Moringa Seed Oil as Per BP Grade (British Pharmacopoeia)

Moringa seed oil is derived from the seeds of Moringa Oleifera, a fast-growing, drought-resistant tree from the Moringaceae family. Commonly known as the Drumstick tree, Ben tree, Horseradish tree, or Benzolive tree, it is widely cultivated in India (native to the Himalayan foothills), as well as in Kenya, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Malawi, Bangladesh, and various regions of Africa. The tree reaches a height of 10–12 metres, with open, drooping, and fragile branches. Its fragrant, hermaphroditic flowers begin to bloom within six months of planting.
