Golden Fiesta Canola Oil – Because phytosterol is the key to a good heart!
Guys, honestly… “heart-friendly” is probably the last thing on your mind when you reach for the cooking oil in your kitchen shelf, am I right? It probably isn’t any wonder considering how health buffs give it a bad rap all these years. Well, I guess it’s high time to set the record straight once and for all…
So, while some cooking oils put your cardiovascular health at risk, there are actually others that provide essential good fats that our bodies need. Yup. It’s true! In fact, there are even some cooking oils that reduce your risk of having coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular ailments.
Interesting, right?

The Smile Bar in BGC – Achieve whiter teeth fast and easy!
I’ve always wanted to try having my teeth whitened. The thought of having whiter, more attractive teeth is something I have long considered. The only problem is… I’ve also always thought that teeth whitening is a tedious and painstaking procedure. So, I never really bothered to try experiencing this kind of treatment.
But, just recently, I had the wonderful opportunity to try a teeth whitening procedure at a recently opened establishment in Bonifacio Global City called, The Smile Bar.
I really didn’t know what to expect. And up until the moment that I was about to be treated, all kinds of questions were running through my head like… Was it going to take hours? Will it hurt? Would it be an unpleasant experience?
All my questions would soon be answered as I entered the friendly premises of The Smile Bar. I was greeted with warm hellos and lots of smiles — shiny white beaming smiles, in fact! There’s just something about a radiant smile that draws you in, wouldn’t you agree?
In no time, I was led into their treatment area and I was well on my way to having shinier pearly whites. Exciting!

VLOG: Ubay and Sandugo Festival 2017 – Bohol getaway (Part 1)
Oh, God…! I’ve been meaning to make this post as soon as I finish editing my entire vlog entry about my recent trip to Bohol to explore the beautiful town of Ubay and to attend the annual Sandugo Festival.
I didn’t anticipate that it would take longer than expected completing the vlog post since I had something like 5 days worth of footage to work on. Yikes!
So, instead of forcing the issue, I decided to just split the vlog entry into two parts. Pretty reasonable considering that this first part which covers day 1 upto half of day 2 is already about 20 minutes long (what???). Yup.
I had so much fun making this vlog entry mainly because I also had a great time during this particular visit. Kudos to the awesome folks from Ubay Tourism for making us feel right at home immediately.

Marshall Stanmore Review
Very rarely does one chance upon an external speaker that sounds just as amazingly good as it looks. The Marshall Stanmore is, no doubt, one of those coveted devices. Its gorgeous classic looks invoke a sense of Rock ‘n’ Roll nostalgia that just begs to be brought home the moment you lay your eyes on it. […]
NudeAudio Move L – Sound performance
The NudeAudio Move L is regarded as the BIG DADDY of the entire Move line. If you aren’t familiar with NudeAudio’s Move line, this entire family of speakers deliberately have a simple look… and with good reason. NudeAudio has allocated majority of their funds for the Move series to research and development instead of superficial […]

Just a quick review of another external power bank that I am currently using (Yes, I love external power banks… isn’t it obvious? LOL!). This new power bank I am currently using, among others, is called the “ibattz VOGUE BATTSTATION”. Don’t be fooled by it’s small size. This little baby carries 5600mAh of charging power. […]

Invest in good health by choosing Pharex
As cliche as it sounds, I cannot stress enough how true the saying is that “Health is wealth”. As a family man who watches over my wife and two teenage kids, it is important to make the health and welfare of my loved ones a top priority. I make sure that junk food is kept […]

Fern-C Sodium Ascorbate – The right kind of Vitamin C
Being a person who loves staying active and always on the go, staying healthy is of utmost importance. Yes, exercise is vital, but fueling your body to endure the demands of a physical lifestyle and occasional stress is equally needed. I’ve been in show business since I was a child. Given the kind of load […]

AcneCare Soap, AcneCare Anti-Acne Complex and AcneCare Acne Drying Lotion
Acne. One of my most dreaded problems when I was a kid. I guess most (if not all) adolescents go though this somewhat “rite of passage” in their lives, one time or another. Anyone who has gone through this frustrating and sometimes embarrassing phase in their lives would know the pains one would go through […]

Batangas Food Festival at Matabungkay Beach Hotel – A food trip like no other
The first thing that comes to mind when I hear the name “Matabungkay” is childhood memories. If you are more or less my age, living in the Philippines back in the ’80s and early ’90s, it is quite impossible not to know Matabungkay Beach Club. It is one of the most popular and notable destination […]

Denny’s Uptown Parade, BGC – All good, all day!
The first time I tried Denny’s was during my trip to Guam last year when I joined the Guam Ko’ko Road Race Marathon. I immediately fell in love with the dishes because, for one thing, the food tastes great. But another reason is because I absolutely enjoy breakfast meals — pancakes, bacon (Oh, God! The […]

Arriba, Chihuahua Mexican Grill (Greenbelt 2)!
Just had one hell of a dinner earlier at the Greenbelt 2 branch of Chihuahua Mexican Grill. Lots of laughter and food! This is one amazing place that never fails to serve good food as well as provide an amazing party atmosphere. It’s always fun when good friends (foodies, too!) get together in a place […]
Max and me in the morning
Max, our little teacup Pomeranian, always loves waking me up for a little “cuddle time” in the morning. He won’t stop bugging me until I’ve really opened my eyes and looked at him. He loves playing with my hair and ears. When he’s sure that he’s gotten my attention, he starts to cuddle up beside […]
Carwash Cardio!
So… I just finished doing an entire 30 minute cardio routine – AT THE CARWASH! How crazy is that?! LOL! The guy cleaning the car was probably wondering what I was doing running around and doing twists and jumps for an entire 30 minutes in the corner of their shop. But hey… hitting two birds […]

Hot!
Last Monday, I was able to hone my paparazzi skills during lunch at “The Old Spaghetti House” in Robinson’s Galleria. A couple arrived and took a table not even an arm’s length from us. Before they even sat down, it was obvious they were already overpowered by their raging libidos. Rawr! Seriously! Hugging-squeezing-kissing-rubbing-groping and all […]
