I’ve always thought that there’s not much difference between different kinds of bottled water. As long as it is clean and potable, it’s fine with me. And since type and brand were not that important to me before,  I just look at the price tag first. You know, the cheaper the better. Oh but before I forget, there’s also another thing that’s...

Our family’s health is of the utmost importance for us moms but sometimes, because of lack of knowledge, we only make actions to treat diseases when we are already seeing the symptoms. When it comes to asthma, we should it take more seriously because the health damages can alter someone’s life forever. Good thing though because of scientific advancements, asthma can be managed well by most parents given that they have the right tool that is always available when needed. I was recently gifted with an Omron Compressor Nebulizer...

I only know a little about asthma though I’ve lived with family members who have asthma when I was younger. The only son of one of my aunts has an asthma and I saw how challenging it was for them back then. I remember how strict my aunt was when it comes to nebulizer time and my cousin’s activities (di pwede laging mapagod or mapawisan). I also have a stepbrother who is asthmatic and my father often complains about the medicines they need to buy whenever my brother has an asthma attack. My kids do not have asthma nor my husband...

I’ve never underestimated sanitary napkins and pantyliners. I remember, since the beginning when I’ve started earning on my own, I always invest in quality napkins and liners and I stock up a lot. Especially now that my daughters are also in their puberty stage, I know how important it is for us to have enough supply of these hygiene essentials. What qualities do I look for when I buy sanitary napkins and pantyliners? I have tried almost all brands available in the market so I’m fairly knowledgeable when it comes to knowing...

I’ve been giving our girls Scott’s Vitamin C Pastilles for years already. I’ve stopped giving them syrup since they are almost always on the rush every morning. They just pop in 2 pastilles in their mouths before they head out to school. The 2 pastilles, according to the label, give them 40-86% of their Vitamin C needs in a day. That’s enough for them since they eat varied foods naman in school and at home. I’m just too glad to find out that Scott’s already has the DHA gummies which are high in Vitamin...

I’ve recently tried these Babyganics products which I can truly recommend because they are skin-friendly, even to the most sensitive type of skin, and environment friendly too. They are available in Healthy Options so I’m certain of their quality. From the name itself, Babyganics, you’ll have a hint that these products are gentle and safe to use on babies. They are made from organic products including NeoNourish – their own 100% natural, cold-pressed seed oil blend. Babyganics Moisturizing Daily Lotion With Sunscreen...
