Oakland Entrepreneur Aims to Help West African Women With Superfood

Gram for gram — it has twice the protein found in yogurt and four times the amount of calcium in milk. It’s a new superfood you’ve probably never heard of – moringa. Moringa is at the center of a new food start up called Kuli Kuli aimed at promoting nutrition. But what’s good for your health is also good for a community half a world away helping women in Africa to feed their families. Vicky Nguyen interviews Kuli Kuli founders Lisa Curtis and Valerie Popelka who are based out of Oakland. This interview first aired August 9, 2014.
