Healthy Finds by Eunice and Kirby

09/06/2024

Sunday Spiritual Nourishment brought to you Healthy Finds by Eunice and Kirby.💁🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♂️

So there’s this pop up bookstore right outside church at super sale itong mga interesting books na ito. Perfect for that spiritual health refueling—Healthy find Christian books about parenting and leadership (How to multiply leaders effectively).🤓❤️

I so need this where I am at now—juggling parenting to 4 kids and building a team amd developing leaders.💪🏼

I got these three. Still thinking about it though kung ipamimigay ba because I need it too. 🤭💕

And it just so happened that this woman right here praised my seemingly young looks that looks single daw and doesn’t look like 40s 🥰
(Thank you naman po 🤭).

Sabi ko na God’s grace lang talaga and of course healthy eating. Which incidentally, her daughter does also dahil may mga bawal kainin…and her name is Eunice too.❤️ So mag papaka-healthy na rin daw siya, follow niya raw itong page natin.🥰

So feeling ko God’s design talaga at napa-book shopping tuloy ako kasi P300 each lang sila.

Thank you Lord for leadings like this. Perfect time again to spread the word to living healthy, one person at a time. 💕☝️

It’s such a rewarding experience to see people enjoy a better quality of life in health and in wealth.

Thank you Lord for continuously being a channel of blessing to more and more Filipinos.💕🙏

A lot of people wonder how we unbelievably manage to choose healthier options.

“Hindi niyo ba namimiss?”
“Buti natitiis niyo.”
“Galing niyo naman.”

Our motivation mainly is when Kirby and I experienced being put in life and death situations, and we know we have 4 very young kids depending on us. Isn’t that enough reason to make things better the next time around?

Baka sabihin ni Lord, “Anak naman, bingyan na nga kita ng pangalawang pagkakataon, ang tigas pa rin ng ulo mo.”

Wala naman talaga kami pakialam before. Because our mindset was, “hindi naman siguro mangyayari satin yun.”

But it did.

And it can happen to anyone.

Taken from RDR’s interview of now viral Lifestyle Medicine Doctor, Dr. Johann Mañez:

RDR: “Hindi baleng maiksi ang buhay ko, naenjoy ko naman ang mga pagkaing kinakain ko.”

Dr. Mañez: Sinasabi nila yan kapag wala pa silang sakit (or hindi pa malubha for that matter). Pero pag may sakit na sila at kinakausap na naming mga doktor, siyempre ang sagot, “Gusto ko pang mabuhay Doc. Gawin niyo lahat ng gagawin niyo para mabuhay pa ko.”

If you’re especially a parent to young kids or mothering in whatever way, you know what I mean.

Dahil para sa kanila invincible tayo, superhero ng buhay nila.

Yes, we are humans, we all will perish. But don’t let them down sooner than they think.

The best thing about what we do is actually seeing people transition to choosing the healthier path and experiencing positive results from it.💚 Ito talaga ang nagpapakilig samin.🤩

Meet Ms. May Macalima. The existing health issues in their entire family have finally convinced her to explore plant-based and low carb diet, realizing that there are a lot of options after all because of the growing living-healthier-market.

RESULT: ALL LAB TESTS NOW NORMAL! No more maintenance meds for uric acid and cholesterol. Hypertension meds reduced to one. Praise God indeed!🙏

She now also patronizes our favorites: The Vegan Grocer Ph and Shaka Cafes for their go-to foods 🥰 as well as taking oral stem cells from Elixir Placenta Oral Stem Cell - Global Distributor 🧬💚

Buhay ng tao dapat 120 YEARS!? 🤔 Paano ba tayo aabot jan?

❤️🥹 Just whispered a prayer for this boy and these kids.

Having gone through a series of health issues in our family, this hits straight to the core.

The support that these people, and a community can give to people like them is priceless.

We speak from experience. From our hearts. As I am once again reminded of the immense support we got ourselves.

Walang katumbas.

That’s why here we are continuously paying it forward.

Even to the point of doing a business out of this advocacy.

Yes, some might be skeptical.

It’s unfathomable why people from the healthcare industry seem to think that one is better than the other when we all have a common goal…TO BE WELL AND TO HAVE A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE.

No debates. No arguments.

We had 9 doctors which includes specialists, integrative, holistic, naturopath, lifestyle and wellness doctors. And thanks to all of them. And to a whole “village” who helped us offline and online.

If it weren’t for all of them, we might not be here today.

To all those who doubted the methods and protocols we did, here we are in front of you.

When all else fails, walang mawawala kung susubukan mo lahat ng pwedeng makatulong kaysa magduda. Kaysa mahuli ang lahat. Kaysa magsisi sa huli. Dahil walang katumbas na halaga ang buhay na pwedeng mawala sa isang iglap…

These kids had to suffer at a very young age.

How old are you?

You are beyond blessed.

That’s why do everything possible to take care of that one life that has been given to you.

While you still can.

