Watsons Makes Health and Wellness Accessible

     In a perfect world, people would eat six servings of fruits and vegetables every day, their diet would not include red and/or processed meat and they'd exercise regularly. But the realities of our lives do not make it possible for us to do all that and we do need to supplement our diet with vitamins.

     Taking vitamins not only gives us the energy to help us get through the day, but it also helps boost the immune system and improve our memory and mood. Even during quarantines and lockdowns, Watsons has given Filipinos access to vitamins, supplements, OTC medications, and personal products through its 800+ stores nationwide and its online channels. Good health is just a click or a tap away if you're unable to go to a Watsons store!

How Diamonds are Made into Jewelry: Cutting, Setting & More

     There are several factors that serve to define a truly stunning piece of jewelry. The type of metal utilized, the level of craftsmanship, and its inherent characteristics will all have a massive impact. However, there is no doubt that the presence of a high-quality diamond can make or break even the most expensive pieces.

     Of course, this is partially due to the sheer brilliance of the stone itself. We nonetheless need to remember that it takes a great deal of skill to transform a rather generic piece of jewelry into one which captivates the eye of the beholder. This is why appreciating the process in greater detail is always a good idea. How is an otherwise "anonymous" diamond transformed into jewelry?
