Moringa is also known by its scientific name - Moringa oleifera, and the miracle tree as well as drumstick tree. It is a tree that is blessed in its entirety and highly valued for its nutritional composition and medicinal properties from the leaves, bark, root, to seeds. All the parts of the tree are useful.
Moringa leaves are nutritious and provides a lot of benefits to the human body and men in particular which will be a case study for this post. Moringa could be converted to powder, tea, and even pills. It depends on the preference of the consumer. In Nigeria, most people would prefer to just soak the leaves in water, and extract the juice out into a cup and drink - as easy as that. Others may like to boil it and extract the juice. Some people also pluck the leaves, sundry it and grind into powdered form.

Moringa has a lots of health benefits for men. In this post I'd share some of the benefits, and side effects.
Health Benefits
Moringa is rich in glucosinolates. Glucosinolates is a component of the Moringa plant that has a positive effect on prostrate health of male rodents (as concluded in a research by scientists). This could be likened to beneficial to men as well, preventing them from developing human prostrate cancer.
In another research, moringa plant has been proven to improve blood flow in the penis of rodents (specimens used to conduct the study) and also to improve erectile dysfunction in people that are suffering from diabetes. In relation to humans, Moringa plants could be used to ameliorate erectile dysfunction in men. Erectile dysfunction is an health issue that some men doesn't have the ability to keep an erection for a long time due to some health reasons.
