Start by looking after your blood health to help keep your immune system at its peak

It is in great times of uncertainties where the Filipino resilience has always triumphed. The world is made witness that even in the face of tragedies and calamities, Filipinos will endure with big smiles on their faces — and this is what inspired Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) to create an anthem that would resonate to this unfailing spirit.

 

‘Dugo’y Pagtibayin’ by Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) is a reminder to Filipinos that it is through our individual hope and strength that makes the collective power to rise amid this most trying time. Through the power of music to soothe the soul and with no less than Sarah Geronimo behind the song, this gives the melody a deeper meaning of how this nation can keep moving forward dahil sa lakas ng Dugong Pinoy.

“Sulong dugong Pinoy, pagtibayin ang dugo natin.”

 

Sarah is a believer of the power of music to uplift spirits, “For me, mahalaga ang music lalo na ngayon na may pinagdadaanan tayo. Music is very powerful, it’s the language of our soul... Iba yung nagagawa niyang pang-boost ng morale.”

 

With her soulful performance of the song, Sarah brings to life the meaning of dugong Pinoy with her every lyric that shows how a nation’s strength is fueled by Filipinos who do not get weakened nor get tired easily.

 

“Nung nalaman ko po na gagawa ako ng bagong kanta for Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+), I got excited. I know that it is going to be meaningful,” shares Sarah Geronimo.

 

Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) put together this LSS-worthy and inspiring music video with the goal that as Filipinos start to go out of their houses more to serve their families and the nation, the more that they need to keep their blood health in check as one of the ways to keep the body healthy.

 

Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) asks the nation, “Do you know how to maintain your blood health?”

 

The ‘Dugo’y Pagtibayin’ music video raises the awareness on maintaining healthy blood to help keep immunity at its peak. Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) takes the action to educate more Filipinos to take charge of their health by sharing these three ways on how to maintain one’s blood health:

 

1.     Exercise regularly. Among the many benefits of exercising, when it comes to blood health, any exercise that can get the blood pumping even as simple as walking, is already beneficial to the body. The more the body moves, the more blood will be pumped around it. Good blood circulation helps the cells of immune system to move freely so they can function efficiently.¹

 

2.     Manage your stress. Experiencing constant anxiety and stress can affect blood circulation. However, with the looming uncertainties brought upon by the current situation,

^1 ’How to boost your Immune System’, Harvard Health Publishing, https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/how-to-boost-your-immune-system 

it is inevitable to feel stressed – but this can be managed. Stress buster activities and behaviors like yoga, meditation, listening to music, or safely spending time with the people you care about can help you feel calmer and more in control of your life. ² Managing your stress better is one way to help improve your blood flow. 

3.     Taking Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+). ³ If you’re running on a hectic routine whether you’re just at home or out for work, taking Multivitamins significantly helps when the food you eat isn’t able to provide your body the nutrients and minerals it needs.

 Multivitamins + Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) contains vitamins and minerals that helps to replenish iron stores and increases red blood cell levels in the body. ⁴

 

Recommended intake is one to two capsules daily, during or after meals, or as prescribed by your doctor.

Being proud to have a Dugong Pinoy means that you take charge of your overall health. Start by looking after your blood health to help keep your immune system at its peak. ⁵

How to rebuild and transform economies post COVID-19 while confronting the climate crisis?

The virtual conference held on 20^th January 2021, organized by ELEVATE in partnership with Huawei, served as a platform for framing the green recovery in Asia. Speakers shared their insights about the recent government plans, commitments and measures towards more inclusive and green economies. 

 

How to rebuild and transform economies post COVID-19 while confronting the climate crisis? The pandemic reminded us of the impact humanity has had on the environment, making green recovery essential. Cleaner air quality and effective waste management can help generate economic growth, while improving resilience of communities to global pandemics. Digital technologies also have the ability to reduce energy consumption and emissions across a number of industries, from the use of big data to IoT solutions, and can empower renewable energies via the use of AI solutions. 

 

Asia Pacific, excluding China, comprises nearly half of the world’s population and about 25% of the world’s GDP in 2019, which exhibits a collective appeal for new ICT infrastructure, an integrated approach to sustainable and inclusive development, and renewed optimism for green economic models.

 

“We firmly believe that technology must be used for the good of the planet, our one and only home.”, said Catherine Chen, Huawei Corporate Senior Vice President and Director of the Board. She emphasized the importance of tackling climate change and highlighted Huawei’s contribution to reducing carbon emissions, pursuing new renewable energy resources, and supporting circular economy through green ICT solutions. “I am fully confident in not only our ability to drive technology forward, but also in the global community's ability and determination to build a harmonious relationship with nature.”, she stated.

