The Potential of Moringa oleifera as Immunobooster against COVID 19:A Review
Muhammad Fajri

BPTP Yogyakarta


Abstract

After COVID 19, people will be more selective in the food they eat. The types of food chosen are those that have health benefits, especially as immunity boosters. The problem is what types of products can provide these benefits en masse, cheap, and easy to reach. This review aims to explore the potential of the Moringa plant as a plant that can be a source of functional food as a post-COVID 19 immune booster. The method used is to review various journal references that discuss research results related to the use of moringa plants and specifically those related to the anticipation of COVID 19. Based on the results of a review of various literature, it was found that the Moringa plant has various functional properties. These health functions include, among others, as an anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti-tumor, anticancer, antihypertensive, antiasthmatic, anti-urolithiasis, anthelmintic, anti-fertility, anti-hyperthyroid, and anti-Alzheimer. One of the roles of moringa plants in dealing with COVID 19 is as an immune booster. This is important because one of the factors that cause the different severity of COVID 19 patients is the immunity. People with a good body^s immunity tend to be able to survive infection and attacks by the SARS-Cov-2 virus. Some of the components of moringa that play a role in this are kaempferol, pterygospermin, morphine, quercetin, and apigenin-7-O-rutinoside. Apigenin has the highest activity against SARS-Cov-2- MPro (the main protease of COVID 19).
