Instead of Pharmally or DOH, Roque seems to be lawyering in defense of the PPEs bought by the Duterte administration

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Shuta. Pinaglaban talaga. Haha. Parang endorser ah. Malaki yata ang bigayan.

Ibang level na talaga ang corruption sa Pinas.

I'm wondering why the office of the President is doing all these effort to explain the controversy in DOH. The particular issues were the questionable transfer of funds and the legitimacy of the procurements..

Bakit ganyang beshy, parang demo ng dressmaking contest sa isang Alternative Learning School.

Parang may something sa  intellect lang ang gagawa nyan. Parang clown na talaga sila.

Mga Sirs, sana ma demo ninyo rin kung bakit tayu umabot sa ganitong sitwasyon.:

The entire National Capital Region, except for the city of Manila, is under the highest alert level for coronavirus due to increase in new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, the Department of Health said Monday.

Huli na, may pa fashion show pa. 

Roque, sa isang tingin pa lang ay alam mo na hindi magkaparehong level ang PPE na binili noon at binili ninyo ngayon. Hindi kami maloloko ng kasinungalingan mo! 

Sabi ni Galvez tuwang tuwa ang mga users kasi malamig sa katawan dahil pumapasok ang virus este hangin sa nipis. Very convincing explanation for overpriced PPEs.

Hihirit pa eh di hamak na malayo ang kalidad ng 14M vs 8.6B. mabuti pa nga ung supplier ng PPE nung panahon ni Pinoy lumabas na at nagsalita na dumaan sa tamamg bidding. Ang supplier ni Duque asan na. Nagtatago na.

Yung PPE na binili nung panahon ni Aquino ay gawa ng 3M, so ibig sabihin made for quality use. Pero yung overpriced PPEs na binili ni Duterte ay gawang China kaya low quality lang so, wala kang aasahang tibay! Tanga I nagtatanga-tangahan talaga itong si Roquee, mababang klase ng abogado ginawang adviser kaya hayan kanda letse letse kayo! Huwag na kasi kayo maghanap ng ibang butas para malusutan nyo ang pangungulimbat ninyo ng pera ng bayan!

And you honestly think that fashion show justifies everything? 

Billions of contract have been awarded to an unqualified and shady supplier represented by shady individuals associated with the President? 

The issue is the unqualified supplier and transfer of 42 billion from DOH to PSDBM. They were procured under a company with no track record at all and newly incorporated worth billions of contracts.

Does this comparison solve the issue at hand? Why dont they just provide documents justifying the awarding of the project. There is seriously something wrong with this transaction.

Why is Roque lawyering for Lloyd Lao and Pharmally? These questionable entities are crooked enough they can't even face the public to defend their actions, but here is an official of Malacañang, using taxpayers' money/time, defending them. WHY?!!!

Teka, pang healthcare frontliners ba 'yan o pang-matador sa meat processing plant?

Sales talk Sir? Why not bringing Pharmally to the Senate hearing?

The PNoy admin supplier has already come out and answered questions. The Duterte Admin supplier are (still?) MIA even with subpoena.

Ang hirap talagang magpaliwanag kapag walang gustong maniwala sa kasinungalingan.

Stop with the deflecting. We’re more worried about the present shenanigans you’re up to which will cost us more lives.

Roque is busy justifying the corrupt practices of his boss.

Spox, why you have been lawyering with DOH? You are supposed to be speaking for the president. Tuloy, parang gusto ko nang maniwala na si Duterte ang nagpabili niyan eh.

Halata kayong magnanakaw, dahil instead of the purchaser ng DOH or yung supplier aka Pharmally, ang nagtatanggol sa purchase is the office of the Idioterte.

Hindi ka ba napapagod, Roque sa patuloy mo na pagtatakip ang mga pagnanakaw ng mga kasama mong alipores. Hindi ka ba binabangungut sa araw araw na pagsisinungaling mo sa harap ng mga Pilipino?. May pagkakataon ka para sabihin ang totoo,. o wala kang kunsensiya?

Huwag mo ng iligaw sa ibang usapan Roque, harapin na lang ninyo ang ginawa ninyong kapalpakan. Bilyones ang nawawalang pera at pera ng bayan iyon. Ilabas na lang ninyo ang mga kontrata at resibo sa pinagbilhan ninyo ang mga PPE's facemask, face shield at kung ano-ano pa. Hindi na nahiya ang gobyernong ito sa panloloko sa maraming pilipino. Ginagawang bobo ni Roque ang maraming pilipino. Hindi lahat ng mga Pilipino ay bobo.

Tanginang mindset yan.

"Pwede kami maging corrupt kasi mas corrupt naman dati."

