Multi-awarded actress Bea Alonzo proudly shares how she keeps her tip-top health and shape in her strongest years with Birch Tree Adult Boost, the flagship milk brand of Century Pacific Food Inc., and the trusted adult milk brand in the Philippines.

Bea Alonzo as the newest ambassador of Birch Tree Adult Boost.

With a busy and active lifestyle that includes indulging in sports and frequent travels, Bea recognizes the importance of having nutritional support to keep up with everything she enjoys.

“Staying strong and healthy isn’t just a goal; it is a way of life. Drinking the right milk gives me the nutrients that I need to stay strong, healthy, and at my best every day. Gladly, there is Birch Tree Adult Boost milk that can give me the right nutrition,” said Bea Alonzo.

Milk plays an important role at every stage of life as the body evolves over time. Children need it for growth and development, teens rely on it for bone health and cognition, while adults need it for bone strength and immunity. Adults, specifically, require extra vitamins and nutrients for sustenance, which is why Birch Tree Adult Boost is specially formulated to provide that support.

Birch Tree Adult Boost has the Active Tri-Boost formula that supports overall wellness in adults by providing support nutrients such as Vitamin C, Vitamin D, B-vitamins, Iron, and Zinc. These nutrients help to strengthen immunity, sustain energy, and heighten brain function. Perfect for adults who want to remain healthy and energetic just like Bea.

Bea Alonzo enjoyed a skiing adventure in her Andorra trip, showcasing her passion for active living.

“As I turn 38 this October, I become even more mindful of my health and my body, and I like challenging myself with different ways to maintain good health,” Bea shared. “I like doing workouts like push-ups, squats, planks, and other sporty activities, then I balance it with proper nutrition. Birch Tree Adult Boost gives me that extra support so I can keep up with my busy lifestyle,” she added.

As an award-winning actress and entrepreneur, Bea has built a strong reputation both in entertainment and in business. With her passion for travel and discovering new experiences, she proves that life gets better as we reach our peak years.

“We wanted to highlight how milk isn’t just for kids, it’s just as important for adults who want to stay strong, energized, and overall healthy. That’s why we partnered with Bea Alonzo for Birch Tree Adult Boost. She embodies the idea that age is not a limit, you can be at your best at every stage of your life,” shared Greg Banzon, Executive Vice President & Chief Operations Officer of Century Pacific Food, Inc.

Tweet

The top adult plain vitamin C brand¹ pays it forward on its 50th

To celebrate 50 years of supporting Filipinos’ varying Vitamin C needs and to thank its customers for their continued support, the top Vitamin C brand (adult, plain category) Ascorbic acid (Poten-Cee) Vitamin C,¹ launches its milestone campaign, Fifty, Fortified, and Forging Forward. 

 

Poten-Cee Is Fifty 

Poten-Cee, proudly from PascualLab, one of the top pharmaceutical companies in the Philippines,¹ traces its humble beginnings to the post-war era, supporting the Vitamin C needs of Filipinos. Today, it has evolved into one of the top Vitamin C brands offering variants that help fulfill different needs and that support different lifestyles. 

From Poten-Cee's early ventures to its latest products, the brand consistently showcases a commitment to innovation. Poten-Cee Sugar-Coated which was launched in 1974, was designed with a shell coating to mask the sour taste of Ascorbic acid. This coating with its candy-like taste and appearance, also made the tablet smoother and easier to swallow. 

 

Through the years, Poten-Cee has also formulated adult to pedia variants to suit Filipinos’ diverse needs and preferences: 

• Ascorbic acid as Sodium Ascorbate (Poten-Cee NA)² and Poten-Cee Plus for adults and children who prefer a vitamin C in non-acidic format³  

• Ascorbic acid (Poten-Cee Chewable), a convenient format for those who are always on the go 

• Ascorbic acid (Poten-Cee Forte) 1000 mg with 8-hour time release for those who prefer a higher dose of Vitamin C        

• Ascorbic acid (Poten-Cee Sugar-Free) for those watching their blood sugar.   

