Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil

Moringa Oleifera Seed Oil is the oil expressed from the seeds of the Moringa tree (Moringa oleifera), a large white-flowered tree native to India. It is a yellow oil similar in character to olive oil, rich in oleic acid (approximately 75%) and behenic acid (up to 8%). Its high behenic acid content contributes to notable oxidative stability and a long shelf life.
