Please do your research are you adding Lemon (acid to Moringa). You are braking down all beneficial nutrients. The Idea is to help the body get more alkaline and less acid. This seems wrong. Lemon , Line , milk and sugar to not have favorable results when added to Moringa. Maybe you could write an article proving me wrong.
Hi James. Thanks for your comment. Our research shows that moringa retains the most nutrients when its leaves are eaten fresh or dried (our Pure Moringa Powder is made from dried moringa leaves). Cooking moringa can result in the loss of nutrients; however, there are ways to retain them. For example, if you boil moringa leaves, don’t throw away the water since it will contain most of the nutrients, and if you saute moringa, use oil to help retain nutrients in the leaves. This document has some other useful tips for cooking with moringa: http://pdf.usaid.gov/pdf_docs/PA00K8N9.pdf.
We have not seen any research showing that lemons can have the same leaching effect. If you have some research that we could learn from, please share it with us!

I couldn’t agree more that smoothies are perfectly perfect for on-the-go. Thanks for sharing this lovely post. Great read!
We’re so glad you like it! Thanks for reading!
Great drink, when lemon metabolizes and is digested it produces alkaline byproducts.
Thanks for sharing.
