ABSTRACT The goal of the study was to formulate spirulina and Moringa oleifera-based nutritious pills. As the population grows and the demand for vegetables rises, the nutritious content of vegetables is declining in India. The usage of chemical fertilizers, which don't offer enough nourishment, is being done to satisfy this demand. Moringa oleifera and spirulina, which are both great sources of protein, vitamins, amino acids, and minerals, can beused to make nutritional tablets to help with this problem. For a tablet formulation of powder Moringa oleifera leaves with powder spirulina, a ratio of 7:3 is suggested.The tablet formulation consists of 71.4% Moringa oleifera and spirulina complex, 8.0% Starch, 2% CMC, and 1.5% magnesium stearate. Through careful optimization of the formulation and manufacturing process, the resulting tablets exhibit desirable characteristics such as appearance, weight variation, hardness, friability, and disintegration. These nutritional complex tablets offer a convenient and effective way to supplement one's diet with a comprehensive blend of essential nutrients. Overall, this review highlights the potential of Moringa oleifera and spirulina powder as key ingredients in the formulation of nutritional complex tablets.
