Abstract
Moringa oleifera is one of the most important herbal plants which has wide potential of pharmacological activity. Its extract has good potential of curing many diseases. Nowadays Moringa Oleifera have been essential for daily use because of its multiverse’s utilization. Moringa oleifera has many bio- active constituents like alkaloids, tannins, chlorogenic acid, flavonoids in various parts of this plants which provide various pharmacological activities in the body. Such bio-active components are found in leaves, stem, flowers as well as in roots, so every part of this plant is very useful. In this study numerous features of Moringa oleifera, with an emphasis on its therapeutic potential has been done in brief. Extract of the plant has very good potential for use as anti-aging, antioxidant, antimicrobial as well as anti-diabetic. We believe it is a promising subject for future experimental and clinical research.
