UST’s Henry Sy Sr. Hall to boost health education

Leaders of Henry Sy Foundation Inc. (HSFI), led by the Sy family (L-R: Harley Sy, Hans Sy, Elizabeth Sy, Debbie Sy, Tessie Sy, Henry Sy Jr, Engr. Ramon Gil Macapagal (extreme right)) , formalize its partnership with the University of Sto. Tomas (L-R: UST Rector Fr. Richard Gaw Ang, OP, Dr. Ma. Lourdes Domingo, Fr. Angel Aparicio, OP, Fr. Maximo Gatela, OP)

Pursuing its objective of driving Philippine social development by fostering the youth and the culture of excellence through education, the Henry Sy Foundation, Inc. (HSFI) recently inked a partnership with the University of Sto. Tomas (UST) Research and Endowment Foundation to construct a building that elevates health education in the country.

Thumbs up! Leaders of the Henry Sy Foundation Inc. (HSFI) and the University of Sto Tomas during the Henry Sy Sr. Hall partnership signing. 

Named in honor of the late SM Founder, the Henry Sy, Sr. Hall of UST will rise on the main campus in Manila to respond to the needs of digital medical education.

 

The Hall will feature technologically advanced facilities and equipment that complement UST’s teaching, learning, and research practices. Focused on interdisciplinary collaboration in medical studies, it will also house the simulation and research facility of the UST Faculty of Medicine and Surgery (UST-FMS). 

 

Paragons with passion

 

Fr. Richard Gaw Ang, OP, Rector of UST, thanked the Sy family as they work together to provide the best education to future physicians and increase UST’s research productivity to fill the gaps where communities are disadvantaged.

“Your family consists of industry leaders who have visions for the Filipino community. Your choice to support this endeavor of the UST Faculty of Medicine and Surgery is a significant stamp of approval to the work and tradition of this medical institution. Your family’s Patriarch, Henry Sy, Sr., had principles in life that we, as an institution, give our best to also follow. We aim to lead as paragons with passion, integrity, far-reaching and optimistic vision, sensible priorities, and discipline. At the core of this is a deep sense of charity for God, the church, and the nation.” ~Fr. Richard Gaw Ang, OP, Rector of UST

 

Designed by C.A. Ventura & Partners, the upcoming Henry Sy., Sr. Hall in UST is envisioned to propel the health education of future physicians in the country.

UST’s future Henry Sy, Sr. Hall

Rising as an intellectual hub for future physicians, the building has a dedicated floor for the Faculties of Medicine and Surgery Research Center and the Medicine and Surgery Graduate Programs and Ethics Review Board. Here, medical education research and various medical-related specialty research will be reviewed and conducted. 

The building will include specialized centers, rooms, and laboratories, such as Medical Simulation Centers and Care Ultrasound Institute, and Otorhinolaryngology Laboratory. These will be equipped with cutting-edge tools and technology to develop medical students’ competencies in multiple simulated healthcare settings crossing the human lifespan.

The HSFI is a non-stock, non-profit organization inspired by SM founder Henry Sy, Sr.’s desire to aid educational institutions to drive Philippine social development. Its projects are undertaken in partnership with the SM group and its foundations to honor the SM founder by supporting educational institutions in promoting academic excellence as a key to a brighter future for the youth. Through the years, the foundation established and supported several academic infrastructures, such as the Henry Sy Sr. Primary School Building in Xavier School, Nuvali Laguna; Henry Sy Sr. Innovation Center in Miriam College, Quezon City; NU Sports Academy in Calamba, Laguna; NU Nazareth School in Manila; and a Henry Sy Sr. Hall each at Immaculate Conception Academy, San Juan City, and Assumption College.

SM Cares partner with SMDC Light Mall, Superbook to promote disaster resilience among kids

“Our programs always incorporate values formation for the youth. During emergencies, adults may be focused on recovery efforts, but we also need to be mindful of the mental, emotional and psychosocial impact of disasters on our children.” ~Mr. Icko Gonzales, Superbook Project Head

‘GIZMO on the Go’ interactive event held in celebration of Children’s Month. As a company that strives for advocacies that benefit different sectors of society, SM Cares is committed to implementing programs on disaster preparedness and resilience that are inclusive, creating relevant initiatives not just for women, senior citizens, and persons with disabilities, but also for children and youth.

