Gary Valenciano Endorses DiabetaMil

Spent the afternoon at luxurious Victorinos in 11th Jamboree in QC. We were there to welcome DiabetaMil's newest brand ambassador Mr. Gary Valenciano. As we all know, if there's someone suffering from this ailment that has survived and enjoyed life throughout the years, Gary is somehow the epitomy of that. He's a great spirited dancer, he sings wonderfully anytime and he had brought diabetes care in the forefront that he always mentions these in interviews. 

"We believe that through the products that we have, we would make Filipino diabetic lives better. People with it can enjoy normal lives and we can have a healthy and beautiful life. We need to ensure diabetamil is available nationwide." 

This advertisement is a little different because we need to show that we can live a normal life. So we got my son to direct it for us, and he's here. 

Gary began telling us his story, he says "I was 14 years old and an athlete at La Salle but I was losing weight even if I ate a lot. I had my sugar level too high and my body was eating fat, my Mom saw that I was not gaining weight. First test I had 312 and had a normal diet. My sugar level went up as high as 722 and I confirmed that I had type 1 diabetes. The lifespan is actually 30 years when you get diagnosed, but I'm way over that. That's how it started. I always had to watch what I eat and put into my body. There are times when I met death a couple of times when my sugar levels go down and nobody could wake me up. It's a serious disease to have, much like cancer and heart attack. I have not endorsed anything that won't be able to use in the long run and Diabetamil is finally something good. Some say they are fat free, sugar free but tastes so bad. They need to have something in their diet with this in the mix, I do a lot of things and it's good that I can take it with any meal. Diabetes regardless of anything that comes with it isn't one thing, you need medication, lifestyle, excercise and diet. Diabetamil contains all the good things. Don't let diabetes control your life, you have to go out there and enjoy it! It's been a challenge these 37 years and I've had ups and downs, but I'm living it and doctors in the US ought to give me an award for living beyond the years that books say."

Diabetamil is okay to take by type 1 and 2 diabetes patients, you may need to consult your doctor for proper meal planning. It costs Php 220 and Php 485 for the bigger one and. It doesn't taste different as the cookie and drink and is available in Vanilla, Chocolate and Mochachino at all leading supermarkets and drugstores nationwide!

Nino and Alonzo Mulach for McDonalds this Fathers Day

We visited Mc Donalds Eugenio Lopez branch in front of ABSCBN earlier. Saw the set of Minions Happy Meal toys in the special kiosk they made for this release. Apparently they're opening reservations for the cute little creatures from June 15 to 20. 

It costs Php 949 for the whole set of 10 and they highly suggest you order it via the branch you frequent to. The happy meal stubs that come with it should only be claimed on the store where you bought it from. It's a nice thing to do so you don't have to go to other places, like in my case it's either here or the Tomas Morato Roces branch. 

They come in ten different designs and I saw Alonzo Mulach playing with them earlier. What's neat is that each piece does a different thing, very unique actually. Almost the same size as we've seen last year so paying for it in a package is really convenient if you're that much of a collector.

The happy meal claim stubs are in different meal choices too, 10 in fact. You should probably order one now if you haven't yet because chances are, it might get sold out on the last day. Filipinos always do that LOL.

Oh and of course, I went to the Mc Donalds event earlier to see and talk with Niño Mulach and his cute little son Alonzo. I guess he's really following his dad's footsteps as he's a child star already. The crowd went a little crazy seeing him inside the store but he was his cute little self saying hi to everyone just like Dad used to be when he was the wonder boy of Philippine cinema.

It's touching and the official advertisement is already available online, but it'll be out on public TV's this Fathers Day. Make sure you bring your Dad to McDonald's this weekend and treat him to lunch or dinner. Then ask him to buy you those cute little toys you've always wanted, a fair trade LOL!

I'll post more photos of Nino and Alonzo Mulach maybe tomorrow, for the meantime please tell your friends about Minions and the new touching Fathers Day commercial. It's really good!

The Plight of a Mall Security Guard

It was Independence day when I was writing this piece. I thought about the men and women out there who are still working even if it's a holiday. Small things, may likely feel nothing to us. I feel though that we should be thanking these people who still take the time to serve us in times when they could have been just resting at home. Have you ever said "thanks" to an SM Mall security guard?

