MORINGA POWDER (Zogale)
Premium Moringa powder is made from carefully selected dried and pulverized leaves of the Moringa oleifera tree, known locally in Nigeria as "zogale" (Hausa) or "ewe igbale" (Yoruba). This vibrant green superfood has a mild, earthy, slightly bitter taste and is one of the most nutrient-dense plants native to Africa. Traditionally used in Nigerian soups (especially efo riro and ogbono) and as a nutritional supplement, moringa is gaining global recognition as a "miracle tree" for its exceptional vitamin, mineral, and protein content.

Storage Instructions
Shelf Life: 18-24 months from manufacture date when properly stored
Store in airtight containers (glass or food-grade plastic) in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture
Cold storage at ~4°C (39°F) helps preserve protein, fiber, and beta-carotene levels over several months
Avoid storing in refrigerator or freezer if not vacuum-sealed—condensation upon removal can cause clumping and accelerated spoilage
Use moisture absorbers to combat humidity
Check for vibrant green color, mild earthy aroma, and smooth texture; discard if clumped, discolored, or moldy.
