Do you love to make  healthy juice at home? Then here's the good news, get Php 5,000.00 off a new Hurom Slow Juicer HA Series if you trade in your old juicer of any brand.

Since I love freezing fruits and then make it into a delicious smoothie, Hurom juicer would be a great tool.

I love listening to stories of giving back and sharing the blessings. Today, a lot of companies adhere to a sense of corporate social responsibility through educational and social programs that benefit a marginalized sector of the population or the society at large.

Father's Day is just a few days away. If you're thinking of best Father's Day gift I suggest giving him the gift of health. There are many healthy products out there from food to lifestyle gadget. We are all aware of many health campaigns informing the importance of intake of at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables for better health.  According to a 13-year study by University College London, a daily average of more than seven plates of fruits and vegetable drastically reduces the risk of all-cause mortality. Fruits and vegetables are not only abundant in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, but in phytochemicals and enzymes as well. These substances have powerful antioxidant effects such as anti-aging, skin care, promoting immunity, among many others.
