Meeting Ms. Samantha Clayton had helped me personally with a lot of knowledge about proper exercise and simple ways to exercise without even getting my butt in the gym especially with a person like me who's always going from different events. I don't seldom get the chance to sweat and workout, my workout is walking and walking and walking even running and hurrying up to get to events. But of course that is not enough and sometimes whenever we're in events I can't manage to control myself from eating without even thinking what the food that I ate. I realized I can do simple exercise even if I'm at home Ms. Samantha alone is a living proof that it I possible to stay physically fit and healthy at the same time. Maybe what I really needed to do all of her advises and shared knowledge is one thing DISCIPLINE. Yes, discipline because if I can master it for sure I could reach my goal of becoming fit and healthy at the same time then everything is will follow....

Premier global nutrition company, Herbalife Nutrition has released findings from its Asia Pacific Healthy Aging Survey, which uncovered insights into the aging-related concerns and attitudes of consumers in the region. Conducted with 6,000 respondents aged 40 and above across 12 countries in Asia Pacific, including 500 from Philippines, the survey revealed that while majority of consumers are concerned about the potential health issues caused by aging and believe that active steps can be taken to help them age healthily, many of them underestimate the importance of nutrition in healthy aging.

According to the survey findings, 96% of Filipino-respondents are concerned about the potential health issues caused by aging, citing heart-related, bone/joint-related, eye-related issues topping their list of concerns. However, despite the high levels of concern, 94% of respondents agree that they can take active steps to help age healthily.

Besides revealing insights into the aging-related health concerns and the steps that Filipino consumers are most willing to take to prevent them, the survey also uncovered the following:

• When asked about their perception of the state of their own health, the majority – 87% of the respondents consider themselves equally healthy or more healthy than others. 
• However, for heart, emotional and mental health where early signs of anomalies are not easily detected, they displayed higher levels of confidence in the state of their well-being, with 91%, 92%, and 97% of respondents considering themselves equally healthy or more healthy than others respectively, putting them at risk of overestimating the state of their own health.
• When asked about the biggest obstacles towards healthy aging, lack of time, cost, and lack of motivation were generally seen as the biggest obstacles toward healthy aging.

Among the steps that the Filipino-respondents will take to age healthily, 40% of respondents will most likely engage in the more regular physical activity. In comparison, only 32% of respondents said they will most likely make better nutrition choices, five percent (5%) said they will take supplements, and nine percent (9%) will go for more regular medical check-ups.
