Ito ang Dugong Pinoy! 3 Mommies Share How They Keep Their Blood Healthy to Strengthen Their Immunity

2020 has presented numerous challenges to Filipinos, more so, to women. The stress and pressure of pushing forward has left a lot of Filipinas with more on their plates than they could handle. Despite this, women have continued to be the main care providers of their homes, their children, all on top of maintaining a full-time career.

This leaves us wondering, how do Filipinas keep their bodies healthy for their families? We asked three Filipinas how they were able to push through with their daily responsibilities on top of taking good care of their loved ones, and still serve as a greater inspiration for many women.

Besides the usual chores and daily tasks, Mommy Jenica shares that she has been busy with her home-based business making cakes and baked goods. With a business that requires her to exert time and attention to detail being loaded with multiple orders, this leaves her exhausted. "’Yung pagod ka na pero mas napagod ka sa ligpitin. But thankfully I have my husband... to help me.” And yet she continues to struggle keeping her health in check since she took on more responsibilities in their household.

Mommy Anne on the other hand, found herself decluttering as her biggest and most fulfilling challenge on top of taking care of her family. She juggles her night shift full-time job and being a full-time mom during the day. “Sleep was something that was so scarce. Still is. And I’m definitely feeling the adverse impact to my health.”

While for Mommy Ria, due to the educational system shifting to homeschooling, she had to take initiative as her child’s teacher. “Preparing lessons and activities took my time and energy on top of the usual household chores and part time work.”

Like many Filipinas, they have a lot of tasks to do on the daily, which leads them to skip meals and overwork. According to Mommy Anne, the past year has led her to closely monitor her health, which many moms can relate to. With their careers and household responsibilities happening all at the same time, it’s easy to lose track of their immunity. How do they maintain their blood healthy? With the help of Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+).

By eating nutritious meals, practicing regular exercise, getting proper sleep, and taking Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) to help maintain their blood health and keep their immunity at its peak. Through these routines they’re able to keep up with their tight schedules and provide the care that their families need.

 

Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) is an iron supplement with vitamins and minerals that helps to replenish iron stores and increases red blood cell levels in the body. It has ferrous gluconate, a type of iron salt which allows better absorption of iron in the body, Folic acid, and vitamin B12 which are vital for production of red blood cells and during pregnancy. It also contains Vitamin C which helps improve iron absorption, and Copper sulphate and manganese sulphate that helps in the metabolic processes of blood cell production. 

Recommended intake is one to two capsules daily, during or after meals, or as prescribed by your doctor.

As a blood health ally of many Filipinas, Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) helps to treat iron deficiency anemia that can lead to decreased immunity and increased susceptibility to infection. Iron deficiency anemia happens when the blood has a lower amount of red blood cells or hemoglobin than normal. This can cause the body to feel weak, tired, dizzy, look pale, and experience headaches. 

As 2020 nears its end, Filipinos are hopeful for the positive changes that the new year holds especially to their family’s health. Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) supports empowered women to maintain their blood health in check and keep their immunity at its peak so they can continue to provide the care that their family needs, while being able to accomplish their daily tasks.

If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.

Jollibee Opens First Cloud Kitchen in Singapore

Adapting to the needs of its customerzs in the changing business environment, the Jollibee Group opened its first cloud kitchen in Singapore today, August 10, 2020, for its Jollibee brand. Cloud kitchens are unmarked 

food production and delivery hubs without any dine-in facility in discreet and lower rent 

urban locations.

The opening of Jollibee Singapore’s inaugural cloud kitchen comes as demand for its food delivery continues to grow significantly. The business contribution of Jollibee Singapore’s Delivery has more than quadrupled compared to last year – from 10% in 2019 to 45% in 2020.

