My Daily Collagen Holds 5th Edition of Triathlon: Where Stars Are Born!

Looks like it's going back to Subic Bay this year as My Daily Collagen holds their 5th Triathlon entitled "Where Stars are Born". This will be held in March 9th and will be a great platform for up and coming athletes, beginners, elites and it will be participated by celebrities too. 

The finish line will be at the SBMA Boardwalk but will have 3 race categories where participants can register. The Standard Distance that has 1.5 km swim, 40km bike ride, and a 10km run. There is also Sprint Distance that has 750km swim, 20km bike ride and a 5km run. Lastly, the Standard Distance Relay that has 1.5km swim, 40km bike ride and a 10km run. You can also join their community and make that Triathlete champion in you come true!

Stars will come

It will be stellar so expect a few celebrities coming. Lougee of FIT PH is from Imago, comedian Bearwin and Ico Emily (was seated beside me and was excited!), Vanessa Agdon of PNY Tribe, Alou and Aira Lopez,  and our boy Kristoffer Martin (kapuso actor) will be there to join the fun competition. Triathletes from different teams will also be there, so if you are gunning for more experience, this is the time to go. Make sure you are in Subic for the My Daily Collagen Triathlon's 5th year, because you can be that star!

Ms. Kara David is going back to the Triathlon sport, and even if she says she's not training per se, she is running quite often as preparation for the event. She encourages those who are beginning to enjoy the swim, bike and run activities because she only combined what she was doing as a hobby in the past, and realized she is a Triathlete.

For those who would like to join, just go to the My Daily Collagen FB page and follow the registration process there.

VICE GANDA Changes Lifestyle with SANTÉ BARLEY

One of the busiest stars, artists, host, comedian and one who owns her Unkabogable brand in the country is VICE GANDA. Her wit, humor and impact is undeniable, but of course, with her very busy schedule, one would wonder how she does it. Vice is actually human too (albeit looking perfect on screen) and she does feel tired sometimes. She also gets stressed and often doesn't get breakfast before she goes out for work, which only means one thing, she needs HELP when it comes to her health.

Today was a momentous occasion for her career as she gets welcomed by the folks from SANTÉ INTERNATIONAL, a leader in health and wellness products in the country. Trusted by a lot of Filipinos, they've been producing quality barley products that's certified by the folks from BioGro in New Zealand.

The company has always geared towards making lives better, healthier, which is why they've made products with the help of science and nature. If you've heard about Santé Barley, they have managed to produce this with the highest quality in mind and is full of nutrients. They also have Santé Pure Barley Juice, Santé Pure Barley Capsules and the Santé Fusion Coffee. Vice did her homework and researched about the products prior to taking it, she also took time to see the people from Santé International and the other endorsers prior to using the products. Now it has become part of her lifestyle, and she admits it has solved her problems with regards to constipation, something that she's been suffering from for years. She also told the crowd how good it feels to feel clean prior to going out for work, especially when seen in the public and the entertainment industry. It is also part of her advocacy now, more so as she learns how good it is with her lifestyle. Vice has also enjoined her Mom and Sister (a doctor too) which has seen the remarkable change it has done for her.

Here's our coverage of the event on video, sub if you want to see more content like this! :)

 

With her remarkable career that has not just been noticed in the Philippines but the whole Asian region, she wants to also give herself a chance to take care of herself more. Taking Santé Barley everyday and going to her check ups was something she wanted to do so she could continue to live longer and #LiveForMore. Live For More is also a campaign that she belongs to with Santé International. Their CEO Joey Marcelo has noted how Vice has continued to thrive in aspects of her career while continuing to inspire others, a reason why Vice was chosen because it is part of their mission to help even more Filipinos, people, here and abroad!

Foundation Implements Programs: Improves Lives in SOCCSKSARGEN Region

Continuing on their efforts on health and livelihood, BingoPlus Foundation (the social development part of DigiPlus Interactive) is taking their social development work down south, particularly in General Santos City. Choosing this place amongst places that needed help must have been a hard task especially for what they plan on doing.

This means they will be bringing KalusuganPLUS and KabuhayanPLUS which are some of the programs they have successfully implemented in other areas which need access to public health, job opportunities too. After all, they wouldn't be just giving out things, but have them learn to fish correct?

This not only would affect individuals, but more of families and communities. Sanitation facilities were awarded to different barangays like San Isidro, Tinagcan, Ligaya, Bawing and Calumpang. This area alone houses 3000 people, so now they all have access to clean water and proper sanitation which is important in urban living. Some of these towns actually have indigent families from the Badjaos, a sea/shore dwelling tribe in the region. This also coincides with the local government unit's efforts especially in health and sanitation, to prevent folks from getting sick from waterborne diseases which happens a lot in the SOCCSKSARGEN region.   
 
KabuhayanPLUS also gives them proper training so they could achieve skills and use it to earn a living. They even teach people dressmaking and tailoring. They get TESDA certifications which they can use later on if they want to pursue something in the industry. This has also given single mothers/parents opportunities to earn, to put food on their table... and for their families.   

From beyond providing aid, this foundation's programs will not only give them what they need now, but beyond that. It would give them hope, and a future that is stable, healthy, and still living.
