Give your health a natural boost with Sekaya Botanic Infusions

 

While quarantine restrictions are eased, now is not a good time to hit the brakes and let our guard down in the new normal. It’s still a must to strictly follow safety protocols, and more importantly, to continue the good health habits we’ve started while in lockdown. As we’ve all learned, our body isn’t invincible as it needs proper nutrition, enough exercise, and quality sleep to stay healthy. It won’t also hurt to take extra steps for our overall wellbeing. 

 

Filipino plant-based brand Sekaya offers the Sekaya Botanic Infusions, a curated line of botanical blends for your health and wellness goals, that can give our body an added boost as it performs its many functions. Each blend is made with 100% organic plant ingredients that are non-GMO and non-irradiated and have been certified organic by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Quality Assurance International (QAI). 

 

We’re dishing on 5 Sekaya Botanic Infusions to keep in your pantry as we step closer to the new normal: 

 

Strengthen the body’s immunity with Immune Brew. Fight off viruses and other bugs with proper rest, and lots of fluids that include this infusion that aims to boost your immune system at its most vulnerable. Subtle and fruity, it contains botanicals like echinacea purpurea leaf, lemon peel, elderberries, and ginger root that have been traditionally used to keep the common flu and simple infections away.

 

Ramp up your drive with Energy Mix. Beat mental fatigue, clear your head and keep up with the day’s to-dos with this young Hyson green tea botanical blend that matches your busy lifestyle. It also has eleuthero that may increase stamina and invigorate energy, ginkgo that can enhance memory with its positive effects on the vascular system, and ginger to support improved thinking and memory capacity. Together, they make a mellow, minty, sweet botanical infusion that you can switch with your afternoon cup of joe.

Beat stress by getting quality zzzs with Easy Nightcap. A good night’s sleep is a pillar of good health. Make sure you get more than a wink of sleep by steeping and sipping a cup of Easy Nightcap that can help calm down anxiety and relieve stress and tension for more quality sleep. Boasting a delicate and herbal taste, it contains catnip that can help reduce chronic anxiety and stress and skullcap leaves to help calm the mind. 

 

Enhance your body’s healing functions with Gentle DTX. It combines traditional botanicals that are meant to help strengthen the body’s daily detoxification actions. With a light and exotic flavor, Gentle DTX has burdock root that’s commonly used as a diuretic and a digestive aid, and dandelion root that’s known as a bile tonic and something that can help improve digestion. 

 

Keep your skin glowing with Skin Cleanse. Wearing face masks has taken a toll on our skin health. Get your glow back with a cup of Skin Cleanse. Having a spiced and sweet aroma with a hint of earthiness, it contains a blend of botanicals that have been long used to help clear the skin of impurities. Licorice root is a natural detoxifier that’s used to treat various skin conditions, while cinnamon bark has antifungal and antibacterial properties that are useful against acne and blemishes.

Sekaya brings together medical expertise and personal experiences to tell the story of the power of food

Its true, you are what you eat. What you put into your body matters. I learned a lot in "Sekaya Prescribing Nature Series: Transforming your Life with Food" online session held today. The virtual event is graced by medical experts in the field. If you are into plant-based diet, like me, then this one's for you. 

Over the past years, a big health turning point has led many people to go back to basics – pivoting to more whole foods, vegetables and fruits, and plant-based food supplements – as the awareness of what you eat can impact your overall health and wellness continues to grow.

Sekaya is bringing that conversation to the fore, particularly as we face ongoing health challenges. As the flagship brand of Synnovate Pharma Corporation, the natural products company of Unilab, Sekaya is intent on Prescribing Nature through plant-based functional products that take advantage of all the benefits that nature provides, while backing these up with strong scientific research and pharma-grade processing.

With the mission of helping Filipinos come up with informed choices about the products they consume, Sekaya Prescribing Nature Series: Transforming your Life with Food is an engaging panel discussion that presents both medical expertise and real-life experiences. 

Dr. John La Puma, chef, and co-founder of ChefMD and Plant With a Doc

We all fundamentally know that natural is better and healthier for us, but having medical experts in the field confirming this premise provides stronger proof and assurance. Dr. John La Puma, internationally renowned internal medicine specialist, chef, and co-founder of ChefMD and Plant With a Doc, and Dr. Oyie Balburias, FPCP, IFMCP, and functional medicine pioneer in the Philippines discuss how the right food – as meals or medicine – can have huge implications on improving our personal, physical, medical, and mental health.

According to Dr. La Puma, “Just like the ‘food-as-medicine’ movement decades ago, nature-based medicine is beginning to emerge as a scientifically-proven school of thought and a critical medical intervention that has both immediate and long-term health benefits.”

“Being healthy means putting the right fuel in your body. Whole foods act as medicine that protect and heal, and give your immune system a break from toxins and additives found in processed food,” says Dr. Balburias. “Every meal you eat influences the way you feel, in one way or another, so the more nutritious food you choose, the closer you are to getting to optimum health.”
