The document discusses the potential of Moringa leaves to address malnutrition. It notes that Moringa leaves are extremely nutritious, containing more vitamin A than carrots, more vitamin C than oranges, more calcium than milk, more potassium than bananas, and more protein than yogurt. Tests in Senegal found that consuming Moringa leaf powder helped pregnant women, nursing mothers, and children maintain or increase weight and improve health. The document also discusses research on cultivating Moringa as a field crop to produce large amounts of leaves and notes its potential applications for human health, livestock, and agriculture.
The Moringa Life Project aims to create sustainable communities and alleviate poverty by harnessing the nutritional and economic benefits of Moringa. It partners with local NGOs to employ women in impoverished communities in Africa and Asia to cultivate, process, and export Moringa powder. This provides income to the communities while also distributing Moringa's nutrition. The project has partnered with Shape Live Foundation in Ghana, which employs local women to process Moringa into powder using sanitary standards. The project has improved living conditions and empowered women by providing income, fuel-efficient stoves, and other assistance.
