Human brains need good nutrition to pass on different messages throughout the body. When we lack good nutrition and adequate water intake, energy levels go down. Some plant source foods can give the brain energy boost by offering a nutritious, supplement that support a healthy, clean diet.

Anti-oxidants, amino acids, folic acid, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E are among the best brain food ingredients. You may be surprised to know that moringa leaves are saturated with all these compounds. Vitamin C is one of the vitamins that can function as anti-oxidant. Moringa leaves have Quercetin and kaempferol which are unique anti-oxidants.

Vitamin E for brain functions are good once you take them with their potencies mentioned in the labels. This vitamin E may be processed from the leaves fruits roots or seeds of the plant. They are not subjected to high temperature, irradiation and no chemicals.

But synthetic vitamins have no micro minerals and they will utilize body’s own mineral reserves. When you consume natural vitamins, they will not make the body to exhaust body’s own nutrient reserves. They can substitute any nutrients, which are missing from the synthetic vitamins.

Increased serotonin levels in the body can calm done the nerves as they function as neurotransmitter. Essential amino acid L-tryptophan (LT) has the intermediate metabolite 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), which is involved in the biosynthesis of serotonin.

This compound 5-HTP cannot be shunt into niacin or protein production process. Therapeutic use of 5-HTP bypasses the conversion of LT into 5-HTP by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase, which is the actual rate-limiting step in the serotonin synthesis.

Researchers found that 5-HTP can easily overcome the blood-brain barrier. It increases central nervous system, synthesis of serotonin. In the CNS, serotonin levels have been implicated in the regulation of pain sense, depression, anxiety, hunger and sleep.

Moringa leaves have 5 HTP, Iron and zinc, which support the brain to function more efficiently. They have been found to increase mental clarity.
