Key to Starting the Day Right? Don’t Skip your Breakfast!

 Amid the global health crisis, it is essential to keep a healthy diet. And when it comes to maintaining it, it all boils down to refusing to skip the most important meal of the day—a complete, hearty breakfast. Whether your goal is to manage your weight or simply keep yourself healthy, it pays to make eating breakfast a regular habit.

 


With its numerous benefits, Santé, a leading provider of premier, natural, and organic health and wellness products and services encourage everyone to make breakfast a vital habit, especially amid the pandemic, to kick-start your day, helping you keep your immune systems and overall well-being healthy. 

 

If you are wondering about its other amazing benefits, then check out this list: 

 

You get energized. As its name implies, eating your breakfast helps you to "break" your "fast" after a good night's sleep. When you skip your morning meal, you tell your body to conserve energy since you did not get the nutrients you need. Your metabolism slows down, and your body attempts to store fat. 

 

On the other hand, eating breakfast helps you jumpstart your metabolism and be well on your way to maintaining your health or achieving your health goals.

 

It helps fuel your brain. A healthy breakfast is usually composed of food rich in carbohydrates, a preferred energy source for the brain. By choosing complex carbohydrates for your breakfast, you help improve your memory due to the increase of glucose available to the brain from the bloodstream. Among the best sources of complex carbohydrates include whole oats and cereals. 

 

Your cognitive functions also improve after eating any food like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. So, it pays to take a well-balanced breakfast, mixing your carbohydrates with protein-rich foods like eggs, lean meats, and healthy fats like nuts, among others. 

 

You eat not more than you should. A lot of people skip breakfast to avoid consuming extra calories. But did you know that eating breakfast helps decrease your appetite? 

 

According to a study published in the Journal of Nutrition in 2011, the subjects who ate breakfast regularly reported decreased hunger levels than those who skipped their morning meals. So, by eating high-fiber and nutritious meal early in the morning, you are less likely to be hungry throughout the day. 

 

Another habit that you need to practice is drinking eight glasses of water to keep yourself hydrated or a nutritious supplement packed with vitamins and minerals that your body needs.

 

Santé BarleyTM, for instance, is a pure organic barley grass powdered drink, blended with one of nature's most potent sweeteners, Stevia. This product is best taken before meals. It also readily dissolves in water and contains vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, C, and E (per serving), which can help keep your body healthy and strong.

Cebuana Lhuillier's services can now be done from home

In the past year, we’ve seen how businesses have switched to digital platforms due to the community quarantine. Many have come up with innovative ways to ensure that they are able to provide their basic services to people at home. One of them is Cebuana Lhuillier, which is one of the most accessible pawnshops in the country with 2,500 branches nationwide.

To further make themselves more accessible, they launched Cebuana From Home (CFH), a platform that gives clients 360-degree access to Cebuana Lhuillier’s services—from cash remittance to pawning.

Here’s a quick rundown of CFH and how the platform can help the general public.

Pawn from Home

Cebuana Lhuillier has made their pawning service available online to ensure safer transactions. Pawn-from-Home allows clients to pawn jewelry online—they just need to accomplish an application form on the CFH site (https://www.cebuanafromhome.com). After it’s been reviewed, an appraiser from the nearest Cebuana Lhuillier branch will go to the client’s home to appraise the item, negotiate the value, and release the loan.

Other Pawn-from-Home perks include being able to pay for the pawn renewal service interest fee online and redemption of pawned items through the CFH platform.

 


Hassle-free bills payment and cash remittance

CFH has likewise made it easier to pay bills and send money without leaving the house. The online Bills Payment service provides access to more than 10 billers nationwide. Meanwhile, the remit-from-home feature allows users to send money online through Cebuana Lhuillier agents.

In addition,  one can also avail of Cebuana Lhuillier Insurance Broker’s (CLIB) roster of affordable and comprehensive packages, which include Personal Accident insurance, Medical Expenses insurance, and Doctor’s Consultation insurance.

 


Reliable express delivery

Because of the continued lockdown, delivery services for everyday needs have increased significantly from last year and Cebuana Lhuillier has made it possible for pawned items, to be sent or delivered, as well. With the Cebuana Lhuillier Express Delivery Service, clients from select pilot areas can have jewelry items and cash delivered right to their doorstep. The brand’s dedicated riders will ensure that items are secure and delivered on time. That way, there is no more need to go out and pick up the bought items, ensuring the safety of the whole family.



