Health experts and representatives from Pasig and Quezon City Local Government Units (LGU) gathered at the latest Health Connect Media Forum to underscore the urgent need to strengthen maternal health and childcare in the Philippines.

The Philippines is yet to achieve its goal relating to the reduction of maternal death rates, which is hindering progress toward health and well-being commitments. In 2021, maternal deaths increased to 189 per 100,000 live births, the third-highest rate in nearly 70 years, behind only Cambodia and East Timor in the region.[ Inquirer. Philippines’ maternal mortality rate worse than reported. Available at https://opinion.inquirer.net/162254/philippines-maternal-mortality-rate-worse-than-reported. Date Accessed June 20, 2024.]

Pre- and post-natal vaccinations, like influenza and Tdap, are crucial for maternal healthcare, protecting mothers and newborns from preventable diseases. Despite their proven efficacy, current legislation is yet to recognize these vaccines for pregnant women as a key opportunity to improve maternal health outcomes in the country.

In response to these pressing issues, Senator Mark Villar, the primary author of Senate Bill No. 1416 aimed at safeguarding the health of Filipino mothers during childbirth, expressed his support through a video message. He affirmed his commitment to championing maternal and child care for every mother and child in need, reiterating his role as an ally for maternal legislation in Congress.

Dr. Ma. Lorena Santos, President of the Philippine Obstetrical and Gynecological Society (PIDSOG) highlighted their active engagement with legislators and policymakers to promote comprehensive maternal health programs. "House Bill 9354 is currently in its second reading in the House of Representatives. We are optimistic about its progression to the final reading. We are coordinating closely with our Senate counterparts as they collaborate with the House."

Senator Loren Legarda filed a Resolution for the Senate to investigate, in aid of legislation, the recent series of child rape to strengthen the implementation of laws against it.

"We are very concerned with the alarming increase of child rape cases, especially that many of the perpetrators are relatives of the victims, trusted individuals," Legarda said.

"We need to find out whether our current laws are enough or are even being properly implemented to punish the guilty, protect the victims, and empower the state to help the victims recover anew," she added.

It may be recalled that the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) released a statement strongly condemning reported rape cases involving children.

The CHR also emphasized that the cases are a grave violation of human rights and stressed the need for effective protective measures for children.

According to the Child Protection Network Foundation, Inc. (CPN), 2,890 of the 4,079 child violence cases reported from January 1 to May 26, 2024, were sexual abuse/assault.

"We are seeking for Congress to pass Senate Bill No. 2401, which we filed, to institutionalize the establishment of Women and Children Protection Units in all government hospitals," asserted Legarda.

"We are also seeking to assess if the substantial amount spent regularly on gender issues is making a significant impact on the most critical issues on gender and child rights," she added.

Legarda, who pushed for the passage of numerous laws championing women's and children's rights, called for better implementation of them, such as the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act and the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act.

Also sought to be implemented properly are the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act and its expanded version, and An Act Promoting for Stronger Protection Against Rape and Sexual Exploitation and Abuse, Increasing the Age for Determining the Commission of Statutory Rape.

Mr. Eric Alberto, CEO, DITO Telecommunity, Marian Rivera, Dingdong Dantes and Ms. Evelyn Jimenez, Chief Revenue Officer-Consumer, DITO Telecommunity

In a significant leap forward of being the Rated # 1 Mobile Network in the Philippines, DITO Telecommunity, the fastest-growing telecom provider in the country, proudly launches its newest campaign, DITO SA PUSO KO, featuring Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, the stars of the top-grossing Filipino film of all time - Rewind. This campaign celebrates their love for DITO with all the DITOZENS who motivate DITO's constant pursuit of excellent customer satisfaction and digital innovations.

Renowned for their charm and charisma on and off screen, DITO brings in Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, the stars of Rewind, as the power couple behind this new and exciting chapter in DITO's journey.

"Launching this campaign with Dingdong and Marian, the newest members of the DITO family, is a pivotal move to encourage more Filipinos to experience our next-generation technology.

This scene reflects the journey of DITO; through the power of high-speed connectivity and value-for-money products, along with the DITOzens' constant support and trust, DITO is now loved by millions of subscribers nationwide.

"At the outset, breaking into the market was a really a daunting challenge, specially amidst the long-standing duopoly. We needed to fight for our place on the table and establish who we are as a telco brand and what we really value as a company. Armed with a customer-centric mentality and a passion to make a difference , DITO thrived and flourished. We only started with thousands of subscribers, and now, after three years, we have millions of DITOzens who love and trust our brand and our products. And because of that, we are really grateful." Jimenez added.

