Should You Use Moringa Powder for Sex? A Moringa Powder Review
You’ve heard of using moringa powder for sex but you’re wondering if it’s any good. I tried it out and I talked with the experts, did the research and here’s what I learned, including my Kuli Kuli moringa powder review. (Spoiler: it’s an acquired taste!)
What is moringa?
Moringa is a plant native to parts of India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. It’s an important food source for fighting malnutrition in parts of Asia and Africa. The leaves can be used like spinach or dried and turned into powder. The oil is also used in food, perfume and hair products. Not only is moringa rich in antioxidants and minerals, but it’s also a source of protein.
What is the effect of moringa on sex?
It’s widely accepted that moringa leaf powder is very nutritious. All you have to do is look at the nutrition label on a package of the superfood powder to see that it will benefit your health.
But what does it have to offer your sex life?
Nutrition for sex
Moringa is noted as a potent source of vitamin C and potassium, both nutrients essential to sexual health. (It has 15 times as much potassium as banana.) A one-teaspoon serving of Kuli Kuli moringa powder offers calcium and trace amounts of fiber, protein and magnesium as well as 32mg of potassium.
Moringa benefits sexually for men
The majority of clinical research into moringa and sex is on men, or at least animal test subjects. And much of it shows that moringa may be great for a man’s sex life as well as fertility. In one study on male rabbits, moringa leaf had a positive effect on sperm concentration and motility.
There is also some evidence that moringa may have a link with prostate health.
Potential sex benefits for women
Most of moringa’s sex benefits are supposedly for men. But I’m a woman and I wanted to investigate what it would do for me.
I couldn’t find a single study on female subjects to support the claim that moringa will boost a woman’s sex life. However, I did find confirmation that moringa contains flavonoids associated with the reduction of inflammation. And since inflammation can impair sexual arousal and enjoyment, it is fair to conclude that moringa could help at least some women augment their sex life.
Can it increase libido?
While I couldn’t find studies to prove moringa will have an impact on a woman’s libido, there are studies illustrating a potential impact on sex drive for men.
When it comes to moringa for men’s libido, the antioxidants found in this superfood powder have the potential to promote good blood flow. Keep in mind that healthy blood flow is key because it not only helps your heart but also makes sexual arousal possible.
A 2015 study demonstrates that moringa may improve libido and even enhance sexual performance in some men. The study discovered that moringa reduced stress-induced erectile dysfunction…at least in rats.
Unfortunately, the study concluded that further research is required to successfully use moringa to treat erectile dysfunction caused by stress in humans. For now, the results are promising but inconclusive. Luckily, moringa has plenty of known benefits you can definitely enjoy from eating this superfood.
Other potential benefits
Moringa is considered good for the immune system so it may potentially help keep you healthy and ready for action in the bedroom when the opportunity presents itself.
Additionally, if you’re looking for foods that benefit skin health to keep you looking your most sexy, moringa is a great choice. Moringa skin benefits include a dose of vitamin A. (Moringa leaves have an abundance of carotenoids that form vitamin A, which is essential for healthy, vibrant skin as well as eye health.)
Why should you try Kuli Kuli moringa?
I had been hearing all about moringa before I ever tried Kuli Kuli Foods’ products. But when this moringa manufacturer samples arrived at my office, it was the first time I’d ever personally experienced moringa powder.
A manufacturer of premium moringa products, Kuli Kuli is the vision of a former Peace Corps volunteer Lisa Curtis. And she discovered it as a volunteer in Niger. Today, Kuli Kuli makes a variety of superfood bars, teas and moringa shots for energy as well as the superfood in its pure, powdered version.
All of Kuli Kuli’s products offer an eyebrow-raising level of nutrition. One tablespoon of this powder is equal to a full serving of leafy greens. Even if this product can’t turn you into an instant love machine, that kind of nutrition is a fantastic benefit.
What does it taste like?
The powder has a very distinct, rather bitter flavor and weed-like aroma. You’ll need to work up to an acquired taste with this superfood. I was fine after about a week but it was not remotely enjoyable for the first few days.
Uses
Part of the reason everyone on the Eat Something Sexy team who tried it really liked Kuli Kuli’s moringa powder is that it mixes very well into soups and smoothies. (It’s a great way to hide the powder’s slightly unpleasant herbal notes.)
The best way to use this moringa supplement is to mix it into something you’re already planning to make. Each serving offers 50% of your daily iron plus protein, fiber, vitamin A and potassium. This is a fact I love. As a busy parent and business owner, I don’t always have time to get balanced nutrition from my meals. So mixing it into the smoothie I’m already making gives ease to using this nutrition booster.
If you’re not too keen on adding this green powder to your morning smoothie, Kuli Kuli now has an alternative for you. The company now offers moringa gummies with all the same benefits as the powder but in cute, little gummy squares. The moringa vitamins are flavored. Choose between green apple, berry and lemon.
I have not tried the Kuli Kuli gummies. But the reviews I read were encouragingly positive. So if chewing the gummies feels like a better fit for your lifestyle than using the powder in a daily smoothie, this could be your solution. Keep in mind that the gummies have added sugar.
Should you try moringa powder for sex power?
My experience using Kuli Kuli moringa powder was positive but not profound. What I noticed was a subtle increase in energy. I also observed that the inflammation I sometimes feel in my hands disappeared when I used the Kuli Kuli moringa leaf powder regularly.
My conclusion is that if a lack of energy is part of what’s holding back your sex life, moringa could be your sex superfood. And it may be that for some, moringa leaf powder has benefits to libido as well. There’s certainly enough data to make experimenting worthwhile. I encourage you t0 try it yourself and see how it works for you.
Where to buy moringa
Kuli Kuli’s superfood powder and gummies are sold across the U.S. at major pharmacies and grocery chains including CVS and Safeway. You can also order directly from the manufacturer with free shipping and a subscribe & save program. Or you can simply order from Amazon for fast delivery.
