Glorious Blend Ice Tea No Sugar Added | PR Post | MarkMyName

PH’s 1st Stevia grower-manufacturer launches No Sugar iced tea mixes

GIDC, The Stevia Company, and maker of Glorious products, is bringing no sugar iced tea mixes in major supermarkets and groceries! Consumers who cuts on sugar in their diet can now enjoy low calorie, no sugar iced tea mixes that are sweetened by natural alternatives. 

 

Glorious Blend Lemon Iced Tea, Red Tea and Cucumber Lemonade that are sweetened iced tea mixes without sugarare especially produced for people who are cutting and avoiding food and drinks with too much sugar.

 

Glorious Blend iced tea mixes are naturally sweetened with stevia. The mixes are made from premium ingredients that include mixed berries, real black tea leaves, lemon, and real cucumber. It is low in calorie and loaded with vitamin C.

 

“Stevia has been regarded as a safe and healthy sugar substitute. It can sweeten foods, and it has several health benefits, including decreased calorie intake, lower blood sugar levels, and less risk of cavities,” said Maura De Leon, the woman behind GIDC, the country’s first FDA registered stevia grower and manufacturer.

 

Before, stevia was restricted to the health food market without any FDA approval. However, it is now widely used as a natural substitute for artificial sweeteners in many products. 

 

While it has zero calories, stevia is 200 times sweeter than refined sugar and does not affect blood sugar. It is a popular option for people looking to lose weight but who want to reduce their sugar intake. 

 

Stevia is an herb that has been grown in tropical climates for centuries. It is a small bushy plant that belongs to the sunflower family and grows in Paraguay and Brazil, but it can be quickly grown elsewhere. For centuries, the people of Paraguay add them to their foods as sweeteners, and countries like Korea, Brazil, China, Japan, and South America, have long used stevia.

 

Stevia is now being widely used as a natural sweetener in various food preparations.

 

People who have diabetes can benefit from stevia. Choosing pure stevia extract can help maintain normal blood sugar levels and should be used in moderation. Stevia can also help cut down added sugar consumption, which can be beneficial for children. High sugar intake in children could lead to heart disease due to reconstructing triglyceride and cholesterol levels, contributing to children's weight gain. Substituting added sugar for stevia can minimize these risks. At the same time, moderate consumption of foods with stevia and other sweeteners can prevent adverse side effects and promote overall health.

 

Stevia products such as iced tea mixes, healthy coffees and chocolate beverages manufactured by Glorious, are approved safe by the Food and Drug Association (FDA) for pregnant women or people who have diabetes. 

 

Incidentally, all Glorious Blend beverages -- from the 3in1coffee, 4in1 Malunggay mix, 5in1 Brown Rice Coffee, 7-in-1 Mangosteen-Malunggay Coffee, 7in1Native Cacao Choco and Maxitrim with L-Carnitine, use Stevia which has no calories, no carbohydrates, and zero glycemic index. All of their instant drinks will keep you alert and energized throughout the day.

Surviving the Pandemic with Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Savings | PR Post | MarkMyName

 Two mothers speak on how micro savings has become their 

dependable ally during these trying times

The uncertainties that came with the global health pandemic led to financial stress that altered the lifestyle of many Filipinos. For close to two years since the global COVID-19 pandemic started, many lost their jobs and had to make do with what little savings they have stashed away. 

A study titled, “State of Banking and Financial Wellness” commissioned by US-based research firm Forrester, indicated that more than half of Filipinos identified building their savings as one of their top concerns when it comes to personal finance. 

The desire to have money safely stashed when rainy days come, is one that is shared by every Filipino—regardless of stature in life or the money they earn. When COVID-19 hit, majority of Filipinos were left without a stable means of livelihood as the strict lockdown badly affected the economy, leading to a significant number of business closures and an uncertain future for those engaged in the gig economy. 

Stemming from its desire to push for financial inclusion for every Filipino, Cebuana Lhuillier Bank partnered with Cebuana Lhuillier, one of the country’s leading micro financial service providers, to introduce Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Savings in 2019. Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Savings provided Filipinos with an accessible and convenient means to save their hard-earned money by addressing the common barriers in saving, including lack of accessibility, the need for numerous documentary requirements, and the high cost of a starting and maintaining a balance.

