Change the Narrative with Moringa Oleifera

Welcome to Moringa Partners - www.moringapartners.com.

Today, Newon, our Scientific Director will shed some light on the different aspects of hunger many are experiencing globally; focusing on hidden hunger and the micro-nutrient deficiencies that occur

Hunger is a term which has three meanings (Oxford English Dictionary 1971)

• the uneasy or painful sensation caused by want of food; craving appetite. Also the exhausted condition caused by want of food
• the want or scarcity of food in a country
• a strong desire or craving

World hunger refers to the second definition, aggregated to the world level. The related technical term (in this case operationalized in medicine) is malnutrition.¹

Malnutrition is a general term that indicates a lack of some or all nutritional elements necessary for human health