In line with its Children's Month celebrations this November, SM Cares recently partnered with SMDC Light Mall and the Emmy-nominated animated children's show Superbook for "GIZMO on the Go," with a specially-designed program to teach kids the importance of disaster preparedness in a fun way.

Held last November 17 at the SMDC Light Mall Cinema, "GIZMO on the Go" educated children on common disasters in the Philippines such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and floods, and gave them tips on what to do in times of calamity. More than 150 participants were composed of kids from the Alay Pagasa Foundation, Ilaya Barangka Integrated School, and SMDC Residences. Teachers and guardians also joined the event.

Children were taught practical survival tips through hands-on learning and interactive games.

Apart from science-based lessons and survival tips, the program also featured a special viewing of the Superbook episode of Noah's Ark to promote personal resilience among the young viewers.

To further provide comfort to children in uncertain times, SM Bears of Joy were also donated by SM Cares and various SMDC Light Mall tenants.

"At SM Cares, we believe that in order to create a Philippines that is truly disaster resilient, we need to get everyone onboard, and that includes vulnerable sectors such as our children. This is very important especially because these children are most likely the ones who will truly feel the effects of climate change, including the increased frequency of typhoons, by the time they become adults, and we want them to be ready." ~Mr. Royston Cabunag, SM Supermalls AVP for Operations and SM Cares Director for Children & Youth

Values formation and SM Bears of Joy inspire personal resilience in children before, during and after a disaster.

Aside from these activities, several interactive booths were set up for participants to visit. These featured Superbook online games, an art booth to showcase creativity, and an interactive booth to learn about family, arts, culture, and the environment. The beloved robot, Gizmo, also joined the fun. Meals and treats were made possible through SM Cares, Superbook, Jollibee, Belgian Waffles, EggdropMNL, Smart Driving School and NDZ Corporation.

Children enjoy the various activities that engage movement, creativity and problem-solving.

Busy Schedule? Try These Easy Tips for Staying Healthy

"As an actress, I do a lot of lock-in taping. There are also some scenes where I must exert a lot of energy and effort, which can be taxing for my body. That is why the 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia can help me improve my health and performance despite my busy schedule. I also made some little lifestyle changes that do not take a lot of time, so I can continue giving my best in every character I play." ~Jane De Leon, TV Personality, a sought-after young actress, and brand ambassador of Santé Barley

Learn how this wonder food can supplement your health needs while keeping up with the grind.

The hustle culture is slowly normalizing, especially for millennials who want to earn on top of their nine-to-five job. So, it’s no surprise that different working conditions that are too taxing cannot be avoided. But while you strive to be at your best, you should not forget to supply your body with what it needs.

Learn how this wonder food can supplement your health needs while keeping up with the grind.

Jane De Leon, TV Personality, a sought-after young actress, and brand ambassador of Santé Barley, knows this all too well. But despite this, she shares how easy lifestyle changes can impact how healthy she can hope to be. 

Indeed, having Santé Barley Powder with Stevia as part of her every day routine has allowed her to stay healthy.

Like Jane De Leon, here are some tips that you can apply, together with 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia, to keep your body healthy despite having a busy schedule:

Add healthy drinks to your meals. Sometimes, it is nice to end your meal by drinking sweet beverages like soft drinks, milkshakes, milk tea, and more. While these may be tasty, it’s high sugar content is definitely bad for the body. 

If a sweet drink is your guilty pleasure, it is time to switch to 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia.

200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia contains a certified organic barley grass by BioGro, New Zealand's largest and best-known certifier for organic produce and products that promote the highest levels of organic quality. Since it is sweetened using Stevia, an alternative sweetener made from stevia plant leaves, it is guaranteed to be delicious without containing carbohydrates, calories, or any artificial ingredients. 

For best results, you can serve it by mixing one heaping scoop or teaspoon into one glass (approximately 250mL) of water. Stir well and consume immediately. It is best to drink a glass daily before meals or as prescribed by a physician.   

With these, you can still enjoy your sweet drink without worrying about the repercussions that it can do on your health. You will also have a boost of energy and a healthier mind and body to face every task you need to accomplish.

Consider a meal prep. Due to your busy schedule, there are times that you will forget to eat on time. With this, you will feel tired and weak. Remember, no matter how busy you can get, it is essential to have a complete meal because your body gets the energy from the food you eat.