Poten-Cee's Beauty of Immunity 

In 2016, Poten-Cee introduced the tagline “The Beauty of Immunity.”  Aside from Vitamin C helping to fortify immunity which is vital to good health, it is also essential in collagen production to help support healthy skin.  Still in line with this message, PascualLab’s flagship brand launched Poten-Cee + C in 2022.  Poten-Cee + C is a food supplement which combines Vitamin C and Hydrolyzed Collagen.  

 

Poten-Cee Is Fortified 

 

Among Poten-Cee's newer variants are Poten-Cee + Zn (Ascorbic acid + Zinc) and  Poten-Cee + Zn Advance (Ascorbic acid + Zinc + Cholecalciferol) which were both launched in 2021. Poten-Cee + ZN combines Vitamin C that supports immunity and Zinc that helps protect cells from viral infections, among other benefits.  Meanwhile Poten-Cee Zn Advance combines active ingredients that play critical roles in immune function, inflammatory response, and collagen synthesis.^4-9 

Poten-Cee Is Forging Forward 

This year, as part of the brand’s forging forward, Poten-Cee unveiled a new offering of Poten-Cee + C. Poten-Cee + C Marine Collagen has Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C in non-acidic format)³ and Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen sourced from fish. ¹⁰ With this introduction, Poten-Cee + C now has options that offer consumers type 1 collagen sourced from fish (marine collagen) and type 2 collagen, from bovine or animal sources (original variant). 

Poten-Cee is Paying Forward 

And to thank Filipino families for all the years of support, Poten-Cee is also paying it forward.  Through the years, Poten-Cee has been making sizeable donations to sectors in need including survivors of the recent Typhoon Carina.

As Poten-Cee celebrates 50 years of providing consumers with trusted Vitamin C products, it wishes to extend its deepest gratitude for the unwavering support given by Filipinos. This has been the cornerstone of its success, inspiring the brand to continually innovate and improve, more so in the years to come. 

 

Poten-Cee is available in all leading drugstores and supermarkets nationwide and at PascualLab’s official TikTok, Shopee, & Lazada stores. Follow us on PotenCee_PH, FB & IG.

The OPPO Reno11 Series 5G debuts as the latest Reno series offering from OPPO, inspired by nature as reflected in the phone’s design with the hues of Pearl White and Wave Green. A captivating behind-the-scenes sneak peek at the journey of Bea and Nadine into nature, which highlighted the OPPO Reno11's Telephoto Camera, is revealed in the TVC-making film video.

Rooted in the elegance of pearl white and the vibrancy of wave green, the phone’s design philosophy sets the stage for a visual masterpiece to capture the essence of the natural world. As seen in the video, scenes outdoors are presented, echoing the OPPO Reno11 Series 5G's deliberate integration of natural textures into its design. “Holding the Reno11 Pro 5G while walking on the beach, it felt like I was an explorer uncovering the secrets of pearl white.” Nadine excitedly shares.

The telephoto lens emerges as a signature weapon, capturing a moment within a moment. Bea emphasizes how the lens enhances the vividness of every performance, particularly in capturing interactions with the green scenery of nature. She also shared how the phone captured every subtle movement without disrupting her natural state, allowing the photographer to frame every smile and gaze, revealing her raw, standout emotion.

For Nadine, the OPPO Reno11 Series 5G is a game-changer, blending harmoniously with its surroundings, creating a magical and unforgettable feeling. To beautifully sum it up, it all goes back to embodying the Reno11 Series 5G's design philosophy – to stand out and make every portrait an extraordinary expression of an individual’s most natural and authentic self captured in the frame.

It’s all in the journey: Finding love with John Lloyd & Bea’s One True Pair The Movie, a film from Jollibee Studios

Tweet

Many people dream of falling in love with the right person at the right time and making it last forever, but many are left disappointed yet continue searching while some give up and find other kinds of love that work for them.