The Jollibee Tampines Cloud Kitchen employs the same heightened safety standards that can be seen in all Jollibee Singapore outlets. The crew wear masks at all times and follow physical distancing and stringent food safety protocols

“As cloud kitchens roll out, we will be able to reach more consumers and fulfill more 

orders. The Jollibee Group is able to expand more quickly and cost-efficiently through this innovative store model, while maintaining the same safety and quality standards of our food,” said Ernesto Tanmantiong, Chief Executive Officer of the Jollibee Group.

The cloud kitchen in Singapore is the third cloud kitchen to open in the Jollibee Group, 

with more slated to open soon. Cloud kitchens are part of the Jollibee Group’s overall transformation strategy to adapt to new customer habits and meet the continued strong demand for delivery amid the pandemic.

 

Customers may order from the Jollibee Tampines Cloud Kitchen via FoodPanda, GrabFood, and Deliveroo. Delivery riders employ contactless procedures to help ensure food safety.

Jollibee Group opened its very first cloud kitchen in the UAE last March, which continues to outperform targets. In the US, its recently opened cloud kitchen in Chicago’s bustling River North neighborhood was also well-received. Tampines is a residential area in the region of Tanah Merah located in the East Region of Singapore. The Jollibee cloud kitchen in Singapore is open from 10 am to 8 pm.

Crowd Store Finder : A website for locating nearby open stores

Crowd Store Finder

A website launched for locating nearby open stores,
pharmacies during quarantine period 

MARCH 25, 2020 - As most establishments in the Philippines close due to the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) making it both hard and risky to go out to buy goods, a website is launched to help locate those that are still open.

Called ‘Crowd Store Finder’, the website works like Waze or Google Maps that scans through the user’s neighborhood to find stores, banks, pharmacies, and remittance centers that remain operational.

Under government guidelines, only establishments selling basic commodities are allowed to open during the quarantine period. This is to prevent people from staying outdoors that increases their risk of catching COVID-19.

Aside from knowing the open establishments, users can also chat with their neighbors who are currently using the website to ask questions and seek further assistance.

‘Crowd Store Finder’ relies on information shared by volunteers from Good Vibes Digital PH, a group organized by Trinmar Boado, winner of the Clash of Codes competition at Multisys Technologies in 2019.

Boado, who works at the Department of Science and Technology’s Metals Industry Research and Development Center (DOST-MIRDC), said more than 100 volunteers are coordinating safely from their own homes.

“This technology reminds us that sharing of info does not just save the time of other people but also their lives,” shared the IT expert.

To use the website, visit bit.ly/CrowdStoreFinder on any mobile, tablet or computer devices. Follow Crowd Store Finder on Facebook at fb.com/CrowdStoreFinder.

An Evening With 98° - The Philippine Tour 2020

An Evening With 98° 

- The Philippine Tour 2020

Pop/R&B vocal group 98 Degrees have announced that the quartet of Nick and Drew Lachey, Jeff Timmons, and Justin Jeffre, will be bringing their greatest hits to the Philippines dubbed as "An Evening with 98 Degrees" The Philippine Tour 2020."

In contrast to many of their contemporaries, 98 Degrees were founded independently before they signed a recording contract with Motown Records in 1997. Their debut album also arrived that year, featuring their first top twenty single, “Invisible Man.” Touring extensively to build their cachet and eventually migrating to Universal Records, the foursome released an impressive arsenal of successful albums (98 Degrees and Rising, This Christmas, Revelation) and radio hits (“Because of You,” “The Hardest Thing,” “This Gift,” “My Everything,” “Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche),” and “Thank God I Found You,” a collaboration with Mariah Carey and Joe that would propel them to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 2000)

How about you, What is your favorite 98° song???

All told, 98 Degrees’ album sales have exceeded ten million units internationally.

In 2002, the group went on hiatus, during which its members pursued a wide array of solo projects – musical and otherwise. A decade after putting the 98 Degrees banner into semi-retirement, the quartet announced in 2012 they would be recording their fifth studio album and began touring again. 

