Maternal mortality is still becoming major public health problems over the world. All countries, especially developing countries has taken a part to deal with this problem. The most common causes of maternal morbidity and mortality are anaemia during pregnancy. It is estimated that almost 30% of reproductive women are anaemic while pregnant women were 38.2%. Micronutrient supplementation is widely used to prevent anaemia during pregnancy and proved that the pregnancy outcome was better. However, a Moringa leaf, a local plant, is considered to contribute on anaemia prevention. This literature explained the benefit of micronutrient and Moringa-based supplementation in anaemia prevention and better pregnancy outcome. Based on literature, iron-folic acid is a global standard supplement program which used in many developing countries to prevent anaemia during pregnancy. Currently, studies on Moringa extract give evidence to government and community to utilize this local food in order to prevent anaemia and adverse pregnancy outcome.

Moringa is a plant commonly used for its medical properties. However, studies have shown contradictory results. The aim of this review is to evaluate the possible association between the use of Moringa during pregnancy and breastfeeding in relation to the health status of both the mother and the baby. A search of the PubMed and EMBASE databases on the literature published during the period 2018–2023 was conducted up until March 2023. The population/exposure/comparison/outcome (PECO) approach was used to select studies on pregnant women, mother–child pairs, and the use of Moringa. Out of the 85 studies initially identified, 67 were excluded, leaving 18 for full-text evaluation. After assessment, 12 were finally included in the review. In the articles included in this work, Moringa is administered during pregnancy or in the postnatal period in the form of leaf powder (MOLP), as a leaf extract (MLE), as an ingredient associated with other supplements or in preparations.
