Moringa or kalamunggay in the Visayan language and malunggay in Tagalog is one of the cheapest vegetables in the Philippines. If a neighbor has a malunggay tree, that neighbor would be happy if you would ask for its leaves because the more you harvest its leaves, the more the leaves become lush and healthy looking.
This vegetable (malunggay) is used to feed (Feeding Program of the Department of Education) malnourished children in public schools of the Philippines for its nutritional value from its availability in almost all communities in the country.
