1st Maxicare Veggie Fest 2019 Highlights Living and Eating Healthy



"Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food" 
~Hippocrates


Unhealthy diet is associated with many health issues. Being overweight as well as having a sedentary lifestyle predisposes us to certain types of diseases and it can negatively impact our daily living.



Good thing that Maxicare Healthcare has come up with an idea to promote and raise awareness on eating healthy through the recent MAXICARE VEGGIE FEST held last March 15 at Legaspi Active Park in Makati City.

Enjoying my time at park while learning about plant-based food and products at the recent #MaxicareVeggieFest2019


The Veggie Fest 2019 is the first public expo that Maxicare hosted with the intention of promoting health and wellness. Headed by Maxicare Health Corp. CEO and president Mr. Sean Argos, this event focused on living healthy through plant-based products. 

Well attended by the health conscious people, booths from various exhibitors presented products that are totally vegan that range from food items, cooked dishes, natural supplements, skincare and fresh produce.

The recent Maxicare Veggie Fest also presented valuable talks from the experts and advocates of healthy lifestyle. Topics ranging from aging gracefully, lifestyle changes were discussed in an in-depth approach which also included a cooking demo.

 
Yummy baked goodies ALL VEGAN from Jerties Kitchen- I personally love the chocolate cake.



Vegan coffee anyone? HEAL T-Foods is one of the exhibitors and the gentleman manning their booth is a good friend of mine and a chef who specializes in healthy cooking Merck “Punk” Alvarez. They also offer vegan products.



Topics covered at the Veggie Fest 2019 were “Aging Gracefully” by May Manahan-Lagdameo and Dr. Willie Lagdameo of Health & Wellness Coaches Philippines, Inc., “Holistic Healing for Wholesome Living” presented by yoga master Donna Francisco, “Local Native Plant-Based Eating with Mesa ni Misis” by Juana Manahan-Yupangco, “Lifestyle Medicine” by Dr. Johann Manez, “Skin Food—Understanding the Right Food for Beautiful Skin by Dr. Kathy Amurao-Herrera and “Guilt Free and Gluten Free Dessert” by Jertie Abergas of Jerties Kitchen who was also an exhibitor (I swear their vegan chocolate cake is sinfully addicting but guilt free).

Maxicare Philippines offers health care protection but with their desire to help Filipinos achieve a healthy lifestyle they are now compelled to be proactive through various campaigns and initiatives. So better watch out for upcoming Maxicare events and expo.

 


It’s a good idea to follow MAXICARE on Facebook and get valuable tips on healthy lifestyle and learn more about their products and services.




Thank you so much MAXICARE HEALTHCARE Corporation for providing me insights on eating and living healthier. Can’t wait for your next expo.

Transforming Lives: The Impact of SM Group's KSK Program on Filipino Farmers

  Farming futures Jayson and Juanito proudly showcase a selection of produce at the SM City Clark’s Weekend Market. While modern agricultural techniques boost yields for some, there remains a number of Filipino farmers who struggle to keep pace. These experienced hands find themselves falling behind in a market demanding higher production, clinging to familiar yet often inefficient methods passed down through generations. One farmer from Pampanga, Jayson Garcia, sought to disrupt this prevailing narrative in his family. He knew that he had to chart a new course forward for his farm and innovate to remain competitive within the rapidly evolving landscape of modern agriculture. “Noon, mahirap ang magtanim,” he recalled their life before joining SM Foundation’s Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan. “Para bang tsambahan, basta pag itinanim mo ‘yan, hintayin mo na lang mamunga. Mas mahirap pa lalo kapag nagkaroon ng kalamidad,” he added.  SM Foundation’s training program focused on high-value crop cultiv