Embracing this milestone and embarking on a new chapter with Dingdong and Marian is not merely a measure of success but a call to further elevate DITO's standards.

"As we embrace this achievement with grateful hearts, we also acknowledge that this is just the beginning of our journey. Moving forward, we remain steadfast in our commitment to provide, consistent customer satisfaction, value-driven products, and inclusive next-generation technology for the Filipino people," Jimenez concluded.

As 70% of the body’s immunity comes from the gut, proper and proactive gut care has never been more crucial for the everyday Filipino.

"The rapidly changing weather and rising levels of stress can take a toll on our immune system,” Rica Mateo, ASEA Erceflora Zone Brand Lead said. “This is why, keeping our gut strong and healthy is no longer an option, it’s a necessity for Filipinos who want to thrive in their day-to-day.”

Thus, the world’s #1 probiotic brand previously known as “Erceflora Kiddie”, is evolving to meet the needs of kids and adults of all ages with a thrilling relaunch as “Erceflora” during its on-ground installation of “GutVenture: An Immersive Experience” at the Glorietta Activity Center.

During the launch, Erceflora introduced its two newest variants made with the same Bacillus Clausii, “Gut Defense” for daily use which aids to enhance intestinal ecology, and “Gut Restore” which helps enhance the body’s natural resistance to gut infections, best taken when symptoms arise.

“This new chapter for Erceflora signifies our commitment to provide Filipinos with the supplements they need to holistically care for their gut and take more proactive steps in achieving lifelong wellness,” Mateo underscored.

GutVenture: a one-of-a-kind gut journey

GutVenture is an immersive, multi-sensory experience that brings the wonders of probiotics to life. Each guest embarking on this journey is set to learn more about gut health and wellness by exploring a series of interactive exhibits, educational visuals, and hands-on activities.

The experience starts at the “GutVenture Lounge”, where guests are welcomed by taking an online gut assessment test that allowed them to learn more about their gut health needs, tagging them as either a “Gut Defender”, who enjoys a balanced gut brought about by healthy choices, or a “Gut Restorer”, who often feels sick from symptoms of gut imbalance.

Next, they are led to the “Gut Tunnel”, a true-to-life simulation of the probiotics’ effect on the gut, showing that Bacillus clausii probiotics have the power to reach the gut alive, multiply, restore the gut to its natural balance, and protect the body against bad bacteria overall, emphasizing that a “stronger gut makes for a stronger you”.

Then, the “Spores To Life” animated exhibit features the right Erceflora probiotic for each guest. For Gut Defenders looking to maintain a stronger gut barrier, the daily use of Erceflora Gut Defense helps maintain good gut health as it aids to the enhancement of the gut flora. While for Gut Restorers seeking urgent treatment, Erceflora Gut Restore aids the body’s natural resistance to gut infections.

The fun continues at the “Museum of Moments”, showcasing various moments of gut vulnerabilities where gut health can be compromised like going back to school, traveling on holiday, taking antibiotics, or preparing food improperly. The good news is, Erceflora can help individuals navigate these everyday challenges and maintain a healthy gut.

The journey ends at the Gut Exhibit, where guests are given a chance to interact with the brand mascots, “Baci” and “Clau”, and have their personal photos taken.

Proper gut care: the cornerstone of lifelong wellness

A balanced gut microbiome is the foundation of a holistic well-being. These bacteria play an important role in the way the body digests food, absorbs nutrients, and enables immunity.

Probiotics like Erceflora that contains billions of 4-strain Bacillius Clausii, can help the gut function properly, which can ultimately lead to improved mental health, better energy levels, and greater resilience against common illnesses.

Erceflora’s rebrand from a trusted children’s probiotic to a comprehensive gut health solution for individuals of all ages, along with the rollout of its new variants, reinforces the brand’s mission to empower Filipinos to take charge of their own health in a meaningful way.

“By providing everyone with a quick and easy solution to take their gut health seriously, we enable them to put their health in their own hands and help them to be more intentional in prioritizing their healthcare journey,” Mateo shared.

You can purchase a box of Erceflora in your nearest drug store or pharmacy, or online through the Sanofi Official Store at LazMall and Shopee Mall. For more information, visit the Erceflora website here.
