Diabetic patients may most likely lose the sweetness in their smile. In the Philippines, there are more than 3.4 million Filipinos diagnosed with diabetes and this number is projected to grow to 6.16 million in 2030. While these people are also two to four times more likely to die of heart disease than people without diabetes, they are likewise candidates for a severe gum disease. Diabetic patients endure the unsweetened taste of food. While they keep their blood sugar under control, they are at an increased risk of periodontal disease, which causes the teeth to wear off. According to the Department of Health, nine out of ten Filipinos are suffering from periodontal disease, a severe form of gum disease that tends to pull the teeth away from the gums. Also known as periodontitis, this manifests through excessive plaque formation, bad breath, painful chewing, swelling of the gums, and bleeding of the gums during flossing or brushing. When periodontitis occurs, the gum in...

A life without challenges is a life wasted. That's why... I'm pretty sure you have seen  Dove's TV commercial  . Where 3 ladies where put to a 7 day challenge. No mirrors and only a bar soap to wash their face. The thing is you can really get healthy looking skin with just some good old-fashioned soap and water. Our family's been using Dove for quiet sometime. Sensitive skin unscented for the kiddos for their sensitive and asthma prone skin. Gentle exfoliating beauty bar for me. Even before, when I used to live in Tagaytay for 3 yrs, I use Dove because the cold weather dries up my skin, I need to use too much lotion and moisturizer to hydrate my skin. Since I moved to Manila and the "in-thing" is a whitening soap, "peer pressure " strikes. So I started using whitening soap. But during the cold season, I would switch back to Dove to prevent my skin from drying. Lately, been doin a review of a whitening soap (not the brand I always post on...

Since September is Alopecia awareness month and Regroe is celebrating their 28 Years of hair growing tradition, Minoxidil Regroe is giving a FREE hair and scalp analysis from September 17-23 at SM Megamall Bldg to know more about the condition of your hair and scalp using their multidermascope. Alopecia also known as spot baldness, is an AUTOIMMUNE disease in which hair is lost from some or all areas of the body, usually from the scalp due to the body's failure to recognize "self" and destroys its own tissue as if it were an invader. Alopecia areata (photo from the web) Shedding around 50 to 100 strands a day is normal. Each strand lost is replaced by new hair from the same follicle located just beneath the skin surface. While shedding is a normal phenomenon, a combination of factors such as heredity and hormonal activity can come into play causing hair follicles to shrink. Over time, this progressive shrinking of hair follicles leads to shortening of the ...

Alopecia areata? Hair shedding? Hormonal issues? Losing your hair is perfectly normal - we shed up to 100 hairs a day - but for some people hair loss is much more serious and it's affecting a growing number of men and women under 40. The most common type of hair loss can be triggered by life changing events such as stress, a bereavement or pregnancy, leading to overall thinning of the hair. If you've noticed gradual thinning or found clumps of hair on the bathroom floor it can come as a shock. But don't fret ladies amd gentlemen because Minoxidil Regroe is the answer for all your hair concerns. The growth of each hair follicle normally occurs in a cycle. The three main phases of the hair growth cycle are anagen, catagen, and telogen. Anagen is the active growth phase when hairfiber is produced. Catagen is the transitional stage when hair growth stops. The hair remains attached to the root of the follicle. While Telogen is the resting stage when the sheddi...
