Schools are making innovative ways of reminding the students, especially the young ones, that eating healthy foods is very important. That is why in this celebration, Team Acosta joined through feeding the elementary students of Magtuod Elementary School. Team Acosta served the healthy and hot Moringa Tuna Lugaw.

Here are some benefits Moringa can give your body:

It's nutrient-packed.

Moringa is rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. It contains significant amounts of vitamins A, C, and E; calcium; potassium; and protein.

It protects the cardiovascular system.

Moringa leaf powder has heart-healthy benefits, particularly in blood lipid control, the prevention of plaque formation in the arteries, and reduced cholesterol levels.

It protects the liver.

Moringa contains high concentrations of polyphenols in its leaves and flowers that protect the liver against oxidation, toxicity, and damage.
