TENA Adult Diapers Partners with Healthway Medical Philippines to Support the Elderly Care Through the Aging Years

How time flies so fast. It is still clear to me how I remember my dear lola Nating. Yes, she is my grandmother and great-grandmother of my kids. I remember when I was a kid my lola always visit us here in Manila just to spent a few months with us.

Many years had past and I felt the need to see her. Even my mom  misses her a lot. But the problem is she's now too old to travel. My Tita Helen went back to Bacolod to look after her. How I wish Bacolod is just a few minutes away so I could hug and kiss her. 

She is not her active self any more. The elderly people are the ones directly affected of aging. This is just the right time that they felt that they are loved and being taken cared of. Good thing my Tita would always call and update us about her and how she's feeling. 

My tita told us that she's having a hard doing her ordinary bathroom activities (peeing and etc.). Good thing there's TENA . TENA is an adult Diaper that offers a full range of range of adult diapers with unique features that caters to the elder's delicate needs and their various incontinence needs. 


What's great with TENA is that it has partnered with my favorite "out-patient mall-based medical clinic", HEALTHWAY MEDICAL. Healthway Medical is the widest when it comes to branches with numerous specialty doctors housed under one roof. 

I told my aunt that I will be sending money transfer for my Lola's immediate needs. I also told her to buy TENA ADULT DIAPERS for her so that she could also avail Healthway Medical great offers for the Elderly.

With my grandmother using TENA ADULT DIAPERS, I'm assured that she's safe from bacteria because Tena Adult Diapers has an anti-bacterial core which prevent the growth of harmful bacteria and eliminates odors to provide freshness and comfort. It also has an " Aloe Vera" top sheet with "INSTANT DRYNESS" which allows faster absorption and drier surface so that skin is left. Her comfort is my utmost concern so all I want for her the best.

On its 3rd year of healthy alliance between TENA adult diapers and Healthway Medical, it will continue to give more perks gearing to every elder's wellness and health. How?

For every single purchase of specially marked TENA ADULT DIAPERS comes with a FREE HEALTHWAY WELLNESS CARD.

When you present this card to any HEALTHWAY MEDICAL preferred branch , the elderlies can enjoy discounts on selected dental procedures, dentures, laboratory imaging and diagnostic services, free catract screening, and consultation with a Primary Care Physician. 








Just what my lola needs-a check up from time to time to monitor her over all health. I was happy and relieved to know that there's a HEALTHWAY MEDICAL near my grandmother's house. Healthway Medical Bacolod is located at Teleperformance Bacolod satelite office: Bacolod Convention Plaza
Magsaysay Avenue Bacolod City Negros Occidental Philippines.


Wait there's more, not only my gets perks from the free Healthway Medical Wellness card, family members also (just like my tita)  will also get special discounts on selected dental prcedures, intense diamond peel, laborartory imaging, diagnostics and consultations.

For more questions about this unique offering from Tena Adult Diapers and Healthway Medical , you may log on at www.tena.ph and www.healthway.com or SCA HYGIENE PRODUCTS CORP. Philippines at 02-556-24-05.





Promo runs from February 15, 2013 to February 14, 2014. Redemption of Wellness card is valid until April 15, 2014 only. Per DTI-NCR Permit No. 0713, Series of 2013.

To my Lola, one of my prayers is that you live long, stay strong and don't worry - me and my kids will visit you so that they can also hug and kiss you the way we always do when I was young.

Sante Barley : An Amazing Superfood

I have an aging Dad and I wanted him to live longer to see his grandsons grow up. But as normal people we cannot avoid various illnesses as we age. As for  my dad at his age of 72, he has been drinking a lot of maintenance meds. Most of the time he drinks 3-4 different medication for his blood pressure. Most of these meds are chemical base so this is the reason why I decided to let him try drinking Barley.




One of the more evident uses of barley (Hordeum vulgare), which belongs to the grass family that produces an edible whole grain, was for beer production and dates back to circa 3500–3100 BC in Iran, while the Greeks utilized its properties for cereal and porridge preparation.

HEALTHCheQ: When Health Needs No Compromise


With a busy mom like me with tons of things in mind at all times, things such health matters had been unknowingly been taken aback. I always prioritize my family’s health before mine. But with all the diseases and illnesses coming up, it has made me think twice.

I am a mom in my early thirties and have two boys in grade school. It made me think that I also have to think about my health condition and lifestyle so that I may live long enough to see my boys grow up.
With Healthway Medical newest offering to its ever expanding number of satisfies clients, I may now lessen my worries when it comes to my health.



As it approaches it’s 15th year in the business and being the most preferred mall-based clinic making health care accessible, easy and convenient to all regardless of social demographic, from A-D, launched a more holistic approach to healthcare by offering its latest and premium brand of  executive check-up package called HealthCheQ.
 Nurture Spa Village Tagaytay, where the HealthcheQ was launched; was also one of the partner Hotels/Spas for HealthcheQ Clients.

