PHILIPPINES, October 27, 2016  – Herbalife Nutrition, a global nutrition company, has released the findings from its Asia Pacific  Millennials At Work  Survey 1 , which revealed that Filipino millennials are adapting a healthy, active lifestyle, however, most believe their current workplace environment prevents them from doing so. Millennials, or people born in between 1980 and 2000, are opting for a workplace that will encourage them to stay active, if only this will be embedded in every company culture.   About 83 percent or eight (8) in 10 millennials have agreed that they would like their company workplace to adopt a healthy, active lifestyle. With the millennial generation expected to make up 50 percent of the global workforce by 2020, ensuring the wellbeing of millennials will be important to improving workplace productivity.  “There are about 35 million millennials now in the Philippines, which is about one-third of the country’s entire population. Five years from now

When receiving a package, you should always make sure that the package is in good condition before signing the delivery receipt. Signing the receipt upon acceptance of the package is a binding contract that means the package you got was not pilfered or tampered in any way. However, this was not the case with Bakura Pagaduan, a recipient of a delivery by LBC Express. He received a package that was supposed to contain shoes and other items. Upon delivery, Pagaduan signed the delivery receipt without incident and some time later came to the local LBC branch to complain that his package was tampered. The local LBC branch people then offered him to sign a complaint form so that the incident can be documented and properly investigated. However, Pagaduan declined to file a formal complaint which could have investigated the matter more fully. Eventually, Pagaduan demanded to be compensated for his alleged lost item. LBC Express agreed, and did not delay compliance. Because

We have been hearing about 'Glutathione' for over three decades already, but some of us are still curious about what it is.  Well, Glutathione is a substance produced by the liver and is used in many processes in the body including tissue-building and repair, creation of chemicals and proteins needed by the body and for the immune system.   However, as we reach the age of 30 the level of Glutathione produced by the body decreases, so we become prone to illnesses, sicknesses and diseases.   To make our immune system stronger, we need to restore our Glutathione levels in order to help us more immune to invading viruses, bacteria and parasites. Aside from this, restoring and maintaining the appropriate level of Glutathione in our body would put on hold the ageing process of our physical body.  Taking the more improved and more fortified Glutathione capsule of Lucida DS would be a great way to restore and maintain the Glutathione level in our body.   This fortified product of L

So you have not decided yet who to vote for on May 9? If not, why don’t you do some soul-searching to help you decide on who to vote for in order to get the leaders that you really want and need?  If you ask me, I only have one choice and selection to make.  My vote goes to the winning team of Mar and Leni, or Ro-Ro, for Roxas-Robredo.  My vote goes to the team whose integrity I believe in.  When I think of the future of the Philippines, I think of it not only in terms of industrial, economic and financial growth.  Most importantly, I would like to aim for quality thinking and shift in mentality.  Thinking that we need a strongman to help us rise or make our lives better is the thinking of people who don’t have confidence in themselves and in their capacity to work and think for their own upliftment.   In order to do this, a leader must also have this kind of mentality and not feed on the people’s desperation.  This leader must inspire people to aim for higher and noble idea

May 9 is another historical day as the nation will elect another president who will lead the country for the next 6 years.  As a voter, ask yourself what do you want your leader to do for the country and for the people.  What kind of leader do you want?   What projects or programs do you want him to focus on?   Will he be the kind of leader that will inspire the people to have initiative in helping themselves by being a good example himself?  Is he a leader that you can be proud of when he represents the country at international conventions or conferences?   Is he a leader that is approachable?   And lastly, does he have integrity and good character.    As a voter, I want my president to be compassionate but strict at the same time.  I prefer a president who stands by his word and for each principle that he believes in.   I want a president who plans well for the general well-being of the people, the economy and all sectors of society.    A president who has a solid background

Leni Robredo’s name made a mark in my consciousness when her late husband died in a plane crash on that fateful day, August 18, 2012.  Her husband, Jesse Robredo, was then Secretary of the Department of Interion and Local Government and there were rumors he was groomed to run for a national post,  supposedly, in this elections.  From  then on, I have felt only pure admiration for Leni Robredo.     It must have been truly agonizing to have to await for news about her husband.  I can just imagine the questions racing in her mind during that moment.  Did he survive; did he suffer much?  Losing even one’s pet is painful enough, losing a loved one must be over a million times painful,  but through it all, she was a picture of calmness and strength.   During those times, the image of Cory Aquino flashed back, I did not have any idea that like Cory, Leni would be dragged into the political quaqmire too.   I know running as vice president is the ultimate sacrifice that she wil

When I heard the news that Kuya Germs passed away very early morning, I suddenly felt a part of my youth also was gone too.  You see, I grew up watching most, if not all, of his shows in GMA.  I remember feeling amazed at the outrageous headdresses which are part of the costumes of his dancers then.  The production numbers of his shows were always awesome.  The costumes were very colorful and the dancers moved in unison; they seem to move in perfect rhythm with each other and their movements smooth and fluid.  As a young impressionable child, German Moreno's shows became my benchmark when it comes to performance level and quality dancing.  I actually miss watching his shows.  Whenever I would watch his production numbers, I feel like I was actually present in the studio and watching it all happening before me, and not just watching it on TV.  Crazy right?  I always looked forward to Sundays then, because of that and of course, because after that was the tearjerker "Loving
