Abstract Moringa oleifera, known as the drumstick tree or "miracle tree," is native to India and widely used in Ayurveda. Rich in vitamins, minerals, flavonoids, and phenolics. It is recognized for its nutritional and therapeutic properties. Traditionally, it has been employed to treat various ailments, including inflammation, infections, digestive disorders, and respiratory conditions such as asthma and bronchitis. Its leaves, seeds, bark and roots are used in diverse preparations, reflecting its versatility as a natural remedy. For pulmonary diseases like asthma and bronchitis, Moringa oleifera demonstrates anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and bronchodilatory effects. It reduces airway inflammation, suppresses oxidative stress, and alleviates bronchospasms, while its mucolytic properties help clear mucus, offering relief in bronchitis. Despite these benefits, modern scientific validation is crucial. Rigorous clinical trials are needed to confirm its efficacy, develop standardized formulations, and ensure consistent results, bridging traditional knowledge with evidence-based medicine for effective respiratory disease management.
