In today's stressful working conditions and competitive working atmosphere, it is common for people to suffer from different ailments ranging from simple to complicated.   And most employers recognize this fact especially if they are aware of the long-term illnesses that are developed from working with them, that is why a medical benefit is one of the things employers dangle to their prospective young employees.  Now, I have nothing against HMOs,  I recognize the necessity of their products.  However, some HMOs really are not reliable.  Marketers aggressively sell them, make untruthful sales pitches just to get you to sign up, after signing you up, problems start to surface. Take Orly (fictitious name) for example, he is a diabetec and his doctor advised him to get an HMO, in anticipation of a long haul.  He was approached aggressively by a 'health counsellor' from a not-so-established HMO  (This HMO is not so popular yet)  this not-...

You are probably wondering what Jar 'D In means, well, welcome to the club.  We know for a fact that Jar 'd In Salad House is the answer to our salad cravings, but just simply what it means?  According to Mr. Paul Gan, who is the young and dynamic proprietor of this salad resto, the name is inspired by the fact that their take out salad is contained in a jar, because it practically looks like a garden-inside-a-jar.  Add to that is the fact that the name Jar 'd In, when spoken in Spanish and Tagalog, is hardin , which means garden.   Well, looking at the array of salad selections, they do remind us of the vibrant colors of gardens in bloom during spring.  colorful and alive.     There are six (6) basic choices that Jar'd In offers, all catering to different tastes and preferences.   But they have recently added a Japanese-inspired salad, which is what you see here.   For only P300, you can enjoy this kani-m...

Sometimes we don't notice some telltale signs that our health is in danger and when we do finally notice, it could be too late already.   I'm sure we have heard a story or two about someone who ignored some clear symptoms of an illness but chose to ignore them, and then it went a downhill path after, tsk... Hence the question, "Is It Time For You to Take a Prebiotic?"  This question is probably very applicable to me.  For years, I have always had a problematic bowel movement; being that I don't have enough fiber in my diet, I have a very irregular bowel schedule.  That's why when I was asked to try Pholigo, a prebiotic drink that assists in the improvement of intestinal micro-ecology, I was just more than excited to try it.    Pholigo has just recently been introduced to the market but there were no caveats in taking it.       The first few days that I took it in powder form (it is in a sachet; it has a te...

Was it only yesterday when I joined the opening of a new branch in Laguna?  Yes, time flies, especially for Boy Kanin , the pioneering Filipino fast food in the country.  Filipino in a sense that the concept came from the ubiquitous "carenderia," that provides affordable, homemade, but delicious food.  Yes, who can't relate to Boy Kanin's menu?  Every Juan certainly can.  Boy Kanin is far from the fancy western fastfood or glamorous restaurant, but Boy Kanin is everybody's cup of tea.  And why not?  The menu is one that we all grew up with and it continuously improves because of the talented and very hands-on CEO .             One of the favorite ones and certainly mine, is this Boy Kanin sisig, a native Kapampangan dish that is made from pig's face and chicken liver, seasoned with kalamansi (Philippine lemon) onions and chili peppers.  To make it more special, you can break an egg before mixing...

I used to be one of the throngs of women who would painstakingly spend hours just to achieve well-defined brows.   The effort that goes into creating perfect brows is such that when we finally have done them perfectly, we feel very proud.  And we become prouder even if our friends compliment us about it.  A pair of great eyebrows, alluring lips,  pinkish cheeks, subtly-shaded eyes, make a good made up face and who doesn't want it?  After four scores and more, my struggle with creating the perfect eyebrows whenever I apply make up is now a thing of the past because after my microshading and strokes under the cosmetic tattoo specialist of The Brow Studio , I could wake up looking like Julia Barretto and when I look into the mirror, I feel 5 years younger.    Like you, I am curious as to what this technology is:  How is it done and is it painful?  Well, microblading is just one of the many forms of semi-permanent tattoo.  I...