Love might be a powerful and universal feeling yet it’s anything but simple--that is at the heart of the newest Jollibee Studios film, One True Pair The Movie, starring the country’s most iconic love team, John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo.

One True Pair. Bea Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz make a comeback film with Jollibee Studios.

The film tells the story of Ian and Gela, two famous celebrities who were once a popular on-screen tandem for many rom-com movies over the years. Ian, dubbed the “Prince of Philippine Cinema,” took a short break from showbiz while Gela continued being a top celebrity.

After his break, Ian and Gela reunite once again as they work on a project together. In their musings and conversations, we see how they are as real people, how they’ve matured individually over time, and their enduring friendship and love for each other.

The film is directed by JP Habac and is a deeply insightful film that shows that as people grow, so does the love they have for other people.

The country’s One True Pair gives a heart-wrenching, yet insightful, exchange of lines in a short film with Jollibee Studios.

The country’s one true pair

After the release of the film on Dec. 1 on the Jollibee Studios YouTube channel, One True Pair the Movie has amassed over 4 million views with many commenting that the film felt unscripted and surfaced the reality of what it meant to love a person and how the definition of love changes as life goes on.

The film also led the YouTube channel to grow from 652,000 subscribers before the release of the film to 704,000 subscribers to date.

“Parang ‘di scripted, parang totoo, parang lahat galing sa puso, parang nanonood ka ng totoong buhay ng dalawang artista na minsan sumugal pero natakot sa nararamdaman. Thank you Jollibee nakaka-touch kasi ito talaga ang reality,” said Crizell Susana on YouTube.

The film also highlighted why John Lloyd and Bea have remained the most iconic love team in the Philippine entertainment industry for more than a decade.

“I feel that the storyline was inspired by them…I love how John Lloyd and Bea had inputted their emotions into this,” said Cheenee in a comment on the film. “I realized how humans are so complex to the point that love cannot be explained in just one tense. There are indeed different types of love,” she added.

Well loved by Filipinos since the 2000s, Bea and John Lloyd bring waves of joy and kilig with Jollibee Studios’ One True Pair The Movie.

The journey of finding the love that lasts

Within the 35-minute film, One True Pair The Movie showed that there are different kinds of love and that the journey of finding the One is also a journey of finding oneself.

The story of Gela and Ian showed that throughout their lives, people may find several “loves” from the first love who taught them how to love–the fairytale, the ideal but one often does not last. The love that changed them and taught them how to love themselves. This is the love that’s painful but one that they’ll look back and be thankful for because it taught them how to choose themselves and walk away. The love that lasts–it's the one that stays even after the romance is gone--that inexplicable connection that remains even if the kilig is gone. This is the love that was built on all the lessons in a person’s journey. This is the love that has grown through joy and adversity, and is made even more special for it. And finally, the love that goes beyond romance–this is the love that has always been there while they are busy loving the first three kinds and all other kinds of love they wanted to be in.

The beauty of taking that journey in finding the love that lasts is that it is as much a journey of yourself--accepting yourself and loving yourself and how you appreciate the people that came and went in your life and how those experiences made you grow into the person you are now.

Find your own kind of love in Jollibee’s One True Pair the Movie exclusively on Jollibee Studios and find more lessons in love and life by subscribing to the Jollibee Studios YouTube channel.

 

Jollibee Studios proves that true love is one that transcends romance in new John Lloyd Cruz-Bea Alonzo #JollibeeOneTruePairMovie

Tweet

John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo's much-awaited on-screen reunion is here, and thanks to Jollibee!

Many people are looking for the one and a love that lasts and while many have been fortunate to find it and keep it, many are still searching for that person, or what the one means to them. In Jollibee Studios’ newest 30-minute film, it discusses what makes love that lasts in a poignant and heart-tugging story that brings together the country’s most iconic love team, John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo.

