Patience, Chemistry, ‘Pusong PLDT’: High Speed Hitters Heading to 1st PVL Finals Match

     It’s time. After seemingly elusive chances at the podium in the past conferences, the PLDT High Speed Hitters are finally closing in on their first-ever Premiere Volleyball League (PVL) championship as they take on the Chery Tiggo Crossovers this Sunday at the Mall of Asia Arena.

     The Manuel V. Pangilinan-backed team definitely revved their momentum all the way up to a fever pitch. Finishing the short but sweet PVL off-season conference undefeated, the High Speed Hitters took out the Creamline Cool Smashers with a heart-thumping 5-set victory in the semifinals do-or-die.

Championing Antioxidant Power for Everyday Wellness

     It's alarming! The 2023 National Nutrition Survey revealed that four in ten adults (39.8%) are overweight or obese. Even more concerning, nearly one in ten Filipino children are now affected: figures that exceed global thresholds and signal an urgent need for action. In today’s fast-paced world, the way we eat has changed—dramatically, and not for the better. Long work hours, relentless traffic, and the constant juggling of responsibilities have pushed families toward what’s quick and convenient. But the consequences are alarming. Fast food, canned meals, and processed snacks have become everyday staples—not just for adults, but increasingly for children. And now, the damage is showing. National health data paints a disturbing picture of a growing public health crisis.

     This crisis, however, isn’t just about individual choices. It’s the result of a food system stacked against healthy living—where highly processed, unhealthy options are cheaper, easier to find, and relentlessly marketed. As the World Health Organization warns, ultra-processed foods like sugary cereals, snacks, and flavored drinks now flood store shelves. Filipino children are among the most vulnerable. According to UNICEF, their diets are shifting away from fruits and vegetables toward dangerously high levels of sugar, salt, and fat. The impact is stark: between 2019 and 2022, the percentage of overweight children aged 5 to 10 jumped from 10.4% to 14%—and the trend is continuing among adolescents.

Scenic Road Trips that Deserve to be on your Bucket List

     We don’t always take road trips to escape. Sometimes, we take them to feel more present, to discover hidden gems, and to make unforgettable memories. As writer Angela N. Blount once said, “Sometimes the most scenic roads in life are the detours you didn’t mean to take.”  In rural Philippines, where every curve in the road may reveal a mountain, a scenic cliff or a coastline, road trips are more than a way to travel, they’re a chance to reconnect with nature, with friends, or even with yourself. This is the kind of thrill that only a road trip can offer — an adventure that will stay with you for a long time.

     And with PLDT Home’s One Mega Giveaway (OMG) promo, your next adventure could come with a brand-new Toyota Fortuner, ₱1 million in cash, or free fiber internet for life. Before we tell you how, let’s talk about where to go. Here are four road trips from Manila that are scenic, soul-stirring, and full of moments that you’ll never forget.

Honor Moms with More Than a Gift: Support Their Digestive Health This Mother’s Day

     Mother's Day is just around the corner; it's the best time to celebrate the women who hold our homes and hearts together. This special day honors mothers who navigate life’s many demands with strength, grace, and resilience, often putting the needs of their families before their own. But as they continue to give so much of themselves, it’s equally important to remind them—and ourselves—that they deserve just as much care, too. One of the most meaningful ways we can show that love? By investing in their health, starting from the gut.

     Mothers are the unsung heroes, tirelessly balancing demanding careers with the never-ending responsibilities of family life. A recent Milieu Insight survey reveals just how heavy this load can be, with 66% of working mothers in the Philippines struggling to manage both duties. And even as more Filipino women are becoming proactive about their health, particularly during pregnancy and postnatal recovery, nutritional deficiencies remain a widespread concern. This has driven a demand for high-quality supplements that provide reliable, long-term support. While it's true that moms often power through discomfort or stress, they shouldn’t have to. Simple daily practices, like supporting gut health, can make a significant difference in their well-being. Trust it when a mother says, "I have a gut feeling that something is wrong." Sharing more information about the importance of gut health and what supplements you can give moms this Mother's Day after the jump.
