An Afternoon of Essential Oils

By | Health and Fitness | No Comments

An afternoon of Essential Oils (15)  Last year my sister in law Tina and this lady Techi introduced me to the world of essential oils and now I’m obsessed.

Previous entry:  Young Living Essential Oils November 25, 2015

We met again and it’s always nice to listen to Techi who is the essential oils guru. It all started with a friend who had cancer and shared with her the benefit she got from taking essential oils and since she needed to address some health concerns for her and her family. After trying essential oils she has been continually sharing its benefits with her friends and her friends have been sharing it with friends so it reached me 🙂   Contact Techi for more information – Techi Allegre +63 917 890 4500 or email o_h_h@hotmail.comAn afternoon of Essential Oils (13) An afternoon of Essential Oils (1) An afternoon of Essential Oils (5)  Fun afternoon with these ladies at @sparkdiscoverycenter learning about Essential oils! An afternoon of Essential Oils (14) An afternoon of Essential Oils (12) An afternoon of Essential Oils (4) An afternoon of Essential Oils (7) An afternoon of Essential Oils (9) The reason I’m obsessed with Essential oilsessential oils versus medicines

Food Intolerance Test

By | Health and Fitness | No Comments

I went to Hi Precision Diagnostics to have the Food Intolerance test. I have recently been having stomach pains every night and I’m hoping this will help me find out what foods are causing it. They just get 20 ml of blood and it will test for 200+ foods. The results will come out in 10 days and a chart will show what is ok for you, what to stop and what to eat in moderation.  I’m so excited to find out the results!! Hoping this will be the answer to my prayers!   Thank you Melissa Ongsue and Hi Precision Diagnostics @hiprecisiondiagnostics

The Dangers of Sitting for Too Long

By | Beauty, Health and Fitness | No Comments

I got so scared when I read these two articles!! My work now entails a lot of work on the computer so I do a lot of sitting when I am not at an event or out.  And true enough I got Cervical Spondylyosis because of sitting too long and looking down at my laptop and cellphone for many hours in a day!  I promised I would share my experience because I would not want anyone to go through this problem.  The spine is so delicate and we should avoid getting any problems in the spine!  My doctor has advised me to change my lifestyle and stand up every 30 minutes to walk around and drink water.   Sitting for too long article(1)

Sharing here some tips or some recommended ways to avoid putting your spine at risk

The right sitting posture is important too.  Who ever told us this??  Standing is the best for the spine Dangers of sittingDangers of sitting_Even my friend, Ina, read the same article and so she did this.  When doing this, you need to make sure you are wearing rubber shoes or the right shoes so you also do not get problems with your posture or back as wellThe Dangers of Sitting for Too Long

This is also a great idea 🙂 Exercising while working!

 156988-4_steelcase_originalWhen sitting, a proper office chair is also important – it cannot be just any chair.  You can strain your muscles if not using the proper office chair and that is what happened to me.  I was using a foldable chair for my work in the house which is also one of the reasons for my cervical spondylosis.  For those who work a lot on a desk, It would be wise to spend for a proper chair to avoid future health concerns.

Advice from the doctor:  Take Business Class! Imagine sleeping with your head position looking down for hours?

 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Every year I celebrate this by promoting pink advocacies and supporting the different causes to prevent breast cancer which is very rampant all over the world. This year I have very exciting news for everyone! Two months ago, A good friend of mine has just opened the first Early detection of breast and cervical cancer clinic in the Philippines at LivLite Center. Newton Mapua and his Canadian business partner Martin Kozak of Nuvotek are the distributors of this technology which is a joint Russian-Canadian collaboration. I went to visit the clinic and had myself screened. meik newton mapua and martin kozak nuvotek

It is the most advanced technology in early detection of breast and cervical cancer. There are many benefits of this new technology:

