Traffic in the metro can easily take a toll on a person’s temper not to mention having to deal with the spiked fuel cost. People are trying not to lose hope for traffic to get better in the country but with the looks of it, we might have to cope with the situation until road repairs and construction gets done in a few more years.

MANILA, November 25, 2016. Global nutritional company Usana Philippines gives thanks today to another year of breakthroughs in 2016 in its advocacy to promote good health across all sectors nationwide. Its various accomplishments during the past year touched the lives of Filipino athletes, empowered the youth and contributed significantly in relieving suffering and hunger around the world, among others.

Aurora “Duday” Gaston, USANA Vice President for the Philippines and Indonesia, shared highlights from the past year where USANA:
• took home two major awards at the 2016 DSA annual meeting. Its charitable organization, the USANA True Health Foundation (THF), was presented the Vision for Tomorrow award in the philanthropy category and USANA was also named to the Top 20 list of direct selling companies.
• True Health Foundation graduated 300 Cornerstone Foundation scholars after supporting a year of regular Saturday tutorials and feeding program.
• launched the third batch of Team USANA Pilipinas athletic ambassadors to help inspire people to stay healthy and fit for competition.
• Introduced Proglucamune, a new immune system boosting optimizer, that helps strengthen the immune system.
• Launched USANA Probiotic, a food supplement that supports digestive health.

“The company’s achievements in 2016 are a direct result of our dedicated associates, who focused on providing safe, quality and convenient health products to an expanding base of customers and consumers, and in introducing innovative ways to market them,” Ms. Gaston said. “Our goal is to deliver accelerated growth to USANA as well as to all of us who depend on it in our daily lives. We think that we have made a very strong performance in 2016 and promise to surpass it in the years ahead.”

Major Awards for Charity and Profitability
At the 2016 Direct Selling Association (DSA) annual meeting, USANA True Health Foundation, USANA’s charitable organization, was honored with the Vision for Tomorrow award in the philanthropy category. Through donations, the Foundation’s worldwide programs provide critical necessities such as nutrition, clothing, shelter, medical assistance and health education to disadvantaged and disenfranchised communities around the world. Among other assistance, it supplied $225,000 in disaster aid, vaccines and water purification tablets to Malaysia, the Philippines and victims of the earthquakes in Nepal, and distributed $87,192 in materials to help rebuild fishing boats among those affected by Typhoon Yolanda.

The global nutritional company was also named to the Top 20 list of direct selling companies by the DSA, based on 2015 U.S. net sales. Over the last few years, USANA has seen amazing global financial growth, with the company recently reporting its 13th consecutive year of record sales and earnings. Net sales for 2015 increased by an exceptional16.2 percent to a record $918.5 million. USANA has also been named to the Top 20 list in 2013 and 2014 and looks to become a mainstay on the DSA Top 20 list in the future.

These two awards given by an internationally recognized industry association bolster the reputation of USANA as a global leader in multi-level marketing. They speak well of the years of hard work and entrepreneurial foresight to establish and sustain a highly competitive yet well-managed multinational organization.

Within the company, USANA Philippines’s customer service team proudly made history as it received the first-ever International Contact Center of the Year award from Robby Gold, executive director of customer service. The award, established only this 2016, was based on industry standards of service levels and abandoned percent rates, and encompasses the call center, order desks and pick-up/will-call desks.

Youth Empowerment for a Better Future
After a year of regular Saturday tutorials and a feeding program conducted by volunteers of USANA True Health Foundation and Cornerstone Foundation in Paranaque City, more than 300 primary and secondary pupils marched on Moving Up Day, the graduation day of Cornerstone scholars. The event marked the fruition of the two foundations’ continuing vision to sustain the youth with good health so they can maximize their potentials. It’s also a testament that quality education can be made accessible to the poorer segments of society.

Even in its CSR activities, USANA reaffirms its commitment to share the blessings of its windfall fortune to the less privileged sector of society. The uplift of a Filipino community is the latest success story in a broad range of beneficial projects USANA has undertaken across the globe over the years.

