100% Organic Supplements by PascualLab's WellGreens

Our lifestyle is certainly different and these days, getting the right amount of nutrition is a little difficult especially if we're busy and not plan meals. We don't really think about what we take in and for that, we take supplements.

Our friends from PascualLab (who's celebrating their 75th year by the way) recently launched WellGreens, a new premium and organic line of products aimed to be your partner in good health. It is in capsule form made with different ingredients like Sinta (which helps lower blood sugar) Mangosteen+Malunggay (for weight management, lactation and better immune system), Lagundi+Cuban Oregano (for moderate cough), Turmeric (to reduce inflammation, lessen muscle sores and pain from osteoarthritis), Ginger (To ease migraine, dysmenorrhea/heavy menstrual bleeding), and Ampalaya (to lessen blood sugar levels and risks of cardiovascular disease). These are made by Leonie Agri Corp which is a PascualLab subsidiary. It is also made with 100% organic ingredients which are grown in the largest organic farms in the country. Leonie Agri Corp has been certified organic by USDA and EU Organic. Locally, they have been certified by the Department of Agriculture (for good agricultural practice), the FDA (for good manufacturing practice) and the Islamic Dawah Council for Halal which ensures you're getting a product with high quality standards. 

 

 

WellGreens is also being endorsed by well known actress Alice Dixson whom we all know takes her healthy lifestyle seriously. She says "If you've followed my career, I've been in commercials before I landed roles on TV and movies. I have always given importance in working out and eating healthy. I'm a mother now and I still make good choices when it comes to my health, WellGreens came to me at the right time!"

It’s not rocket science to say that every day is a struggle. With stress, with problems, we need the right amount of nutrition every day. Aside from food, there are countless supplements that are out there which may help counter aging, muscle degeneration, unhealthy bones among other things.

Yes they have products that repair DNA/RNA components, non drug, food grade

This one promises that your sleep will be better, your energy will be there and they say it’s very natural. This company called Forever Healthy Products just launched IMU REGEN. Dubbed as Europe’s best kept secret, this gets you fix that starts with your DNA and RNA. It will support healthy tissue generation, support the body’s

Dr. Susan Barlin says “This is second to none because of its effects. This is how fast it works. Everyday we are bombarded with free radicals and our skin cells, everything inside dies and we need to replenish them. These are nucleotides, we need to make sure we get it repaired and replenished and this is why we also have (a secret endorser) here. He needs these in his work, I am 60 years old but my energy and stamina is like a 20 year old. I am so happy for us because together our goal is to bring Filipinos to the world. To educate an awareness for the young ones, not when they are all sick and old already. We believe in supplementation.”

Leon Katz the President of Forever Healthy “Our company is a game changer, and so are you. With God’s help we’ll break many records, congratulations to you! We don’t have specific success stories because Doctors themselves who have tried the product, are now our customers. You may check out IMUREGEN.info.com for more about this.”

Honestly this tastes like a sports drink, or a not so sweet Berocca so it is good. They also have 11,000 studies for these in clinics here and abroad. It only is available right now at Forever Healthy Products representatives and partners as part of their MLM efforts. You may also hit them up if you want to be a member, I think you know how that goes.

HADSAP Brings Grassroots Nutrition Education

We all know how important nutrition is in the Philippines. With the plight of even more Filipinos getting even more worse, poverty stricken areas would all be nests for lack of food, hunger and malnutrition in different levels. This has been the same for the middle class who has been heavily hit by the rising costs of food, inflation, and believe it or not, even taxes hits where it hurts the most, in your own home. When the Health and Dietary Supplements Association of the Philippines heard about this, they figured to take action where it is needed so even if they were all been doing this since 2007, they pointed all their efforts this year to the grassroots level which they call "Lodi Ang Healthy". 

They are doing this in cooperation with the Food and Nutrition Research Institute and the Rotary Club West. These are a line of seminars designed to benefit young mothers and kids so they would understand things about maternal health and reduce child mortality. 

After learning  a lot in these activities, women and children were also given supplements from member companies. I'd be worried if they didn't get the proper nutrition they would need to survive this worrisome economic climate because of the hardships of putting food on the table. Kudos to the participants and I wish them well after learning a lot in these seminars.

Stay healthy folks!

The Launch of Nutrition Hub AskND.ph

Where do I start? Hmmm...

I went to an evening expecting  a simple launch of a website but it turns out that it's a whole discussion between Dietitians, Nutritionists, Doctors, Health Workers, Food Suppliers and experts. Imagine the medical jargon being thrown from left to right, forward and backward, and my nose was bleeding in the middle of everything. Before it became the Red Sea, it was explained to us that AskND.ph is for health professionals and common folk that would want to address nutrition issues. The problem nowadays is that people tend to ask friends and family instead of true nutritionists and dietitians. There's a huge danger there because 1.) They might not know what they're doing and 2.) You might end up endangering yourself. I don't have to even tell you why because you probably know why. But let me also add something to your brain's library two terms, FOOD ALLERGY and FOOD INTOLERANCE.

