Carbohydrates

Yguá Moringa contributes a rich source of lasting energy and slow synthesis. There are differences between good and harmful carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates (sugars) that provide Yguá Moringa´s energy are on the low Glycaemic Index (<50), that allows the body to avoid using its reserves, or waste energy in synthesis, thus avoiding the rebound effect of an energy surge. The amount of energy provided by 100g of Yguá Moringa is 324 kilocalories.

The Moringa oleífera keeps sugar levels down, as rated on the Glycaemic Index. This is proved by scientific studies on the benefits for Diabetes II.

The study “Hypocholesterolemic effects of crude extract of leaf of Moringa oleifera Lam in high-fat diet fed wistar rats. Ghasi S1, Nwobodo E, Ofili JO”, as well as other studies, concludes that people with type II diabetes can incorporate M Moringa oleifera leaf powder into their regular diet in order to reduce glucose levels naturally by means of phenolic compounds (antioxidants) that slow down the destruction of the beta cells.