Inspiring Filipinos to a Healthy Lifestyle
Now on its third year, the latest batch of Team USANA Pilipinas was launched to serve as role models to Filipinos from all walks of life. The team is composed of Filipino athletes from various sports who rely on USANA to keep themselves healthy and fit for local and international competitions. At the same time, the athletes serve as an inspiration among Filipinos to achieve success by living well.

The 3rd batch of Team USANA Pilipinas joins more than 1,000 world-class athletes who take USANA to stay in top shape. This faith in USANA health supplements reflects their personal and professional trust that each USANA product is safe and of premium quality.

Happy Tummy, Strengthened Immunity
In 2016, two new products were introduced to the market in response to challenges in today’s changing lifestyle. USANA Probiotic is a food supplement that supports digestive health while Proglucamune boosts the immune system.

USANA Probiotic features a unique 50/50 mixture of two strains of probiotic bacteria that support a natural balance of beneficial microflora in the gut. In addition, the probiotic bacterial strains in USANA Probiotic also help promote and sustain a healthy immune system through improved gut health. More immune cells are concentrated in the gut than in any other region of the body, and substantial amount of specific probiotics can strengthen the body’s natural defenses by modulating the cellular immune response. A healthier digestion leads to productivity and helps people get more out of life.

Scientifically developed for the immune system, USANA Proglucamune is packed with four immune-boosting ingredients, namely Shitake Mushroom, Reishi Mushroom, Baker’s Yeast, and Zinc. It combines ancient wisdom with modern science so immune cells work faster and more efficiently.

USANA makes a difference by being a world leader in scientifically developed health products. Its Probiotic and Proglucamune are the newest health supplements to come from a long line of quality products that incorporate the results of in-depth scientific studies and produced though state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in the USA. These unique corporate strengths set USANA apart from the competition.

Germany celebrated 500 years of the beer purity law last April and we would like to take this opportunity to introduce our company and the products we have. Stammtisch Trading Inc. is the exclusive distributor of Kaiser Brau and Veldensteiner beer in the Philippines.

With Christmas just being around the corner, we felt like it was time to touch base with our favorite doctor and ask how 2016 has been for him. Doctor Paolo Bellosillo, our favorite nature therapy doctor answers a few questions for us this season of giving. Read on and learn more about what he has to say.

 It's Xmas season once again, how has 2016 treated you in terms of health and spreading the word about your advocacy?


The Mission of helping people Live A Legacy this 2016 has been a blast. Starting of the year of 2016, many came for the need to detoxify and lose weight. Towards the middle, chronic and degenerative diseases of the heart and kidneys started piling with comorbidities existing in every individual. The third quarter received much need to address cancer patients while cascading various preventive medicine techniques to senior citizens and the youth. Lastly the fourth quarter starting with October became a preparation period for those who have chronic stress and fatigue who are usually exposed to much pain due to inflammation, mostly professionals who experience pain in the areas of the head, spine both cervical and lumbar and lastly of the chest which is usually circulation based. You can say that a lot of people are indeed in need for some healthy ageing.


What is the one thing you wish people would make as part of their NY resolution?

Knowing we only have one life, it is so valuable that in hope, I pray others would reduce all practices that will prove to be a threat to life. An example is smoking, drinking alcohol and eating beyond one’s capacity of unfriendly fats and too much salt and sweets. Perhaps being mindful of one’s gift, Intellect Will and Soul, sound decisions can be made. So think of yourself and others too.

Do you think there will be more heart related sickness in the future and how can people avoid it?

Well policies exist as well as institutions to help mold the awareness of people about what’s good and what’s not but certainly there are big factors that are at play, personal decisions and dispositions, societal norms, product and activity fads created by media cascade dependent on the period and season, ways and means to cope with stress, urban and regional existing interplays of land uses and activities which actually affect the movements and living of people; there may be more but these certainly are factors that will dictate how much heart related sickness would occur.

What's one thing that people need to do to make sure they maintain a healthy heart?

Know who you are. You are Gods child and have been given one heart. Once it stops beating you are gone forever. Know your role, you’re a team player in your family and community. Others need you. Know your limits. Master yourself. You can’t manage something you can’t measure. If it’s about health, see your holistic medicine or integrative medicine specialist who will view your health as a whole system and not by parts.