Dr. Nigel Abraham

Dr. Virgith B. Buena

Dr. Rolando Balburias

These distinguished men and women told us about it. For those who already know their allergies, the usual suspects are those you love so dearly. Pollen from those lovely flowers, seafood from the Philippines, the lovely Milk from your friendly cow, Chicken from your favorite restaurant, and dust from EDSA. You all have at one way or another had to give up things because you're allergic to it. What I didn't know at first is that Allergy and Intolerance are two different things. Food intolerance means you have a specific set of food to actually avoid for you to have better health. Now it's a little arduous to actually do it and that would entail testing almost every single food item that you see in the grocery or market. Can you imagine how huge that is? Well, thank the lords of Cambridge, they've made it a little easy.

This kit called Food Detective is the most advanced scientific way to find out what food items you are intolerant with. These are just one of the tests they have at hospitals and clinics of Nutritionists, Dietitians and Doctors now. After numerous attempts to simplify it, they've managed to put it into these slots so you know what you're intolerant with. Do you sometimes feel bloated when you eat things? I was surprised because they told me it's a sign that the body was reacting to what we eat and that is some sort of in a state of being swollen. Sometimes you also gain a lot of weight because of it, everything becomes complicated because you don't know what you're intolerant with. This kit and the result was explained to me.

Then I found out that I'm intolerant to Wheat (which means bread yes :( ), Corn (of which I love so much for snacks), Yeast (of which means anything that is fermented, like Soy Sauce, Kimchi :( ), and get this, I am intolerant too to COW's Milk. It was shocking, as I've literally been eating this my whole life. Was I sad? A little, but now that I know, it's a good thing. I can slowly take it out of my diet and lifestyle. For me, that's better than not knowing at all. 

If you want help, if you want a personally designed diet, you should try it out at the AskND.ph Facebook page. They've been doing this for years and they have experts (real certified ones) answering questions there. Your body is NOT a joke, you should seriously only get help from those who have studied and spent years learning about it. Other than that, eating right is not enough and you have to have physical activity to reach your target health. Do it right by consulting with experts over at AskND.ph.

Give Dad The Gift of Health with Nestlé

Still trying to find the perfect gift for Dad? Well I just received a bag of goodies from Nestlé Health Science group and it's got all these lovely products in it.

Dad would love a dose of Calcium from the Bear Brand Adult Plus, to give him strength in his bones even as he gets older. Age is not an excuse not to drink milk you know!

For me, I don't really have breakfast (yes I know it's unhealthy) but if I do I need to have Milo everyday so I'd still get energy. I'd also like to have a bowl of Fitnesse as breakfast cereals have really high fiber content. I'd have Milo with that too because I'm not that fond with milk.

If it's noontime, I just don't want to be sitting in front of the tv without a drink because even if it's officially the end of summer, it's still so darn hot outside. My Nestea keeps me hydrated, a welcome treat when I'm so thirsty!

At night, I'd have my cup of Nescafe Classic paired with Nestlé Coffee Mate. One teaspoon, hot water and about two teaspoons of creamer is my formula for a good cup. No sugar, I don't need a lot of that in my life. The smooth creamy and slightly bitter brew just hits the spot.

Now if you forgot to give Dad a gift, go to the groceries tomorrow and grabe these treats for him. At least he'll know you are thinking about him on this special day! Thanks Nestlé Health Science group! :)

Dingdong Dantes and his Dad for Ensure

I'm sure you've watched it several times on TV where the good looking Dingdong Dantes takes hold of his Father's bike and restored it. His Father though, even when extremely happy about that, felt a little helpless as he thinks he couldn't do the things he did when he was much younger. That picture just tells so much about Filipinos nowadays that when they reach the number 50, they think their poor physical condition could hamper fulfilling their dreams. It is known that in order to be in tip top shape, you need nutrition for strength and their own families to support them in order to achieve their goals. The question is, how do they achieve this goal? 

"Loss of strength is a sign of deterioration of health, when the body experiences loss of strength. 8 out 10 complain if they get out of hospitals when they go back home. The loss if lean body mass can be attributed to consuming only 60 percent or less of their nutritional requirements for a day, it makes them at risk for nutritional gaps. They should always ask their doctors to solve this." says Dr. Dimaano from Abbott Nutrition Philippines.

Dingdong says "I had real life experience in helping my father achieve his dreams. I knew back then, I had to do something when my Dad said he's too old to relive his passion for riding bikes. I had to refurbish my Dad's bike and remind him to rebuild energy + fitness, as his son I wanted to have the duty to remind him of his nutrition so he could live his life to the fullest."

Abbot Ensure has a balanced nutrient formula - made of three major nutrients plus 28 vitamins and minerals. It also has high protein content, prebiotics, good for those with lactose intolerance. It's good to have something help the elderly regain or maintain their strength, and drinking it twice a day for 8 weeks can get their muscle strength.
