Therapeutic potential of water treated by Moringa oleifera leaves

Abstract

Water is the universal solvent, of course it cannot dissolve everything, but it does dissolve more substances than any other liquid. Water molecules have a polar arrangement of oxygen and hydrogen atoms—one side (hydrogen) has a positive electrical charge and the other side (oxygen) had a negative charge. This allows the water molecule to become attracted to many other different types of molecules, due to this attribute it can dissolve many phytochemical components from medicinal plants  even at normal room temperature. Moringa, a well known plant have rich source of vitamin and protein , it also have pharmacological properties to fight against numerous diseases such as anticancer, hypotensive, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antihelmentic and many more but due to its acrid taste people avoid it^,s consumption it diet The aim of present study was to screen and to identify useful phytoconstituents present in MLTW. GC-MS chromatogram showed the presence of more than 60 different phytochemical compounds. The active fraction of the MLTW was identified as 1,2,3-Benzenetriol or pyrogallol (antimalarial), N-hexadenoic acid (Cytotoxic) and many more compounds was found to be  present in Moringa leaves treated water (MLTW),which may serve as bioactive agent for the humans as well as animals.
