mum's thoughts, tips + tricks, health, health products

Staying in the pink of health is a lot difficult especially now that the rainy and stormy season abound. But for mums like me, it is really a must that we do stay in tip top shape, especially if we have families and little kids counting on us to prepare every bit of their needs as well as bring them to and from school. It will surely break any mother’s heart to see her child miss school because mum is not feeling well.

There are a few things mums, and dads, too, might want to consider in staying in their best form and gear up for the cold and wet months ahead:

  • Get a Flu shot ~ getting a Flu vaccine is one of the best things anyone can do to help them prepare for the rainy days when cold and cough, as well as fever, also comes in season. By taking a shot, you not only make sure that you will not get the dreaded Flu, you also ensure that you will not pass it along to your little ones.
  • Exercise ~ when the sun is out so is my energy to move about, I bet that’s the same for most people. But the rain should not stop us from moving about and stretching those muscles. Exercising is still one of the best ways to make sure we stay healthy even on the laziest and wettest months of the year.
  • Gear up for the rainy days ~ of course nothing beats being ready so make sure you dress accordingly and stash those umbrellas and raincoats, especially if you are heading out one rainy morning.
  • Eat healthy ~ now that your health is compromised because of the unfriendly weather, all the more that you need to stock up on veggies and fruits to help boost your immune system and keep you from being sick. Soups and tea are also ideal to keep you warm on cold days.
  • Take a food supplement to improve overall health ~ having good blood circulation is essential to the body. Every cell in our body needs to receive oxygen and nutrients. Blood circulation process send vitamins and minerals to the body organs, tissues and cells to nourish them. Circulan promotes good blood circulation in our body. It is a soft gel capsule that contains Hathorn Berry, Ginkgo Biloba, Garlic Oil and Lemon Balm ~ 4 herbal extracts that help promote good blood circulation and overall good health. It is also a food supplement that has FDA-approved benefits. For more than a decade now, Circulan has continuously kept its promise of good health for countless Filipino families.

Putting stock on our health should be at the top of our priorities, after all, we would love to be around much longer to be there for our little children as long as they need us, right? I know I would.

Boosting Mum’s Immunity With Conzace Multivitamins

14 Comments

Yes, mum now has a new partner in boosting her immune system with Conzace Multivitamins!

Late last year, I was able to try these vitamins {check out my post here} and after a few months, I must say that I now have a trusted and dependable partner in making sure that I am healthy all year round so that I can perform the multitude of tasks that a mum-of-a-three-year-old has to do. For starters, compared to all the doctor consultation and visits I went through last year, surprisingly, I have yet to visit a doctor this year. Needless to say, even when I have not transformed into one lean mum {which I have been dreaming of} and still struggling to lose a lot of extra pounds, I can proudly say that I am healthy and only had to deal with occasional, yet tolerable, headache and cough and cold. When I do not get sick, I get to do a lot of activities and a lot of playtime with my little man, too!

What you’ll love about Conzace

Strong white blood cells that can fight germs and viruses makes for stronger immunity

First and foremost, did you know that Conzace is the #1 Prescribed multivitamins for heavy duty immunity? With Conzace, too, you can bid goodbye to an assortment of pills that you have to take in on a daily basis. If you are just like me who are not too fond of downing one pill after another, Conzace is a god-send. It combines the following in one single soft gel capsule:

  • Vitamin C (500mg)

  • Vitamins A and E (100 IU of Vitamin E)

  • Zinc (25mg Zinc), which is higher than most popular vitamins in the Philippines have.

when our white blood cells are weak they will not be able to ward off illnesses and diseases

Secondly, These vitamins and nutrients all play a vital role in helping boost our immune system. Vitamin C develops white blood cells, while Vitamins A and E intensify their protection. Zinc, on the other hand, multiplies white blood cells to ensure that we have just the right number in our body to defend us from illnesses. A daily dose of Conzace, therefore, help boost our immune system to the maximum to prevent us from getting sick.

since we can only absorb 400g of Vitamin C, Conzace add in other important immunity nutrients to their capsule

Conzace also took advantage of the fact that our body can only take in up to 400g of Vitamin C at any given time. So instead of dosing up on more Vitamin C, they wisely added more immunity nutrients in their capsules.

Of Diets + Diet Supplements

The first quarter of the year is done but I am in no way near my target weight for this year. I cannot complain much as I know I am guilty as charged. I have not been working hard on getting regular work out and it has been ages since I hit my yoga mat. Well, my instructor is partly to blame since she has been crazy busy these past few months and we have not been having our Tuesday and Thursday classes for like ages now, even the little man is missing the Yoga center. And although I know very well that I can always do it at home, it still is different when I am doing it with someone to guide me whenever I am doing one pose wrong.

I have been meaning to do yoga at home and some running, too, but alas, it almost always feel like I do not have enough energy to do them and whenever I had the urge to, something always comes up. I am not sure if the universe is conspiring for me to not get the work out that I badly need, but I know that it is time to take matters into my hands if I’d want to lose at least a pound or two at the end of this month.

Apart from my half-sedentary life, my very enthusiastic appetite is also partly to blame for all the unwanted flab and the unsightly bump in my mid-section. It seems as if I have turned into one emotional eater and when I am feeling rather bored, I eat to pass the time, when I am feeling agitated, I find something to munch on, and when the little one is preoccupied with something else and was just leaving me to my devices, I eat. If only I could scrape the saddle bags off, I’d definitely would and if only I could suppress the more-than-willing-to-binge taste buds, believe me, I’d have done it long ago.

My sister and I even tried this food supplement late last year to aid us in our quest to lose weight to no avail. I don’t think I’d lose weight even if I put more fiber into my diet, unless I really put a curb on eating everything I fancy! I am thinking that if diets are out of the questions, maybe the best option for me will have to be diet supplements. I came across this promising weight loss supplement, activ8 x, while I was working late one night and I really thought that if ever it would come down to taking diet pills to regulate my eating, I’d definitely go for this one.

Firstly, I love that it is safe and natural as it  does not contain caffeine or other harmful chemicals unlike other slimming aids around. It contains 10  ingredients which are clinically-proven to work on the different focus areas of  weight loss.  I also like the fact that it can go well with any other diet plan one has, may that be Dukan, Atkins, Mediterranean, Southbeach or other diets, and was also proven to get rid of the lost weight for good. And since this diet supplement comes in drop forms, there are no bitter pills involved in your plans to shed the extra weight, simply drop it under your tongue and wait for the potent supplement to do its works! Brilliant, right? It even comes with a free AVX Diet plan, free worldwide shipping and a 100% money-back guarantee with every order, so what more can you really ask for? I am sold on this product that if it boils down to requiring a diet supplement to help me lose weight, I will be sure to get this one.
