RESEARCH | Fermented foods in the Philippines, such as burong isda (fermented fish), are not only part of our culinary heritage but also rich sources of beneficial bacteria. In this study, we isolated and studied two strains of Limosilactobacillus fermentum—a type of lactic acid bacteria—from burong isda collected in Arayat, Pampanga. Using both laboratory tests and advanced genomic tools, we investigated whether these bacteria could serve as probiotics that support health.

We found that both strains can survive in acidic and bile-rich conditions similar to the human stomach and intestines, which is important for any probiotic. This means they have strong potential to be developed into health-promoting probiotics for food or medical use. Our work highlights how traditional Filipino foods can lead to scientific discoveries with real health benefits.

Working with tofu is working with

Antioxidant Isoflavones
Good for hormone support in women - maganda ka kahit nagmenopause
Good for hormone support in men - prostate cancer fighter

Madami pa to. Heart benefits. High protein content.

P50-80.00. pag susyal ka, may P150 korean, japanese or chinese style. But feeds the whole family na.

Do good to your self.

Don’t punish your body unnecessarily with toxins.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐜: 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞

I remember a 31-year-old patient who frequently bought antibiotics ‘Sa kapitbahay’, taking them for every minor illness, fevers, the occasional runny nose, illnesses that did not require antibiotics. No prescription, no proper dosing, just whatever was available. He felt fine, until one day, he wasn’t.

Pneumonia, which would have been treated with first-line antibiotics turned deadly. The usual antibiotics didn’t work. Even the strongest last-resort drugs failed. He succumbed to a drug-resistant bacterial infection that, years ago, would have been easily treatable.

The worst part? His younger sibling contracted it too, and was treated in the hospital for 16 days in the Intensive care unit.

This isn’t a rare case. Antibiotic resistance is growing, and it’s killing people.

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐈𝐬 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠?

• Rampant overuse and misuse of antibiotics, self-medication, incomplete courses, unnecessary prescriptions.
• Unregulated sales in pharmacies and even online.
• Antibiotics in livestock and agriculture, accelerating resistance.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲

• Drug-resistant infections already kill 1.2 million people per year, more than HIV/AIDS or malaria.
• Simple infections like pneumonia or UTIs are becoming harder to treat.
• We are running out of effective antibiotics.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐁𝐞 𝐃𝐨𝐧𝐞?

• Stop using antibiotics without a prescription. They don’t work for colds, flu, or viral infections.
• Stronger regulations on antibiotic sales, no more over-the-counter access.
• Better hygiene and infection control to slow the spread of resistant bacteria.
• Investment in new antibiotics and alternative treatments.

This isn’t a future threat. It’s already here. If we don’t act, we’re heading toward a world where a minor cut, a simple cough, or a routine surgery could be a death sentence.

Anong investment mo para sa sarili mo today?

Kami magsasaing ng white at red rice.
Yung red po nyan, punong puno ng sustansya and antioxidants.

Kanin palang, vitamins na.

Acquired taste? Di sanay?
Start mo na gawing masarap ang masustansya. Sanayin na. Acquired nga kasi. 👍

So bumili ako ng 2nd hand blender a long time ago sa mga decluttering peepz. Been using this to make healthy yummy shakes para sa aking family! Especially if may picky eater!

Sa picture, may leftover pipino, finreezer, asukal
Onting lemon then tadaaaan

Sa true, we really feel the difference pag walang gulay sa katawan. Yung akala mo signs of aging, signs of lack of proper healthy diet lang pala!

Pipino - andaming antioxidant, low cal, hugh fiber po ito! Pagkatapos mo ilagay sa mata, iblender mo na! Char!

Happy Monday folks, shine your brightest light today!

Napansin mo ba na hirap ka na makakita pag gabi? O di kaya, yung parang hirap mag adjust yung mata mula sa maliwanag papunta sa mas madilim na lugar?

Baka Vitamin A deficiency na po iyan.

Beta-carotene, mula sa kalabasa ang isa sa pinakamabisang paraan para iwasan ito! Sige na, mag ulam na ng kalabasa. Pampalakas pa ito ng katawan!

P.s. Did you know na affected din ang skin mo if you lack Vitamin A? Maybe that’s why some people have tried all creams and lotions but still… skin is dull and scaly. Would you want to know what more needs to be done to make that skin glow? Book a consultation now and let’s work it out together!❤