In February 2020, Big Hot Events Management brings An Evening with 98 Degrees the Philippine Tour and is staged to perform at the following:

February 16, 2020 SMX Convention Center Davao 

February 19, 2020 Waterfront Hotel & Casino Cebu City 

February 25, 2020 SM Mall of Asia Arena

“INEX is short for inexorable which means unstoppable and relentless as we want the name itself to be empowering. We wanted the logo to mean something, so we chose the wolf and the moon. The wolf symbolizes personal power and all that is INEXorable in every one of us; the moon is a symbol of female strength. They say when the moon is full, women are in their highest point energetically. So, we’re hoping that by wearing INEX, women will be able to bring that feeling with them,” – according to Maxine Sebastian. 

Ms Earth 2015 Angela Ong

The event was also graced by notable personalities like Sen. Pia Cayetano, beauty queen-turned image consultant Abbygale Arenas-De Leon, Ms. Earth 2015 Angela Ong, model TV-host Kelly Misa to name a few; and they had the privilege to try and enjoy the newest INEX activewear styles. The seamless structure of INEX ACTIVE sportswear is mainly made up of nylon which is soft as silk. It is also breathable, durable and odor-inhibiting in which it wicks sweat from your skin to fabric’s surface where it can evaporate. They are available in the sweetest pastels to the most energizing neons. INEX ACTIVE is passionate about finding fresh ways for women to express themselves through their activewear and ultimately sharing the joy of an active lifestyle. They are big believers in self-acceptance and self-expression. 

Model TV-host Kelly Misa

This is why they aim to provide a variety of styles that complement every body type and to encourage women expressing themselves and embrace what makes them unique. Another core values INEX ACTIVE want to share to their customers is “It’s Cool 2 Care”. They are committed to slowly but surely shifting to a more sustainable business model starting with their packaging options in which their customer can choose between their reusable pouches and their 100% compostable packaging.

VIVO V17 Pro: Shoot Beyond Limits

VIVO V17 Pro: Shoot Beyond Limits

Shoot beyond limits with Vivo V17 Pro 

dual front camera, exclusive selfie apps

There was a time when taking selfies was as basic as capturing one’s close-up image, often to highlight an appearance or a spectacular scenery in the background. While selfie shooters yearned to capture more elements in their frames, they were limited mostly by the technology of the front-facing cameras at that time.

In recent years, advancements in optics technology and software development have given birth to front-facing cameras that offer better resolution and image quality, as well as AI-enhanced photography apps. These, in turn, have transformed selfie shooting, from a mere trend, to a skill, even an artform.

Today, companies like Vivo, are taking the lead in pioneering technology that enhances the smartphone experience. This includes taking selfie shooting to new and higher levels.

Just a few months after unveiling its V15 Pro with the world’s first 32MP elevating selfie camera and an AI triple rear camera, the leading global technology company has already launched V17 Pro, the second flagship smartphone in its V series of midrange smartphones.

Now, improving from its predecessor, the V17 Pro boasts of another world’s first, an exclusive pair of front cameras—a 32MP main camera with f/2.0 aperture and 8MP 105-degree super-wide-angle camera—which ensures clearer and fuller selfies, in whatever environment.

Much like the V15’s selfie optics, the V17 Pro’s dual front cameras are tucked behind the smartphone’s notch-less Super AMOLED Ultra FullView™ Display, nestled in a wide pop-up mechanism that elevates as quickly as it retracts.

With the premium smartphone’s dual elevating selfie camera, users will never need selfie sticks to capture “groufies” or the splendid panoramic view behind them. All they have to do is access the super-wide-angle camera and “shoot beyond limits”.

For nighttime selfies, the front camera gets ample support from Selfie Softlight that lights up dark images and an exclusive Super Night Selfie mode which captures and combines multiple frames into one image to make one’s face stand out, especially in low-light conditions.

There is also a “Pose Master” feature which suggest several poses to match various photo scenes and backgrounds, to make one’s selfies even more creative.