These Cebuana From Home services can be accessed at bit.ly/CebuanFromHome. A mobile app, as well as access points via Facebook Messenger and SMS, will be available to the public soon.

 

Easy makeup tricks to try with Careline Multi Sticks

Are you one for simple and uncomplicated makeup? Or just starting out and don’t know the proper makeup techniques? Luckily, there is a product that’s user-friendly and don’t require much (or any!) tools for a quick beauty fix. That’s Careline’s Multi Sticks (P196).

Careline’s Multi Sticks


They’re available in a creamy formula that is made to blur, correct, conceal, contour, highlight, and add color. So grab those Multi Sticks and try out these easy makeup tricks:

 

Make makeup last longer. 

Use the Blur Stick as a primer so your makeup stays on longer. Apply them on areas like the T-zone and cheeks to minimize pores and help the products mesh well on the skin.   


Conceal under your eyes with an inverted triangle shape. 

With the Brighten Stick, draw the base of the triangle under your lower lash line and the tip on the apples of the cheek. Gently dab product with your clean finger until blended seamlessly on the skin. This conceals any redness and shadows to create an illusion of brighter under eyes.


Use the Contour Stick handle as a contour guide. 

We all have different face shapes. To determine where you should be placing your contour, roll the Contour Stick handle below your cheekbone. Once you’ve found the correct placement, mark with the contour and blend to smudge out harsh lines.


Shorten your beauty routine with the 3-in-one Color Sticks. 

One of the easiest ways to add a healthy glow to the face is to add color on the eyes, cheeks, and lips. Try it with the Careline Rose Stick or Peach Stick. Make sure to blend well to make it appear more natural.

Careline Multi Sticks are available on Careline’s official page on Shopee (bit.ly/CarelineShopee) and Lazada (bit.ly/CarelineLazada).

B. Braun Avitum brings Christmas smiles to Bahay Ni San Jose orphans

B. Braun Avitum Philippines, the country’s leading renal care provider and dialysis center, fulfilled once again its pledge to bring holiday cheer to the orphaned children of the Bahay Ni San Jose Orphanage and its affiliates, the Bethany House Sto. Niňo Orphanage and the St. Joseph Home for Special Children.

 


Now on its 12th year, the annual B. Braun for Children campaign this time benefited a total 118 children in the care of the orphanage network administered by the Dominican Sisters of St. Joseph. The sisters’ wards have either been neglected, abandoned, or orphaned at a young age. Some have special needs.

 


The charity is run in partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation Philippines, whose goal it is to help grant the wishes of children afflicted with a critical illness.

 

B. Braun raises its funds from the generous participation of its employees, who buy and adopt B. Braun Bears under the B. Braun Bears Program.

 

Apart from gifting hundreds of the specially-produced bears that carry the “B. Braun Cares” and the Make-A-Wish Foundation logo, the B. Braun volunteers brought care packages of food and canned goods, and also participated in some holiday activities, such as dance numbers, with the children.

 

“We would like to thank the B.Braun family, for your unceasing support to the needs of our children. Thank you for sharing your blessings with us especially during this time of COVID19 Pandemic.  A joyful thanksgiving for your benevolence and generosity.  Your visit made a great impact to the children especially your joyful presence,” said Sr. Ella Ann Bernardo, OP of Bahay Ni San Jose.

 

“You made their Christmas especial!  Thank you for extending not just material things but also love and care.  Though there were physical distancing and protocols it doesn’t hinder to celebrate the true essence Christmas. May the Lord reward you hundredfold. Thank you again for your thoughtful gifts to the staff and the Children of Bahay Ni San Jose. God bless you!”

 

In addition the Christmas campaign, part of the funds were allocated to the dialysis treatment of indigent patients treated at B. Braun Dialysis Centers in the Philippines. The subsidies could not have come at a better time, in light of financial difficulties many are facing due to the pandemic.

 

The charities fall under B. Braun Cares, the medical company’s umbrella CSR (corporate social responsibility) program.

 


“Just witnessing the smiles on the children’s faces as they received the B. Braun Bears for Christmas was a touching moment for us,” said B. Braun Avitum Philippines, Inc. Managing Director Eduardo Rodriguez. “Bringing joy into their hearts is certainly one of the best ways to end an eventful year for B. Braun Avitum Philippines.”