1.) Usually a woman has a mammogram at the age of 40, but with this new technology, any young woman can have herself screened. I encourage all the young women out there to have yourselves screened. There is no harm to check your breasts now. And what better time to screen than at an early age so that if there are high risks of cancer in the woman’s breast of having breast cancer, the concerns can be addressed already at an early age or stage. Adjustments in lifestyle can be done, maybe medication. The most important thing is to detect it early and not wait till you are 40 years old and maybe if there is cancer it might be at a late stage already and it will be too late.
2.) Aside from being able to do it at any age, you can do it at any stage of your menstrual cycle.
3.) It’s even safe for women with implants or pacemakers.
4.) The procedure is painless. There is a bit of pressure when Meik is placed on top of the breast, but it is not painful and does not press as hard as a mammogram.
5.) They use a small machine called MEIK. It is so small that it is portable and you can bring it anywhere. If you want to have your whole company screened, the machine can be brought to the office. You can even have a health and wellness party with your girlfriends
6.) There is no radiation. Doing a mammogram is like having one thousand X-rays so you can imagine how strong the radiation is.
7.) The procedure is quick and easy. You can even get your results right after the procedure and an OB Gynecologist, Dr. Iya, will interpret the results for you so you can understand your breasts and understand what was seen in the screening. It is important that an appointment is made if you want the same day results with the doctor, there will be an additional cost but it is worth itDra Iya nuvotek meik breast cancer detection Every tissue in the body has its own unique electrical signal. By mapping out the organ, MEIK can generate a digital image of that organ, in this case the breast which is a complex organ. We are fortunate that cancer stands out like a beacon having a higher electical signature than normal cells 10 to 60x higher. And that’s what the MEIK detects. What makes MEIK very accurate is that it is not totally dependent on the visual skill of the interpreter to have to identify the cancer, it is computer aided analysis where the computer assists the interpreter and also offers quantitative analysis for cross checking purposes. The technology is very sophisticated as there are many other functions of MEIK such as microclassifications of the findings, ability to classify if the subject is in the high risk group of developing breast cancer, ability of classifying a cancer as benign or malignant etc. But, as with other modalities, there are possibilities of errors too, but the advantage of MEIK is that since there is no pain or radiation, it can be repeated many times or used for monitoring. Do know that though is that MEIK is designed as a mass screening device to complement the standard radiation based mammography because that is still the gold standard. When MEIK detects a finding, the subject is then referred to the standard mammograohy. MEIK is targeting the healthy population to catch cancer very early on to allow the subject more options on treatment and a better chance to fight the cancer and win the battle.

pH Care Naturals

By | Health and Fitness | No Comments

Everyone’s going all-natural these days, whether we’re talking about organic food, health supplements from plant and animal extracts, and even personal care and beauty products. And, why not? It’s important to make sure that what we ingest or apply onto our skin is something that won’t harm us.

The folks behind best-selling feminine wash pH Care have an intimate understanding of the importance of using natural ingredients for your most sensitive part, your bikini area. This is why they’ve come up with their all-new pH Care Naturals line in two variants: pH Care Naturals Papaya and pH Care Naturals Guava.

pH Care Naturals Papaya There are a lot of factors that can influence a woman’s confidence when it comes to donning that swimsuit, including puson problems and cleavage consciousness. But one other common insecurity many women have is dark skin in and around the bikini area, and this is something they can feel self-conscious about even in the comfort and privacy of their own rooms and bathrooms. And while there are many products for whitening dark skin in other parts of the body, most of these aren’t safe or suited for use in intimate areas. Now, however, pH Care has a new whitening feminine wash that uses natural ingredients, so you keep the sensitive area fresh and fair. The new pH Care Naturals Papaya cleanses the bikini area while the papaya extract, added to its formulation, aids in skin-whitening, so you get fairer skin in as early as 14 days.

pHCare Papaya_50mL

pH Care Naturals Guava Even if you’re not overly concerned with dark skin, you may still want a feminine wash made from natural ingredients that will still keep your intimate area fresh and clean. After all, in a hot country like ours, sweat can lead to discomfort, even body odor, and infection—and it’s worse when it involves the bikini area! But no need to worry; pH Care Naturals Guava has been specially infused with guava leaf extract, which is well-known for its cleansing and anti-bacterial properties over the years. So if you’re 1 in 3 Filipinas constantly seeking for natural solutions “down there,” then give pH Care Naturals a try. It will naturally deodorize the area so you can feel confident regardless of outfit, activity, or even weather.

pHCare Guava_50ml

The NEW! pH Care Naturals variants are available at leading supermarkets, drugstores, and beauty stores. For more information, check out facebook.com/pHCare.