Consider having a meal prep. Meal prep or meal prepping is the concept of making your meals ahead of time. This is perfect for busy people because it saves you a lot of time, and you can customize your food according to your diet. With the help of meal prep, you will have a complete meal without relying on takeout or fast food.

While you are at it, you can add 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia to your meal prep. The good thing about the 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia is that it contains many vitamins and nutrients that can level up the benefits you will get from it. If your goal is to control your weight while having ample energy every day, the 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia has ingredients that can improve your gastrointestinal health, contain antioxidants, and enhance your immunity. 

Get a good night’s sleep. A busy schedule can sometimes cause you to forgo sleep and rest. If this keeps happening, you are at risk of developing illnesses like strokes, obesity, depression, and more.

Moreover, getting a good night’s sleep will hinder you from performing best at your work. It makes you less alert and can adversely impact your work. A good night’s sleep allows you to perform at your best.

When work is done, make it a point to sleep. Tune out of social media and avoid drinking coffee in the middle of the day.  Lastly, don't feel guilty about getting your beauty rest; prioritize it every day.

On top of that, the 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia also promotes sleep because it contains GABA or γ-Aminobutyric acid that activates the GABAA receptors, which favors sleep. A glass of 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia daily will help you decrease sleep latency.

In this hustle culture, it may seem impossible to achieve a healthy and balanced lifestyle. However, staying healthy while you deal with work doesn't have to be hard. A little lifestyle change goes a long way.

"Small changes can make a lot of difference, and we in Santé want to promote this. Staying healthy does not have to be extravagant. Sometimes, a simple lifestyle change can make your life better. The 200g Santé Barley Powder with Stevia is created for everyone who shares the same problem. We hope that through this product, we get to share our mission of helping everyone to live more and do more." ~Joey Marcelo, Chief Executive Officer of Santé

Santé is one of the leading global manufacturers of products with organic barley grass (certified organic by BioGro) grown and harvested from New Zealand. With its mission to help people live better lives, the company promotes, produces, and distributes premier natural health and wellness products and services.

Patch your way to wellness with LifeWave’s wearable wellness products

“Stem cells are the foundation of health. If you have less stem cells, you will get sick. It is your primary source of defense. As we grow older, the number of stem cells in our body decreases. What is nice about this product is that you wear it and you do not drink or take it. This is not a drug, not a pill, no chemicals added. It is a patented product.” ~Dang Gilera, LifeWave Philippines General Manager

There’s a company that’s making its presence felt in the health and wellness market because of its very unique products. The primary purpose of LifeWave, an advanced technology company, is to improve the health and wellness of every Filipino without the use of drugs or chemicals. What LifeWave offers are wearable wellness patches that boost cellular activity using light.
 

David Schmidt, LifeWave’s Founder and CEO

This technology was developed by David Schmidt, LifeWave’s Founder and CEO. Schmidt founded LifeWave in 2002 as a research company based on a newly patented technology for enhancing health through a novel form of phototherapy he had invented.

The United States Navy recognized Schmidt’s innovative work and invited him to join an elite research team that developed mini-subs or midget submarines. Schmidt attempted to help the crew of the mini-sub stay awake without the use of drugs. He investigated natural methods for increasing the body’s energy. Three years of research led to the creation of the Energy Enhancer Patch, the first LifeWave prototype.

LifeWave’s flagship product is X39®, a stem cell activator patch.

She added that when you place a LifeWave X39® patch on the recommended acupressure points on your body, it will help grow your own stem cells. Most X39® product users attest that you feel the effects right away.

Immediate success
LifeWave was launched in August 2004 and was an immediate success, generating US$17 million in sales in its first year. Since then, LifeWave has grown into a multinational corporation with offices in the United States, Ireland, Taiwan and distribution in over 100 countires.

LifeWave made its way to the Philippines back in 2018 with a pre-launch in December. The grand launch happened in March 2019. However, the COVID-19 happened a year after and LifeWave’s plans had to be set aside.

LifeWave X39® is the company’s best-seller.  “It is clinically proven to provide the body with a level of health and vitality that users would not have experienced since their youth.” This advanced technology product provides health benefits like rapid pain relief, reduced inflammation, supports wound healing, energy and vitality, metal clarify, enhances sports performance, faster recovery from exercise and improved skin appearance.