This is great news to the community! Chef has showcased that plant-based food is beyond the ordinary! May more Chefs be inspired to explore on creating plant-based dishes 😍

Sharing post from : “After making history as the first plant-based contestant ever to feature on the programme, has scooped the top accolade in the Great British Menu finals.⁠
⁠
After wowing judges in the qualifying rounds, Kirk was tasked with creating the dessert for the show’s final banquet. His winning dish, called ‘A Taste of Unity’, boasted a cacao gateaux with a sour cherry and toasted macadamia topping, served with coconut blossom ice cream, African pepper, and vanilla caramel sauce.⁠
⁠
The impressive dessert was praised by judge Tom Kerridge, who said: “That desert was a knockout 10 out of 10, I’m so proud of all of the chefs, but for Kirk I’m double pleased.” ⁠
⁠
Discussing his win, Kirk (who is co-founder of ) said: “I’ve dreamt of this moment since I was a little boy, so this is literally a dream come true for me.”⁠

Wherever you are now, I pray that the Lord will open a way for you. And we know HE will. He definitely will. Just like what He did when the Israelites were at the dead end…

Who would think na biglang mahahati ang dagat sa gitna ng kawalan. Ridiculous right? But it did!

“Even when I don’t see it, you’re working
Even when I don’t feel it, you’re working
You never stop, you never stop working

Waymaker, miracle worker, promise keeper
Light in the darkness
My God, that is who you are.”

—Waymaker, by Leeland

Noah built an ark out of nowhere.
God impressed something in him and he felt he just needed to obey.

Kahit na pinagtatawanan na siya na akala ng mga tao nababaliw na siya sa pinagagawa niya. He just obeyed.

Everyone didn’t believe him.

It was just him and his family.

And literally, it was just him and his family who lived in the end.

Out of EVERYONE in the world.

Trust and obey.
Ituloy mo lang yan.
And you will experience the fullness and blessing of God’s goodness in your life.

Ka-healthies, your spiritual health matters too.

For it’s that aspect that will keep yourself together when everything else is falling apart.

Some sugar free snacks for our princess’s baon 😋

“Recent studies have shown that Type 1 diabetes is increasing in the pediatric population. Right now, approximately one out of every 400 children is diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, which makes it a fairly common disease. The other main form of diabetes, Type 2, is also becoming more common in children, and is likely related to increased body weight.”

Yes, your mental health matters as it affects your overall well-being. A lot. It may be hormonal which creates a domino effect on your organs and systems. And because stressors such as fear, anxiety, depression and the likes produce free radicals which create oxidative stress, it could manifest physiologically through different ailments or chronic diseases.

Mahigpit na yakap sa yo.

HE loves you dearly.

Hinding-hindi ka Niya iiwan sa ere.

WHAT IF INIWAN KA SA ERE?

Nanay ka, of course kulang ka lagi sa tulog.😴

Once you become a mom, sleep becomes a luxury. But it shouldn’t be.

Big factor to achieving optimum health is sleep. This I admit, I need to work on…You know us moms, we can only do our thing once the household is asleep. And it always seems like 24 hours is not enough.

But seriously though, lack of sleep greatly affected my thyroid and cardiovascular health back then (thus my borderline heart attack).

Did you know that the “physiological changes during sleep are believed to promote a suitable microenvironment for stem cells to proliferate, migrate and differentiate?”

“Between the times of 10:00 pm and 2:00 pm the body goes through a dramatic process of physical repair. Between roughly 2:00 am and 6:00 am the body will go through a process of psychological repair. A disrupted sleep pattern will cause the Cortisol to elevate and negatively affect the regenerative process.”

There’s so much health concerns associated with poor sleeping habits—hormonal, cardiovascular, mental, physiological, and the list goes on and on. It’s a domino effect of everything.

Thankful for this pillow though, from Artist Na Walang Ruler. When I saw this, alam ko na, para sakin talaga ‘to.😴❤️‍🩹

This is the Lord reminding me again and again...

“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price.Therefore honor God with your bodies.”

—1 Corinthians 6:19-20

Sorry na po Lord, eto na matutulog na 😬✌️

Biological age: 40
Skin age: 34

This skin analyzer says it all!🤷🏼‍♀️
Numbers don’t lie 🥰

If I could’ve been getting enough sleep every night, (yes, still working on this area) most probably the skin age would come out even lower. As eyebags and eye wrinkles affect the numbers greatly.

My secrets?

As much as possible…
📌 Veggies, veggies, and more veggies (Thanks to Kadiwa and The Vegan Grocer Ph for all the haul)
📌 No pork, no beef. Minimal chicken and fish
📌 No gluten
📌 No refined sugar
📌 Very minimal to almost no dairy (‘cause there are times foods from outside contain cheese/cream)
📌 No caffeine, no sodas, no artificial juices
📌 2-3 liters of water with sea salt daily
📌 No iodized salt, patis, soy sauce, and alamang/bagoong (we only use sea salt and coco aminos)
📌 No preservatives & artificial flavorings
📌 No white rice. Adlai/ brown rice only
📌 Detox
📌 Turmeric & guyabano tea almost every night (plus other herbal teas like peppermint, chamomile, lavender, lemongrass, hibiscus, mixed berries, etc)
📌 The right supplements (‘cause nutrients from cooked food are not absorbed 100%)
📌 Oral stem cell ℅ Elixir Placenta Oral Stem Cell - Global Distributor
📌 Game-changer skincare regimen with exosomes and NMN (the holy grail of anti-aging), thanks to Exo Celestial - Global Distributor

Need we say more?😉

Hello Ka-healthies!

Join us in our journey to striving to live healthier lives as we share healthy foods and options plus tips and other essential information that personally worked for us through the years. We’re still a work in progress though. But we can say that we’ve come a long way from where we started a few years back.

We were adventurous food seekers to the point na as long as its edible, go kami jan! Not until tinapik kami ni Lord and gave us a second shot in life.

So our new adventure begins…

Who says eating healthy can’t be fun? It’s actually the contrary! As there are so much options out there! So, tara?😉