The pair’s much-awaited on-screen reunion definitely brought a lot of excitement among long-time fans. The anticipation and joy from the public was truly felt back in October when leaked photos from their shoot came out. When it was revealed that it was for a Jollibee project, this excited people further, as Jollibee has been known to produce memorable short films that never fails to bring joy and touch one’s heart.

One True Pair The Movie, starring John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo,

is now streaming in the Jollibee Studios YouTube channel

“At Jollibee, we have told so many stories about love and its different kinds. Now, we are looking at a love that goes beyond romance--a love that’s unflinching and a love that lasts,” said Francis E. Flores, Jollibee Foods Corporation Philippines Country/Regional Marketing Head and Jollibee Philippines Marketing Head. “With One True Pair The Movie, we wanted to deliver that powerful message of how some pairs are perfect because their love is one that goes beyond romance. And what better way to do that than having John Lloyd and Bea star in the film. In fact, we wanted this film to be very meaningful, not just to the fans but to John Lloyd and Bea as well. So, during the development process, we made sure that they could share their personal insights and creative input about the story.”

The celebrity pair themselves have also expressed how pleased they are to be working together again after such a long time, especially when they found out that the project with Jollibee won’t just be a regular fast-food commercial, the usual romcoms, or follow the typical Pinoy drama plot.

In one of John Lloyd’s social media posts he said that, “Excited ako ibahagi sainyo ang #JollibeeOneTruePairMovie dahil isa to sa mga projects kung san nabigyan rin ako ng pagkakataon to share my thoughts and ideas”.

“It didn’t even feel like a shoot; it felt like I was hanging out with an old friend, so easy and comforting. Ganun siguro talaga kapag matagal mo nang nakasama, kahit lumipas pa ang panahon, may mga bagay talagang masarap balikan,” Bea Alonzo also said in her Instagram page.

Also true to Jollibee-produced films, One True Pair The Movie is directed by multi-awarded director, JP Habac. “I was very happy to take on this Jollibee project about a different kind of love. When we talk about love, it’s always about either finding the right person and spending the rest of their lives with them. But in reality, love is such a complicated emotion with so many facets.

Like the Chickenjoy with Jolly Spaghetti, the popular love team is undoubtedly a perfect pair

If there’s one thing that’s true about Filipinos, it’s that they love pairings. They get a lot of their feels and kilig from love teams, especially when the chemistry is amazing and undeniable. For this reason, fans all over the country have been clamoring for a comeback project that features the legendary on-screen love team - John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo, ever since the former announced his comeback in showbiz. This much awaited reunion is now a reality thanks to Jollibee. 

It’s definitely big news that the #1 fast-food company in the country has finally brought together John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo in their latest kilig-inducing ad.

As an iconic pairing in the Philippine entertainment industry, John Lloyd and Bea best represent two of Jollibee’s best-selling products—the Chickenjoy with Jolly Spaghetti. Similar to how Filipinos enjoy the crispylicious and juicylicious Chickenjoy along with the walang-katulad na meatiest, cheesiest, sweet-sarap Jolly Spaghetti, it’s tough to imagine John Lloyd without Bea, and vice versa, because they complement each other perfectly—and nothing is better than perfect.

“I couldn’t say no to this project. Jollibee’s Chickenjoy with Jolly Spaghetti are classics for me, and Bea brings out some of my best work. The choice was clear,” says John Lloyd.

“Who wouldn’t accept the offer to be the face of a beloved Filipino brand and food, and to work with your best partner at the same time? It’s an immediate yes for me,” says Bea.

“There was no pairing more perfect than John Lloyd and Bea for the Chickenjoy with Jolly Spaghetti. They are both iconic pairings, and we knew we had to go big for this. We know the fans are absolutely going to love it,” says Mari Aldecoa, Assistant Vice Pres for Bestsellers and Ready-To-Cook Category