To whom does it cater?

It is designed for those people who put premium on time and health. HEALTHCheQ offers complete diagnostics which also includes laboratory tests, imaging studies, specialized examinations, as well as comprehensive evaluation.


Every year we were advised to have our Executive Check-up, most especially for those people who are working in the corporate world. But some people, sad to say, often disregard their very own health not knowing the risks they are up to in the future.

What’s nice about HEALTHCheQ is that all the laboratories or exams one has to undergo will be done within half a day in any of Healthway’s facilities. No more worrying that you will have to wait for days just to know the results. With TIME as being precious to every client, I’m sure every client will be happy to know that availing of HEALTHCheQ will just take him half of his day for all the laboratories.  With the use of the most advanced technologies in healthcare, the exclusive package guarantees results turnover within 24 hours upon completion of tests plus a Specialist Consult for evaluation.

SCOPE of HEALTHCheQ:

More perks are added because aside from the wellness gifts the HEALTHCheQ package includes one Wellness Visa that entitles the bearer to a free consultation with one of Healthway’s Primary care Physician and a Php200 gift certificate for AB Pharma products for the client’s initial medication needs. 


This perks are Healthway Medical’s way of ensuring that each client is ensured of over-all well-being.
Honestly, it’s the first time I’ve heard of this kind of perks for someone who will get an Executive Check-Up. I will not be surprise if a lot of clients will avail of HEALTHCheQ. In time, I will ask hubby to avail of HEALTHCheQ, so that I will be included in the perks too! Awesome right?!?

They also have their Customer Care Hotline # 751-4929 or visit their website at www.healthway.com.ph and like their page at www.Facebook.com/HealthwayPhilipines .

There is one clear message here that Healthway Medical wants to convey, that our Health should always be prioritized, just like what Healthway Medical VP For Sales and Marketing Carmi De leon,” HEALTHCheQ allows you to take charge of your Health, as a CEO would to his/her company. Be the CEO of your Health with HEALTCheQ”.

If ever I'll get my own HealthCheQ, I'll choose Nurture Spa Village Spa Tagaytay as my chosen destination after I finish all the administered tests needed with my Executive check-up. Why because for me Nurture Spa Village is a a very relaxing place wherein I can forget my worries for the meantime and leave it all in the metro. Another thing is, they have numerous relaxing amenities that I can choose from. They even have Centennial huts,pool and a greener ambiance + fresh air! Just perfect for someone who wants to be rejuvenated!

Here are some of the photos but if you want to see more of Nurture Spa Village, you may also check out my fanpage here!

 Huts where one can read a good book and just smell the fresh air while on the right is swing bed where one can just lounge all day!

Good and Positive things happen when you're in top shape! But let's face it, with everything happening so fast, just so like everything is "digital", we rarely forget to do a few things. few things that if may neglect oftentimes may endanger our overall well-being.

Good thing one of the Top brands when it comes to offering health food and supplements is now open for everyone to use. And not only that, the best news is ...they're a bit cheaper (price-wise but HIGH on quality).

I even remember a relative swallowing a bunch of meds. Isn't it a bit hassle to like gobble-up a bunch of  supplements..When you can just drink one and it will all protect you from future illnesses? With NOW Foods wide selection of supplements, I know for sure that you will love them.

When I got their invite to attend its presscon, I personally didn't know a thing about NOW FOODS, most especially that I haven't visited the U.S. just yet. Their actually a recipient of  2011 Herbal Industry Leader Award from the American Herbal Product Association.

And this one really amused me! Because...

NOW Foods TRUE FOCUS is a pill you can take when you're too depressed! 
2nd is that when we hear our bones pop, it mean there are Nitrogen Bubbles poppin!


NOW Foods is one of the top-selling health food brands in the U.S.A.  What started out as a small family business in Illinois is now an award-winning manufacturer, a respected advocate of the natural product industry, and a pioneer in the fields of nutritional science and methods development.  NOW Foods may have grown considerably since its humble beginnings, but it remains a family-owned company committed to providing products and services that empower people to lead healthier lives.

When WEIGHT matters.....



Lately over the past of six months of blogging about food, I have gained enough to consider taking the unnecessary weight off. Stop blogging about food is not the right step to do.Blogging about something I have learned to love is one thing I cannot imagine doing.

But of course I still have to look out after my Health and over-all well being. Sometimes that is one thing we kept on overlooking. Just because we are happy with what we are doing doesn't mean it is justifiable to do.

The idea of losing weight has been lurking on my mind these past 2 months and I think it's time to put that plan into action.

Comfort and safety are always one of the things we take note of whenever we purchase something, especially if it is a girl or woman’s thing.
