Our friend, inventor and Mapecon founder Gonzalo “Jun” Catan swears that putting malunggay leaves in your congee or lugaw is very good. In fac that is what he usually takes for breakfast. He is 75 and is very healthy. He attributes his good health to his eating healthy food, including congee with malunggay. He recommends every home to plant at least one malunggay tree in their backyard where they can harvest their own supply of fresh leaves.
  
The malunggay tree can be pruned to a reachable height so that it is convenient to harvest the leaves. Cutting the main trunk to 1.5 meters above the ground could induce more branching for more leaves.