These men and women put themselves out there, they get paid salaries just like the rest of us but think about it... they're actually protecting us from bad elements while inside the mall. The amount of money they actually get in one day cost around 20 thousand Philippine pesos to 2 thousand dollars yet they go the mile and return it to their respectable owners. They barely are even seen by the public and can always take it for themselves, but they chose to give it back to their proper owners or surrender it to mall administration instead. Isn't that a selfless act? Shouldn't that be something to be proud of? Even if sometimes they get smirks and bad comments from mall goers they still do it out of their own will. They're not just serving the mall, they're practically serving you too! Their integrity, is just insurmountable. You would be proud about if you knew about the amount of mobile phones, gadgets and things they find and return in a single day. They just want to make sure the next time you shop, you won't find gang members, pickpockets, shoplifters and bad men inside it as well.

SM prides itself in making security a top priority. They also have made arrangements recently to honor some of them in ceremonies at SM Skydome a few weeks ago. Arrests, apprehensions were also possible because of them so it was a nice thing they were honoring these men for doing a good job, for keeping us safe during mall hours. In behalf of everyone, I'd like to say thank you to Mr. Jayred C. Martin, Mr. Norberto S. Bautista, Jr., Mr. Angelito P. Fuentes, Mr. Dominador O. Apawan, Mr. Lourince Z. Olog, Mr. Dexter P. Gadot, Mr. Melvin O. Muramatsu, Mr. Rowell R. Condolon, Mr. Oliver M. Maramag and Mr. Ramon P. De Leon for going beyond their duty and helped SM, the people and ordinary Juan's community safe all these years. They also have in their own way helped different communities that they visit through SM Cares.

The next time you go to a mall, say "Thank You" to show how much you appreciate their work the next time they need to check your things going inside the mall. They deserve every bit of that and it would be good to make mall security officers feel how thankful you are as they keep the place safe no matter when, where and whatever it takes. Their lives are on the line most of the time, so isn't that too small of a favor? We at least owe them that.

Lose Your Love Handles at Contours Body Design Studio

This is my first time to actually be in Contours Body Design Studio in Megamall and also our first time to see Dr. Claudine Roura. Dr. Roura has been in the business for quite some time now and she's making skin services available for Filipinos closer by putting up branches of Contours Body Design Studio all throughout the metro. Her expertise is Vaser High Definition Liposculpture and she is the only one currently certified to do the procedure in the country. Vaser Hi Def Lipo is what people in the US and Europe do to actually have a more defined and sculptured physique. If you're working out too much and have everything fixed except for the tummy area and those love handles, or still can't see those abs, then this is the perfect procedure for you. You can ask their main clinic about it and check their numbers here.

Dr. Roura showed me some before and after photos of past patients and it was shocking to say the least. I've heard some of them have undergone the procedure and now are professional models. I guess it's an investment that would be superbly perfect for men who want to show washboard abs as it looks perfectly defined once it heals.

Speaking of lipo, there's another treatment that they have in the clinic that can shed off weight without undergoing the knife. It's called Laserfit.

 This contraption is actually a cold laser. What it actually does is make the fat melt in the areas that it's originally in. After fat reduction, you need to burn this out from your system. As explained to us, it's done by another bodily process that involves the liver - as it clears toxins/fat from the body.

 Contours Advanced Face and Body Sculpting Institute is also doing a holistic approach to keeping the weight off so aside from Laserfit, they've got Accutrim (that uses this machine above) which is a non drug based appetite suppressant. It's much like a no needle acupuncture procedure that will curb your hunger and hasten to produce more endorphins (the happy hormone). The procedure will take 4 weeks and the effects will last another 4 to 6 weeks after the procedure. Your Laserfit doesn't come with a diet so when you also take Accutrim, you'll feel less hungry and feel the need to gain back those unwanted fat, or eat much. It's a lifestyle change and this one makes you take out excessive food intake from the equation. Isn't this part nice?

Their branches also have small workout rooms where you can actually do some moves right after you've undergone the procedure. Now, I haven't tried these yet but I am planning to do Laserfit and Accutrim in the next few weeks. If you see me get a little thin, please let me know and I'll tell you if it was because of Contours. I can't wait to see the results!
