Moringa leaves can also be used to cure or reduce high sugar level in the body. It eliminate the presence of sugar in our blood level. Excess of sugar causes diabetes but Moringa will help you lower your sugar level in the blood.
This is a very interesting post. I had not come across Moringa oleifera before. Your post has lead me to do a little more digging, and this is a summary of what I have learned, since you posted.
❶ ...there is no high-quality evidence to indicate that (M. oleifera) has any effect on health or diseases.ᵃ
❷ M. oleifera ... may inhibit the anti-hyperglycemic effect of Sitagliptin.ᵇ
I used to be on a medication called Vildagliptin, which, at a dose of 50mg once daily, is apparently comparable in effect to taking Sitagliptin once daily at 25mg. These two medications are both Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors.
❸ I am not a clinician or a medical professional myself, just a diabetic who has done a bit of University-level study in the past. The quotes above from Wikipedia both cite the article:
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. (2020). Moringa oleifera. Accessed 6-Apr-2022, from mskcc.org.
This article, in turn, cites (amongst many other references):
