International groups cite Phl malunggay

MANILA, Philippines - Various international organizations have forged a partnership with a local wellness company for the advancement of herbal medicine in the country after advocating locally grown malunggay as a “natural nutrition for the tropics” for its nutritional and medicinal purposes.

The International Association of Educators for World Peace, a United Nations NGO, represented by its national chancellor, Dr. Josef de Ubaldo, was also impressed by the healing effects of Malungai Life Oil, the only oil-based malunggay supplement in the market today that is rich in vitamin C, calcium, antioxidants and essential amino acids.

De Ubaldo, a staunch advocate of natural health medicine, was instrumental in lobbying of Traditional and Alternative Medicine Act Law in the Philippines.

He organized the recent sixth Philippine Congress and Exhibition on Natural Health held at Club Filipino in Greenhills, San Juan City.

The Manila Nature’s Link Inc., maker of Malunggai Life Oil, represented by its president and CEO Ariel Nepomuceno, vowed to support the international organizations in promoting health and wellness worldwide.

Lawyer and philanthropist Loida Nicolas-Lewis recently met with Manila Nature’s officials after learning that Life Oil contains true chlorophyll glowing bright red when it was subjected under UV light. Also present during the meeting was Nelia Fuentebella, executive director of Trees for Life Foundation.

Life Oil was developed from the oil extract of pure Moringa Oliefera or malunggay seeds and leaves. It is rich in organic chlorophyll, essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals.