Aside from its elevating dual selfie camera and AI powered and enhanced selfie apps, the V17 Pro also boasts of AI quad rear cameras—48MP main camera, 8MP super wide-angle, 2MP bokeh, and 2MP super macro camera—which can capture super macro images from a distance of just 4 cm., and super wide clear images, even in dark surroundings.

A selfie (right) using the Vivo V17 Pro’s Super Wide-Angle camera captures a fuller background, compared to a typical selfie.

Personal Testimony on MaquiPlus

Personal Testimony 

on Maqui Plus

The SuperJuice

Bilang isang Blogger at social media influencer, kailangan siguruhin ko na ang mga posts ko, sa mga blogs man o kahit pag post sa Facebook, Instagram, Twitter ay masasabing tama, makatotohanan at may sapat na basehan. Syempre naman, ayokong ipost ang isang bagay kung alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi ko ito personal na nasubukan o sinuman sa aking pamilya o mga kaibigan. Kung hindi, mabibigyan ko lamang ito ng "unfair" o "bias" na review.

Kaya naman ngayon, pag-uusapan natin, ano nga ba itong trending na Beyonde Maqui Plus? Super Juice? Marami na raw bumuti ang kalusugan, napagaling na sakit (kahit hindi naman tlga ito gamot sa partikular na sakit). Hayaan ninyong ishare ko sa inyo.

Ang sabi sa PDR.net (Physicians Desk Reference) https://www.pdr.net/

BENEFITS AND RESEARCH

Maqui berry is an exotic deep purple berry found in Chile, known as Chilean wineberry. It is reported that Maqui berry has an exceptionally high antioxidant capacity. The major antioxidants in Maqui berry are anthocyanins, the group of deep-purple phytonutrients found in blue and purple color fruits. Anthocyanins have the antioxidative property which can fight against free radicals, thus delay the aging of cells due to exposure of free radicals. Research indicates that anthocyanins can reduce risks of aging diseases such as heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and reduce diabetes complications. It also helps improve blood circulation in the eye peripheral capillary and slows down degeneration of eye and vision. Many in vitro & in vivo studies also showed that high anthocyanins content enables Maqui berry to promote insulin functions and regulate blood sugar levels.

Artichoke is widely cultivated in the Mediterranean, Europe, Australia, and North America. It is a medicinal plant with high antioxidants, minerals, and fibers. The important antioxidant in Artichoke is Cynarin which has been proven beneficial for health, in particular, improving liver functions. It enhances the antioxidant capacity of the liver, hence aiding in its detoxification functions.

Goji berry is a small orange-red berry which is well known in traditional Chinese herbal medicine. It is rich in vitamins and antioxidants e.g. Betacarotene, Lycopene, L.barbarum Polysaccharides. Goji berry is widely used as functional food with broad health benefits such as aiding detoxification process in the liver, promoting the liver regeneration, anti-tumor and inhibit cancer cell growth (e.g. colon cancer, prostate cancer, and liver cancer).

A study in 20 adults who smoke or drink alcohol regularly showed that Maqui Plus+ supplementation significantly increased glutathione (GSH), the activities of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), glutathione reductase (GSH-Rd), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and decreased thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) compared with the placebo. Additionally, hepatic and renal functions were not adversely altered in Maqui Plus+ ingested subjects.

May 2018, Narinig ko na ang Maqui Plus, gusto ko itong ipasubok sa aking nanay na isang Senior Citizen kasi naman, may Hypertension, tumataas din ang blood sugar, may naka bara sa ugat ng puso, UTI (Urinary Tract Infection). Isa pa ay naoperahan sya sa kaliwang hita (partial hip replacement). Nagkaroon ng impeksyon ang naoperahang bahagi ng kanyang hita dahilan kung bakit halos mag-dadalawang taon na siyang hindi makalakad ng maayos. Kailangan nya ulit maoperahan ng dalawang beses. Una, para tanggalin ang bakal na unang inilagay sa kanya at lagyan ng antibiotic. Pangalawa, operasyon matapos ang walong linggo para mapalitan ang implant sa loob ng kanyang hita (total hip replacement).

