For thousands of years, plants have been a significant source of medicine. According to estimates from the World Health Organization (WHO), up to 80% of people still get their medications mostly from traditional remedies like herbs. These plants' elemental composition and the presence of a range of phytochemicals provide them therapeutic potential. The ability of medicinal plants to prevent or manage disease has been linked to the antioxidant qualities of their contents, which are typically linked to a variety of amphipathic molecules collectively known as poly-phenolic compounds. The food business and preventative healthcare are becoming more interested in the creation and assessment of natural antioxidants derived from medicinal plant components. Moringa oleifera is one of the herbs that shows promise. This tree's leaves, fruits, blossoms, and immature pods are all edible and are consumed as a highly nutritious vegetable in many places, especially Hawaii, India, the Philippines, and several African countries. Because of the chemical components of M. oleifera, it is utilized in underdeveloped countries as a substitute for imported food supplements to treat and prevent malnutrition, particularly in new-borns and nursing mothers. Traditional medical systems have employed drum stick seed extract5. As a result, support has been provided for the metal analysis of seeds of M.oleifera. To determine the metal content, the finely ground fruit and seeds of M. oleifera were examined. Several common methods, including Colorimetry, Kjheldal's Method, Atomic adsorption spectrophotometer, and Flame photometry, were used to analyse a material12. It was noted that while zinc, copper, iron, and manganese were found in considerable amounts, phosphorus, nitrogen, and calcium were detected in small amounts. It was shown that the fruits of C. Equisetifolia have higher concentrations of Zinc, Copper, Iron, Arsenic and Manganese than the seeds of P. Longifolia. According to research currently available, seeds of M. oleifera may be a good source of zinc, iron, manganese, & copper. Seed of M.