 

In order to align with the Paris Agreement support the UN Sustainable Development Goals, Huawei commits to minimizing its environmental impact in production, operations, and throughout the lifecycles of its products and services. As a part of our commitment to innovative technology for a better planet, we aim to save resources and drive industries to build a low-carbon society. 

 

The event featured speakers from Governments and International organizations from the Asia Pacific region, including: Dr. Vong Sok, Head of the Environment Division and Assistant Director of Sustainable Development Director at the ASEAN Secretariat, Mr. Yeon-chul Yoo, Ambassador for Climate Change at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea, Asad Naqvi, the Head of Secretariat of the Partnership for Action on Green Economy (PAGE-UNEP), Ma Aimin, Deputy Director of the National Center for Climate Change Strategy and International Cooperation at the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of the People’s Republic of China, Hyoeun Jenny Kim, Deputy Director-General of the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) and Meng Liu, Head of Asia Pacific Networks at the United Nations Global Compact.

 

“The event clearly articulated the challenges and opportunities of a post-COVID recovery consistent with the pressing demands of climate change and other environmental imperatives. It envisaged a green growth agenda being possible through committed partnerships between governments, businesses and civil society organizations.”, said 

Richard Welford, Senior Advisor at ELEVATE.

Garmin esports smartwatch tracks, analyzes and streams biometric performance

Garmin Philippines today announced the Instinct Esports Edition, a rugged GPS smartwatch uniquely designed for esports athletes and enthusiasts to take their gaming performance to the next level. Using Garmin’s proven health and fitness tracking technologies, the Instinct Esports Edition uses a dedicated esports activity function to track and analyze heart rate and stress during play, as well as offer long-term trend analysis. 

 

Garmin’s new STR3AMUP! PC streaming tool also provides Instinct users the ability to livestream biometric data to audiences for a new streaming experience¹. And with over three days of battery life in esports mode, users can make the most of their playing time.

“Elite athletes around the world depend on Garmin products to monitor and improve their performance. With the Instinct Esports Edition, esports athletes can tap into that same technology to track and examine how their body responds to intense competition,” said Mr. Scoppen Lin, Director, Garmin Asia. “Players can also use Instinct’s data to make adjustments in their daily lives, whether it be altering sleep patterns or activity levels, which can result in increased cognitive and physical performance during play.”

 

The Instinct Esports Edition is purpose-built to military standards (MIL-STD 810), yet its exceedingly lightweight design provides a distraction-free gaming experience. It provides up to 80 hours of battery life in esports mode and up to 14 days in smartwatch mode for less time charging and more time gaming. Instinct’s bold black and red colors, high-contrast display and rugged design bring to life a non-traditional smartwatch. When paired with a compatible smartphone, Instinct also provides smart notifications such as email, texts, and alerts to a user’s wrist so they can stay connected both during and outside of game play. 

 

Dedicated Esports Activity Profile 

Prior to a match, users simply select the esports activity on Instinct. Once activated, Garmin’s proven wrist-based heart rate technology² analyzes and displays a user’s heart rate and stress level in addition to the time of day and a game timer. Similar to other athletic competitions, actively monitoring stress and heart rate in real time can provide the opportunity to manage physical and mental resources for more effective and focused competition. Once a gaming session has ended, users can sync their activity to the free Garmin Connect app³ to view, store and analyze their data to see how their body reacts in different gaming situations.

 

STR3AMUP! Livestream Biometrics

When using the esports activity, players can utilize Garmin’s new STR3AMUP! PC streaming tool to broadcast heart rate, stress level and Body Battery live and embed this data into their video streams or recordings using customizable overlays. Displaying these metrics allows players to interface with their audience and showcase – in real time – the physical and mental demands of competitive play.  STR3AMUP! allows audiences to be further engaged with their favorite player or team. 

 

Body Metrics Tracking

Designed with an emphasis on elite-tier competition, the Instinct Esports Edition provides a variety of valuable body metric analytics features², so users can analyze and fine-tune how their body reacts to competitive play³. These include: 

●      Wrist-Based Heart Rate – Get heart rate data along with alerts if a user’s heart rate stays too high or too low while at rest, and gauge how hard their heart is working during specific gaming moments. 

●      Advanced Sleep Monitoring – Users get a full picture of how they are sleeping with a breakdown of light, deep and REM sleep stages. This allows users to interpret and make lifestyle modifications for more focused play. 

●      Stress Tracking – Using Garmin’s heart rate variability, the Instinct Esports Edition can calculate an individual’s stress level score, giving them the opportunity to optimize stress management to conserve mental and physical resources. 

