Wazzup Pilipinas!

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, encourages 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.

Sex adventures for single women could be a problem

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Sex is excitingly dangerous (adventure) if taken outside the context of marriage. Sodomy (same-sex) is the leading transmission means for HIV-AIDS in the world by 70% to 90%, followed by fornication (sex before marriage) and adulterous sexual intercourse. Dangerous sex activities are not a necessity to human survival or to greater happiness. The converse is instead true.

It's either we keep tolerating these 'normalized' practices and we'd end up in a degenerate society....or begin tolerating an antiquated mentality and we'll never see some progress in society.

Progress is fine, but we could end up like ancient Rome if y'all keep normalizing everything.

It's not even antiquated. We believe in change, but if we're talking about fundamentally changing here, it's a slow burn process.

If you keep changing and changing it will remain incosistent until society falls apart.

We need something to hold onto. Delaying gratification leads to anything than failure.

It's not always warm and fuzzies and "do what you want and makes you happy" There are some things beyond sex, money and power. The one that actually lasts for a lifetime, and it requires a lot.

We COULD be better, as a society we could make it better by overcoming our failure and short comings as an individual. B that we're changing our state collectively.

Society doesnt see it both ways (equal perception of man and woman). This issue is only juicy if it is about a woman knowing what she wants and going after it. You dont see reactions (like the guy’s above) or articles about men and their whorehouses now do we? or articles about men (or boys) looking for hookups? and if promiscuity is the problem of ancient Rome or Pompeii; then why hasnt the world burnt up in flames yet? Prostitution is the oldest trade in the book. Men have been patronizing it since time immemorial.

Bottom line, if a woman is single, responsible in her ‘adventures’, and if that is what she wants; thats fine. If she feels like it's taking over her life, then it becomes a problem. But that is her problem. not everyone elses. 

If you're single, go ahead and enjoy the heck out if it. Things to be cautious about:

- a lot of men lie about their relationship status (kunwari single)

- please have yourself checked on a quarterly basis since you're very active. Free testing in Love Yourself Inc clinics.

- be careful with Covid since it's still pandemic

- birth control (condoms is really important but you can add pills or whatnot since condoms is not 100% effective)

- don't be shy in asking health and sexual activities/history of your partners. (Kahit wag mo na tandaan pangalan, importante safe. Haha. Charot.)

- if first time meeting someone lalo na gabi, inform someone. Take pic of the car or license plate if you must. Para if mawala ka at least may suspect agad.

PHLPost landscapes historic Manila Central Post Office Building

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) landscapes the historic Manila Central Post Office Building, transforming its public space into a vibrant, eco-friendly and sustainable government center.

PHLPost said that the greening of the Post Office building helps connect its employees and the public with nature and raises environmental consciousness and appreciation.

The presence of green spaces can enhance the health and wellbeing of people working in cities.

It somehow relieves anxiety, level of stress and improves creativity and productivity.

The Manila Central Post Office Building has been declared an “Important Cultural Property” by the National Museum. It is still considered the grandest building and most prominent landmark and tourist attraction in the City of Manila.

This neo-classical building was inaugurated in 1931, known then as the “Bureau of Posts” which was designed by the famous Filipino architect Juan Arellano. The Post Office Building was built as a modern colonial architecture, an example of a perfect neo-classical monument.

Aside from the Manila Central Post Office Building, Arellano also designed the Manila Metropolitan Theater and the old legislative building (National Museum).

Urban green spaces can also help reduce pollution and improve air quality.
