If your dog or cat has been dealing with itchy skin, a sensitive stomach, or just isn’t acting like their usual spunky self, it might be time to introduce a little superfood support into their daily routine. Enter: Moringa oleifera - a leafy green miracle plant that’s earned its title as a superfood for a reason.
And yes, it’s a key ingredient in our Daily Defense™ powder for pets.
🌿 What Makes Moringa a Superfood?
Nicknamed the “miracle tree,” Moringa is one of the most nutrient-packed plants in the world. Used for centuries in traditional herbal medicine, it's now recognized globally for its incredible health benefits - for both people and pets.
For dogs and cats, it’s a gentle yet powerful way to support whole-body wellness.
This incredible plant contains:
✔️ Over 90 essential nutrients
✔️ 46 antioxidants to help neutralize damaging free radicals
✔️ 36 natural anti-inflammatories to soothe internal and external irritation
✔️ All 9 essential amino acids—a rare find in plant-based nutrition
✔️ Vitamins A through E, plus minerals like magnesium, calcium, iron, and potassium
But the benefits don’t stop at its nutrition label. Moringa is also:
- Highly bioavailable – meaning your pet's body can easily absorb and use its nutrients
- Supportive for brain and nerve health – thanks to compounds like quercetin and chlorogenic acid
- Naturally detoxifying – supports liver and kidney function for gentle, daily cleansing
- Rich in plant-based calcium – great for bone strength and joint support, especially in senior pets
- Alkalizing and anti-fungal – helping to balance internal pH and reduce yeast overgrowth, which can contribute to itching, licking, and ear issues
All of this translates to better support for your pet’s immune system, skin, digestion, energy levels, and even their mood - without synthetic additives or fillers.
🐾 Why It’s in Daily Defense™
At Glacier Peak Holistics, we carefully selected Moringa as a foundational ingredient in Daily Defense™ because of its whole-body benefits for both dogs and cats:
✅ Immune Support – Antioxidants help pets fight off free radicals and cellular stress.
✅ Skin & Coat Health – Its natural anti-inflammatory properties help soothe irritated skin, hotspots, and dander.
✅ Digestive Balance – Moringa’s fiber and enzymes promote gut health, healthy stools, and less digestive upset.
✅ Natural Energy – The nutrient-rich profile supports vitality, especially for aging or low-energy pets.
And when it’s paired with other supportive herbs like barley grass, bee pollen, dandelion root, sea vegetables, and diatomaceous earth, you’ve got a formula that doesn’t just treat symptoms - it supports your pet from the inside out.