Ulol nandyan kayo kasi sabi niyo pag naamoy niyo yung corrupt, tatanggalin niyo diba? 

Ikaw Roque tumataba ka na dahil pinagpalit mo ang lahat ng values mo para maging sunud-sunuran saga dati mong kalaban.

Ito lang ang masasabi namin: "Dalawang kilo nga pong liempo, at saka kalahating kilong giniling. At saka po ya'ng skinless longganisa padamay na din ng isang tali." Salamat😁

Living With It Sweetly: Healthy Ways to Control Your Diabetes

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Diabetes has been a bitter pill to swallow, particularly for countries affected by the rising number of cases every year. In 2019, approximately 463 million adults (20-79 years) were living with this chronic metabolic disease, characterized by an increase in blood sugar levels; by 2045, this will rise to 700 million, according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). 

 

A similar trend is also happening in the Philippines. In 2020, deaths due to Type 2 diabetes mellitus or adult diabetes ranked fourth at 37,265 after heart disease (99,680), cancer (62,289), and cerebrovascular diseases (59,736), as revealed by Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) data. 

However, having diabetes does not mean you can never have a healthy, everyday life.  

 

Working closely with your doctor can help you manage diabetes, and you can also start focusing on some critical changes in your daily life. Here are some ways to manage your blood sugar levels, as listed by the Department of Health (DOH).  

 

Keep yourself active. Despite being inside your home most of the time due to existing lockdowns and community quarantines, staying active is crucial to help control your blood sugar levels. A little cardio can be a big help, no need to push yourself to do hardcore workouts. 

 

Workout at least three times a week for at least 30 minutes each session. Not only can it help you bring down your blood sugar levels, but it can also help you lose some extra pounds, increase your endorphins (happy hormones) and ease stress.  

 

Manage your stress. Getting stressed when you have diabetes will do you no good. When you’re stressed, your blood sugar levels go up. That is why it pays to relieve your stress by doing hobbies that relax you and doing some breathing exercises or yoga. 

 

Quit Smoking. Smoking is harmful to your health, especially if you have diabetes. In addition, it may trigger other health problems, such as heart disease, eye disease, stroke, and kidney disease. Smoking also can make it harder to exercise. If you’re a smoker, consult with your doctor about the ways to quit. 

 

Maintain normal blood pressure. Since hypertension puts a person at high risk of cardiovascular disease, primarily associated with diabetes, reliable blood pressure monitoring and control is highly advised. Seek your doctor’s advice on proper management. 

 

Eat healthy. Eating healthy food is crucial when you have diabetes. Do not skip or delay meals since it causes fluctuations in blood sugar levels. It also pays to eat more fiber-rich foods like vegetables and cut down on salt. Drinking alcohol, on the other hand, must be avoided. Dietary guidelines recommend no more than two drinks for men and not more than one drink per day for women. 

 

‘Eating Sweets? Still Possible’ 

When it comes to eating sweets, it is advised to avoid simple sugars like cakes and chocolates. But it does not mean that you can’t let anything sweet pass your lips again. Instead, have complex carbohydrates like rice, pasta, cereals, and fresh fruits.  

 

You can use some alternative sweeteners now available in nearby drugstores nationwide. For instance, Santé, a premier natural and organic health and wellness product and services provider,  offers Sweet Via, a sweetener from a natural source with amazing health benefits. 

 

Sweet Via is made with stevia, a natural substitute for sugar, derived from the leaves of a small perennial green shrub. Anyone who suffers from blood sugar disorders or who needs to limit their caloric intake should know about the remarkable properties of stevia. It is an accepted sugar substitute that can contribute to weight management and improved caloric control.[1] 

 

Aside from stevia, Sweet Via contains Inulin, a natural soluble dietary fiber from a chicory plant that promotes digestive health. It acts as food for good bacteria in the colon. Studies also suggest that Inulin aids in keeping blood sugar levels low.[2] 

 

Free from artificial additives, Sweet Via turns sweets into a treat without the guilt. It is also a perfect sweetener for not only for people with diabetes but also perfect for weight watchers and those who want to cut down on their sugar or calorie intake.  

 

Sweet Via is now available in leading drugstores nationwide and online shopping platforms, such as Shopee and Lazada. This product comes in a box containing 10 sachets. Each sachet contains 1g of the sweetener, equivalent to 2 teaspoons of sugar. It instantly sweetens any beverage and food recipe minus the guilt and harmful effects of too much sugar. 

 

This product is just one of the many other organic health and wellness products offered by Santé, known for developing a comprehensive selection of everyday barley-based products. They are designed to improve people’s quality of life so they can live more and do more.
