Two of the plentiful vegetable plants and root crops in the Philippines are malunggay
(Moringa oleifera) and cassava (Manihot esculenta). Because of the hot, tropical climate in
which they flourish. These two are well-known for their beneficial effects on health and other
purposes. Since malunggay trees are frequently found in many backyards, they are very
accessible. In many nations, it is also one of the useful tropical trees. The most used portion
of the tree is thought to be its leaves, which are used to make herbal medicines. For the

Malunggay leaves are frequently used in Filipino and Maldivian cuisine, as well as to some
extent in Indian cuisine. In the Philippines, it is used to prepare healthy soups, chicken
dishes, a very popular pasta sauce made with malunggay leaves and extra virgin olive oil,
and polvoron, a milky powdered snack. On the other hand, cassava can be grown in areas
that are prone to drought or in the acidic soils that are common in Asian nations. Like
one of the most significant agricultural crops. Cassava is grown and harvested by
more than 200,000 farmers for use as food, fuel, and a variety of other things.
Cassava chips have an effortless crunch and flavor that don't require a lot of oil,
and texture. It is grated and blended to make kakanin (rice cakes) such bibingka,
suman, and cassava cake. To make nilupak, it is boiled and mashed, then combined
with sweetened milk and butter (mashed cassava). Additionally, neighboring Asian
nations have created their own delicious cuisines using intolerance is on the rise,
increasing the demand for gluten-free products. Anyone who has ever tried to
eliminate wheat and gluten from their diet knows what challenge it can be to find
replacement foods that are satisfying and actually taste good. When made into a

alternative. These gluten-free chips also have 40% less fat than the average potato

The investigation carried out because no healthy snack that has high protein
content is currently available in the market (Cook 1989, Söğüt and Öztürk 2018).
However, there is abundance of fried foods that have high carbohydrate and
saturated fat content, which is detrimental to health. For these reasons, in the
present investigation an attempt was taken to develop a healthy snack that contains
teberinto (Moringa oleifera) that, when combined with the carbohydrates and
cassava root (Manihot esculenta), can be viewed as a food with a high nutritional
value. It can thus help to combat undernourishment, since teberinto can provide a
high protein content, while also helping in the treatment of various diseases, such as
asthma, goiter, diabetes, and anemia, among others Popooland Obembe, 2013;

people are mostly at risk of suffering from nutritional deficiencies (Leone et al, 2015).

contain gluten, an allergenic protein found in wheat, barley, oats and rye. Also known
as tapioca flour, it can be used by gluten intolerant people to replace wheat flour in
crops in the Philippines. Over 200,000 farmers grow cassava and harvest it for food,
fuel, and a variety of other purposes. When turned into chips, cassava has an
effortless crisp and flavor that doesn’t require excessive amounts of oil, making it a
healthier choice when looking to satisfy your craving for chips. Because of cassava’s
natural flavor and texture, it’s often used in Filipino cuisine as an ingredient of
bibingka, suman, and cassava cake. When boiled and mashed, it is mixed with
sweetened milk and butter to make nilupak (mashed cassava). Neiboring Asian
countries have also made their own tasty delicacies out of the humble cassava plant.

and can be difficult to avoid given that it is naturally occurring in many whole grains

are experiencing gluten intolerance is on the rise, increasing the demand for gluten-

B such as folic acid, pyridoxine and nicotinic acid, and vitamins C, D and E (Mbikay,
2012). Each ounce of Malunggay contains seven times the Vitamin C found in
oranges, four times the Vitamin A of carrots, three times the iron of spinach, four
times as much calcium as milk and three times the potassium of bananas.

consumption is necessary to avoid side effects. Some older studies have found that
boiling cassava root retains more nutrients, compared with other cooking methods
like roasting or frying. The exception is vitamin C, which is sensitive to heat and
easily leaches into water. Therefore, it’s best to stick to less processed varieties of
cassava whenever possible and opt for boiled dishes to maximize the nutritional
The processing of “Chips” which primarily involved peeling, cutting and drying
fairly contributed to reduce cassava toxicity (47%). However, these results differed
from those of DuFour who reported cyanide content reduction of up to 80% by sun
drying. According to this author, the maximum degree of cyanide of 75.2% was
observed with bitter white cassava roots where cyanide content was between 500
and 667 ppm. At the same time, Montagnac et al. Obtained detoxification rate of
71.3% of initial value by peeling and grating. The operations of peeling and
parenchyma skin grating were the first substantial step in the process of lowering
cassava toxicity because cyanogen glycosides are distributed in large amount in the
skin. However, it was noted that the cultivars exhibited various profiles of cynogen
elimination after sundrying. This could be due to the cassava sections which did not
have the same size, more especially as it has been reported that when cassava
sections are small and spread out finely for drying, the cyanide escapes more easily
into the air. Sun drying of cut out chunks of parenchyma semmed to be a less
effective means in the release of cyanide because it allow intimate contact between

NUTRITION FACTS
Referred to as the miracle tree, Moringa oleifera has been used for centuries
by people living in Northern India and Southern Asia. Today, Moringa can be
found growing in Latin America and Africa. 1 It takes the Moringa tree about
eight months to break ground, mature and bloom. If you crack a Moringa fruit
open, it looks a little like an opened pea pod. Yet, each part of Moringa plant,
including the root, has either vitamins, minerals or nutrients that support the
