you are a high pitta body type, make sure to always cook it with a pitta pacifying masala. Alternately, you can use the SVA Moringa Soup Mix which has been formulated to be balancing for all three doshas.
Enjoy Moringa in of the many formats that Vaidya Mishra made available for us: as a powder for soup; as a delicious tea blend; as concentrated nectar drops in your water; or even transdermally as a soap – see the beautiful results on your skin daily.
Enjoy the divine gifts of Mother Nature through Vaidya’s unique pranic formulations - Namaste!

“Over the last 15 years I’ve spent countless hours learning, studying, practicing, and sharing the knowledge of Ayurveda and the enlightened wisdom its unveiled. Living and sharing how to live an Enlightened Ayurveda Lifestyle has become my life’s passion and work.
A yoga class in 2005 was my first introduction to Ayurveda. Immediately the principles resonated, but it took a year before I acted, and only because my entire health and wellbeing fell apart. My “American Dream” life was becoming a nightmare. My digestion was all over the place (IBS), I had blinding anxiety and panic attacks, sleep issues, and my hormones were completely out of whack with perimenopause symptoms.
I was only in my mid 30s and fearful my MD would write a handful of prescriptions and be medicating my symptoms for the rest of my life. That vision of my future scared me. Before relenting to this path, I decided to give Ayurveda a try, hoping to get to the root cause of all my health issues and challenges.
In less than 30 days, I experienced improvement in every health issue, all through sustainable Diet, Self-Care and Lifestyle practices. Not only did Ayurveda get to the root cause of my health issues, it helped me begin unveiling my true self.
By 2011, I started making a complete career change from Accounting and IT to Ayurveda. My ongoing journey of self enlightenment through my Ayurveda practices provided a message loud and clear – You must share your knowledge and wisdom.
Today, I offer Ayurveda bodywork, Ayurvedic and Functional Medicine wellness coaching, panchakarma (Ayurveda purification), retreats and workshops. My focus is to create personalized mind, body and spirit aligning experiences that Enlighten the Wellness Within YOU.
A common thread through all of my knowledge, practice and inner wisdom is strongly aligned with the 5,000+ year old Ayurveda lineage of Shaka Vansiya Ayurveda, brought to the U.S. by Vaidya Rama Kant Mishra, a Pulse and Marma master. Vaidya Mishra was my first teacher of Ayurveda and remains my most influential teacher, even after his passing in 2017.” ~ Carol Nace