Commit to good sound and safe change in your lifestyle, be it nutrition, fitness, sleep, relationships and of course spirituality. Talk to your specialist for a customized program. Believe the truth that while stem cell therapy can help repair and regenerate tissues even that of the heart, on an acute episode or attack, stem cell may not right away regenerate the infarct part of the heart, that part of the heart will die and its function will be diminished to an extent that you might lose your life hence knives and scissors would be the only way to help you- surgery. If you can stay away from knives and scissors, do so, although it may help on emergency cases much uncertainty is also present when one is opened.

What's one thing that people need to avoid to make sure they don't trigger a heart attack?

Stress brought about by lack of appropriate sleep, diet and exercises. When you sleep, sleep without the phone the noise and the lights which hamper proper sleep. When you feel like celebrating this season with cheese, protein preservatives like ham and sweets like cakes, pastries and ice cream, making these part of your daily diet is a no no, it will just cause more problems for your heart as these substances will eventually cause the hardening and stiffening of your arteries. Lack of proper coping with stress can cause surge in stress hormones which eventually may cause rise in sugar and lipid levels which further increase your cardiovascular disease risk, due to the inflammation they bring. Going out on a daily high consumption of pro inflammatory food without exercising at least for 30 minutes may cause build up in plaque within your arteries and other blood vessels. All these things mentioned put your heart at risk, because you failed to live a healthy lifestyle- live to the fullest by making sound and calculated decisions that increase your life expectancy and longevity.

There are many ways to bond with families and friends and one of those is eating together, enjoying the best food prepared and served with love.

          Sleep is the most underestimated activity. Most of us see sleep only as a means to rest and would easily give up sleep in order to stretch our day. In fact sleep is vital in achieving good health. 

Understanding the importance of sleep, LifeScience Center for Health and Wellness introduces its signature Sleep Analysis and Consultation. The analysis and consultation is geared towards helping individuals sleep their way to good health. 

"Most of us take sleep for granted and don't fully realize how sleep impacts our well-being," says Dr. Denise Lavilles of LifeScience Center for Health and Wellness. "Beyond getting our body to rest and regain physical strength, quality sleep supports mental and physical health, and affects quality of life. How we feel and perform throughout the day is affected by how well we slept. It is during sleep when our body is working to support vital functions of the brain and organs. Sleep also helps our cells regenerate," added Lavilles.

Sleep deprivation affects us physically and mentally. Lack of quality sleep makes us feel constantly tired, less productive, moody, react slower, making us prone to mistakes and accidents. Mentally, it affects our cognitive function, making us unable to properly focus and retain information. Our risk for chronic disease also increases with chronic sleep deprivation.

"Because of being constantly sleep deprived, having a restful sleep eventually becomes a challenge and may lead to unhealthy habits and dependency on sleeping pills. But sleep issues can be addressed." says Lavilles. 

The LifeScience Sleep Analysis and Consultation tackles sleep issues through a multi-disciplinary, scientific and proactive approach. “It is vital to recognize the basic underlying factors affecting and causing sleep problems, in order to determine the appropriate steps needed to sleep better. We cannot simply just keep treating the symptoms. Sleeping pills, for example, may help for a brief period of time and under a doctor’s supervision. However, insomnia cannot be cured with sleeping pills alone. They can actually make insomnia worse in the long run. Sleep is such a dynamic and relational process – it has to be understood in relation to everything else.”

"As unique individuals, sleep issues can be caused by so many things, such as occupational and lifestyle factors, as well as physiologic and biologic alterations, like hormone changes and nutrient deficiencies. Because of the varying influences and types of sleep disorders, a personalized and comprehensive approach is key in addressing sleep issues down to root cause," stressed Lavilles.
The first step is to find out more about the individual during and beyond his sleep through traditional and advanced methods such as comprehensive history taking, actigraphy, heart rate variability, 24-hour salivary cortisol/melatonin, nutrient and metabolic profiling. Once this information is available, your Physician will map-out a treatment plan that lets you fully understand what issues affect your sleep. A more thorough understanding of how your body works empowers you to be more involved in getting your restful sleep back.