●      Body Battery Energy Monitor – Uses heart rate, stress and sleep data to determine how much energy a user has – letting them know when to play and when to rest.  

●      30+ sports apps and robust activity tracking – Users can train with preloaded activity profiles outside the gaming world. For athletes who want to monitor performance even further, an optional Heart Rate Monitor chest strap is available for purchase separately.

 

Partnership with Tier One Entertainment

Garmin Philippines has confirmed a partnership with Tier One Entertainment, the first esports talent agency in Southeast Asia, for an upcoming collaboration with a few esports personalities. They get to prove their grit and fight it out in a game of Valorant while donning the new Instinct Esports Edition watch, tracking and broadcasting their biometric data for their audiences. This collaboration will take place in the first quarter of the year. It will be streamed live on the Facebook pages of AMPLFY, the personalities, as well as Garmin Philippines.

 

“Through this partnership with Garmin, we can show that esports is more than just playing the game; it requires mental and emotional strength, as well as physical readiness.” said Mr. Brian Dacanay, Director of Commercial Partnerships, Tier One Entertainment. “With the Instinct Esports Edition watch, our talents will get to broadcast their biometrics data for the audiences while they are livestreaming. We look forward to delivering more exciting esports livestreaming experiences for our audiences.”

 

The latest innovation from Garmin, the Instinct Esports Edition is available now for a suggested retail price of PHP 16,995 in all Garmin Brand Stores, official Garmin online stores: Lazada, Shopee, Zalora, Kinetic.com.ph and Garmin PH Viber Community.

With Samsung Home Upgrade Deals, enjoy a safer and healthier space for the year ahead with up to 25% on selected appliances

With more time spent inside the home nowadays, maintaining clean and orderly home spaces have become important. Most everyday activities are now done indoors, such as exercising and working. Having piles  of dirty clothes or a cluttered kitchen while on work or play can be distracting. 

 

Additionally, hectic work-from-home schedules usually take time away from doing chores. By upgrading to more useful and trusted home appliances, however, maintaining cleanliness can be done efficiently. Achieve a house in perfect order with a few changes featuring some innovative appliances from Samsung Digital Appliances.

 

Cook in a kitchen equipped with the right refrigerator

In the kitchen, the refrigerator usually gets messy and cramped. With leftovers and stocked food stacking up inside as weeks pass, a bigger and a more organized space is definitely needed.

The French Door Refrigerator features a Food Showcase Door, which is “a fridge within a fridge” that allows for food to be organized efficiently. This feature also lets family members quickly find their favorite  food, drinks, or sauces. 

And with its FlexZone feature, different food and drinks are stored at their optimal temperature, keeping them fresh and tasty longer. Its four pre-set temperature settings for fridge, chilling, soft freeze, and freezing, are ideal for preserving meat and fish, storing deli foods, chilling wine, and cooling beverages.

 

Relax in a cozy bedroom by routinely tidying up

Keeping the house in perfect order also includes the bedroom, where others spend most of their time. Having a cozy and tidy bedroom where people can lounge and sleep is very important.

 

To achieve this, one can routinely clean the room and allot a day to organize clutter that has accumulated throughout the week, to change sheets, or just to generally clean the room. It’s very easy to feel relaxed in a bedroom that feels cozy and comfortable. When a routine is in motion, this should be no problem.

 

Get thoroughly cleaned clothes using an efficient  washing machine

Each family member has clothes with different fabrics and colors that need to be cleaned in different ways at home, which makes laundry day a bit of a heavy chore.

 

With Samsung’s Washer Dryer Combo, the work will definitely be a lot lighter. Its AirWash  technology deodorizes and sanitizes not only clothes but also linens, so they always smell fresh. Using just super-hot air, unpleasant odors, bacteria, and allergens are removed without boiling or using chemicals, making it great at intensive stain removal.

 

On the other hand, its Bubble Soak technology thoroughly soaks clothes in bubbles, so even a variety of stubborn stains are loosened and removed effectively.

Perfectly sanitized and cleaned clothes will definitely add to the whole order of a home.

 

Little upgrades, such as getting a routine in place, are equally important as investing in trusty new appliances; these will surely keep a house in perfect order. As more and more time is spent at home, a change here and there will create significant differences.

 With Samsung Home Upgrade Deals, enjoy a safer and healthier space for the year ahead with up to 25% on selected appliances. Promo runs until March 31, 2021. Visit SamsungPH on Facebook andsamsung.com/ph/offer/offline/2021/home-upgrade-sale to know more about this promo and other participating products.