Hindi pa ito ang aming problema, hindi maooperahan ang aking nanay kung hindi maging maayos ang mga laboratory tests bago sumailalim sa operasyon dahil pareho itong "major operation". Lahat ng laboratory tests nya nagsasabi na, may bara sa puso, hypertension, mataas ang blood sugar, may UTI etc, hanggang sa July 19, 2018 ay pumunta ako ng Manila para kunin ang ipinakisuyo ko na mabili sa Bangkok, Thailand. Maqui Plus na iningatan ko hanggang makabalik ako ng Cebu.

Ito ang kanyang Chest PA result noong July 24, 2018

July 20, agad kong ipinainom sa kanya ang dala ko na Maqui Plus - 25ml sa umaga at 25ml din sa gabi.  Matapos ang isang linggo ng pag inom, bumalik kami sa laboratory para magpatest uli. Bumaba ang blood sugar, controlled and blood pressure, nakaramdam ang nanay ko ng ginhawa sa lagi nyang iniinda na masakit sa hita nya dahil sa impeksyon. Itinuloy lang ang pagpapainom sa knya ng Maqui Plus hanggang sa lahat na ng laboratory tests, chest PA, ay naging maayos para sa kanyang CP Clearance (CardioPulmonary clearance)

August 11, 2018 - naiadmit na sa Vicente Sotto Hospital ang nanay ko, at naoperahan noong August 15, walang naging problema pati sa operasyon nya (laking pasalamat nmin sa Diyos at sa Maqui Plus). Nakatulong ang Maqui para maging maayos ang systema sa katawan ng nanay ko.

Sa loob ng 8 hanggang 10 linggo, patuloy ang pag monitor kada makalawang linggo para makita kung nawawala na ang bacteria sa katawan na maari ulit maging dahilan para hindi gumaling ang sugat galing sa operasyon. Patuloy parin ang pag inom ng Maqui Plus at mapapansin sa unti-unti nawawala ang bacteria. Konti nalang at isasalang na para sa pangalawang operasyon.

Nawala na ang mga bacteria at isa na namang kumpletong laboratory tests ang ipinagawa para sa CardioPulmonary Clearance para muli syang maoperahan. October 27 ng lumabas lahat ng resulta at sa pangatlong pagkakataon, makikita na cleared na ang heart sa bara, wala rin bara sa baga, maayos ang blood sugar, may kaunti na lamang na bacteria sa UTI pero ito naman daw ay normal para sa mga Senior Citizen at binigyan na laman sya ng isang gamot na iinumin.  Sa wakas, maooperahan na rin ang nanay ko.

Matapos ang tatlong buwan (October 27, 2018), 
ito na ang kanyang Chest PA result

November 5, 2018 ng muli naiadmit ang nanay ko sa Vicente Hospital at naging maayos pa rin ang lahat, hanggang sa kanina lamang 7am (November 8, 2018) ay isinalang na siya para sa kanyang huling operasyon. Salamat sa Diyos at matapos ang 12 oras sa Operating at Recovery room ay ibinalik na sa kanyang kwarto ang nanay ko.  Alam ko na ito na ang huli nyang operasyon at makakalakad na sya uli matapos lang ang ilang linggo.

Patuloy parin ang pag inom nya ng Maqui Plus para maging mabilis ang recovery at paghilom ng sugat.

Para sa mga nagtatanong, Wine ba ito o Juice? JUICE po ito na nanggaling sa mga prutas. FDA - approved ito at maari na mabili at maipadeliver nationwide.  Gawa ni Unilever, isang brand na subok na at hindi na kailangan na may mapatunayan. May iba pa akong kwentong Maqui. Abangan sa blogs ko.