“Our main priority is to be a one-stop shop for the micro financial needs of our kababayans. With our commitment of financial inclusion and mobility for everyone, Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Savings account is one of the great products we have created to empower many of our kababayans to save, regardless of their status in life,” Cebuana Lhuillier President and CEO Jean Henri Lhuillier said.

The promise of having money saved in times of need was what inspired Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Savings account holders Pillilia Pardo and Maria Luisa Luna to open a savings account and work hard to build a comfortable fund that they can rely on when needed. 

Pillilia Pardo, 79-year-old, sari-sari store owner from Las Pinas and a loyal micro savings account holder, dreams of imparting the value of savings to her children.

Pillilia, a 79-year-old sari-sari store owner in Las Pinas, makes sure to deposit a fraction of her daily earnings into her micro savings account. With her store located right beside the Cebuana Lhuillier Casimiro branch, she has become a daily fixture for the branch personnel who assists her on her everyday transactions.  

“Napakahalaga ng savings, kasi pag dumating ang pagkakataon na ikaw ay magigipit, kailangan mo ng pera. Kung mayroon kang ipon, anytime puwede ka makapag-withdraw,” shares the septuagenarian. When the pandemic hit, Pillilia used her micro savings account to augment her day-to-day expenses, which included medicines, food, utilities, and rent. When the lockdowns affected her store’s earnings, she was comforted by the fact that she did not have to resort to borrowing money in order to get by. “Hindi ka magsisisi kung nakapag-ipon ka…anytime nangailangan, nandiyan ang ipon ko. Mayroon akong magagamit,” she adds.

Saving In The New Normal | PR Post | MarkMyName

 

Iba ang may Ipon, I'm sure one way or another, na experience mo na ang mangailangan ng pera at may hinugot ka dahil kahit malilit na halaga nagtabi ka, religiously. It's a little bothering that its only 53% of adult population has savings according to Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas in 2019. Saving is the process of putting cash/money and parking it in a safe place and can be accessed easily when needed. 

Kaya Tara! mag ipon tayo!

Here is a quick and ironic tip para kahit paano makapag ipon.

October 31, 2021, is WORLD SAVINGS DAY - is a dedicated time frame where financial institutions whether public or private including financial advocates can gather and promote saving mobilization. The idea is clear - saving is for every Juan!

Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Savings is the perfect answer to the World Savings Day call to save more, especially for our fellow Filipinos who don't have the means to save. 

You can open Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Savings account for as low as P50.00 and a low maintaining balance of P500 only. Transact, deposit, and withdraw just like any saving bank to 2,500 Cebuana Lhuillier nationwide. It also offers a competitive interest rate of 0.20% higher than other savings accounts can provide. Here are more reasons to motivate you to start saving.

Reach financial freedom.

As they say, this is the ultimate goal. Isn't it beautiful to wake up each day free from worries about finances? It might require a lot of discipline and practice but surely it is possible. 

Be prepared in case of emergencies.

Always keep a portion of your income for your emergency fund. We don't know what will happen tomorrow and so preparation is key

Reach a financial or personal milestone.

By creating a specific goal and timeline, this motivation is very effective for me or many millennials to save.

Not to miss an opportunity.

Without savings, you might be missing a lot of opportunities to achieve more life goals. Even opportunities to earn more especially if you're trying to start a business or invest in stocks or any passive income there may be.

With all those motivations, here are a few more tips so you can start savings:

Review your finances. Know your net worth. List all your assets and liabilities.

Make a budget. Do proper allocation of your income. Identify areas where you can spend less and/or spend more.

Track your spending. Make a journal of your expenses. Subconsciously by doing so, you can cut down your expenses. Kakiebo way of Japanese :)

Cut back on unnecessary expenses. Omit unmaximized subscriptions and research for alternatives that would give you some benefits but probably lower cost.

Learn to live within your means. This, I learned while we are in quarantine. I only got to spend on things I needed. No, weekend night outs and no extra or side trips in malls.

Set saving goals. Keep it SMART. Specific. Measurable. Attainable. Realistic. Time-bound.

Start small and make it a habit. You don't need to cut so big it will dent your financial flow. Consistency is key.

Join a challenge. Another clever way to promote savings among your friends family members is to create a spirit of saving influence. Make it a weekly challenge to save a portion of the money.

Increase your income. As they say, during this pandemic and while we have more time to learn and earn might as well do side hustles to save money.

I hope you find inspirations and useful tips on how to save and be able to reach your financial goals.
