Moringa oleifera Lam is the scientific name for the Moringa tree, a fast-growing, drought-resistant plant that is native to the foothills of the Himalayas in India but is now grown in many parts of the world. The tree is commonly referred to as the "miracle tree" due to its high nutritional content and numerous medicinal properties. Source: https://moringapowder.pk/moringa-powder-benefits/
