Three ways to a fearless self-expression, brought to you by Olay and Lazada 11.11 Celebration

MANILA, NOVEMBER 2019 – People are naturally drawn to create human connections, and the better we are in self-expression, the stronger the connections we build. Self-expressions, however, may not come instinctively to some of us; 2 out of 3 people have experienced feeling afraid of expressing themselves, or sharing what they truly feel because they feared people would judge them or because they just don’t really know how to accurately express themselves.

Our need for self-expression has allowed us to constantly find creative ways to convey our emotions whether through pictures, hashtags, or emojis. In a recent study showed that 78% have used slang terms while 64% of them actually use emojis and slang words more than 5x a day when they communicate whether verbally or written, whatever the form is, we need to show the world who we are and how we feel.

Olay is one with all the women who want to fearlessly express themselves sans the fear of being judged. Introducing the Olay limited-edition packs that hope to inspire women to be more confident to share what they feel inside to the outside world. These Olay limited-edition packs bring to life the fun and colourful expressions of the Millennials via some of the classic and popular hashtags, slang terms, and emojis of this generation.

Eye Health Services Part of Universal Health Care --- DOH

An estimated 2.2 billion people around the world suffer from vision impairment. Yet the first World Health Report on Vision, recently by the World Health Organization (WHO), reveals that half of them, or about 1.1 billion, do not receive the care they need for conditions like near and far sightedness, glaucoma, and cataracts.

Forum on World Report on Vision 2019 press conference (L-R): Dr. Andreas Mueller, Regional Advisor, World Health Organization (WHO) and Dr. Leo Cubillan, Director, Philippine Eye Research Institute (PERI)

Based on the 2018 Philippine National Blindness Survey and Eye Disease Study conducted by the Philippine Eye Research Institute of the National Institute for Health, vision impairment and blindness rank among the major concerns in the country with a current prevalence rate of 1.98%. This represents 1.11 million Filipinos with cataract, 400,000 with uncorrected error of refraction, almost 300,000 with glaucoma, and 200,000 with maculopathy. Additionally, there are over 4 millionFilipinos living with undiagnosed eye problems that need to be addressed.

Although the prevalence of bilateral blindness due to cataracts and errors of refraction has decreased in the past years, there are still thousands of Filipinos with moderate to severe vision impairment.

“We are fortunate that these diseases can be treated with surgery or prescription eyeglasses. These can also be easily prevented with regular consumption of Vitamin A, injury prevention, and immunization for measles and rubella that cause vision impairment,” Health Secretary Francisco Duque emphasized.

In line with the Universal Health Care (UHC) Law, the Department of Health (DOH) is gearing toward providing comprehensive eye care services, integrating eye care within local health systems, and responding to emerging eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma.

“Through the primary care provider network that will be institutionalized under UHC, we hope to bring easy access and seamless referral to ophthalmic units, comprehensive eye centers, and national ophthalmic specialty centers. These health facilities will be capacitated to deliver the appropriate eye care services,” Duque explained.

The country’s Prevention of Blindness Program is revamped with the issuance of revised policies, aligning the program with UHC and WHO’s goal of universal eye health, while ensuring that it remains responsive to the changing trends in blindness and visual impairment.

“The DOH is fully committed to working with our partners to address blindness and visual impairment in our country. Together, we can achieve our vision of Filipinos enjoying the right to sight, with no one going needlessly blind or visually-impaired,” the Health Chief concluded.

Jolly Mushroom makes daily “ulam” mush-delicious

Mushrooms - one of our favorite ingredients in some of our cooked-meals. Why? They are nutritious, delicious and when using our go-to method, they are simple to cook! Whether they're the star of the dish or just an ingredient, these mushroom recipes will liven up your table.

The country’s leading mushroom brand, Jolly Mushroom, brings new life to moms’ favorite recipes, transforming them into ‘mush-delicious’ home-cooked meals.

Moms can now ease into making more mushroom-based dishes and discover how mushrooms can shake up their culinary repertoire. By simply adding a 1 can (400g) of Jolly Whole Mushroom, moms can make any dish extra special and “mush-masarap” – making them “mush-madiskarte” in the kitchen. 

Marilou Acuña, Fly Ace Corporation group product manager for Jolly Food Line, talks about this interesting kitchen discovery that can elevate any dish. “Jolly Mushroom can add depth and flavor to one’s cooking. It can be a hearty addition to your favorite ‘ulam,’ giving it an exciting twist for the whole family to enjoy.”

Jolly Mushroom is also making the transition easier by sharing new takes on recipes for Filipino classics like pork adobo, chicken afritada, and burger steak.
