All Natural Seasons Juice Review

As I have always mentioned on my plant vlogs, wala namang masama kung makiusuo ka, or be updated with the latest trends. Do what makes you happy but of course without sacrificing your budget and most specially your health. Nasabi ko yan because I was like that when it comes to fruit juices, noong nauso ang mga fruit juice in can few summers ago, ang dami ko binili! Kase the flavors are really enticing only to realize later that their common ingredients is sugar! Kaya pala iba ang tamis niya.

I stopped buying fruits juices for a while because of that. But we do really love drinking something with a different taste and as much as I want to make fruit juice out of real fruits (or vegetables), my schedule won’t permit. Good thing we discovered a fruit juice that is not only has the freshest ingredients, healthy and natural pa.

Remember my guiding principle when checking the ingredients of products that claim to be healthy and natural article? When I first heard about All Natural Seasons Juice, yan ang una kong ginawa, check the label! And here’s what I found out:

Check the first 5 ingredients. Usually the first 5 ingredients make up the largest part of the food component.

All Natural Seasons Juice first five ingredients are

water,
clarified pineapple juice concentrate
pineapple juice concentrate
banana puree
ascorbic acid (Vitamin C)

Other ingredients are Stevia, natural flavor, VItamin E, and VItamin A. Based on our guiding principle, upon checking the label, All Natural Seasons Juice first five ingredients are all natural!

If an ingredients list is longer than two to three lines suggests that the product is highly processed. Pag mahaba, magduda ka na.

Second guiding principle, check the names of the ingredients! If it is two to three lines long, that suggests that the product is highly processed. Upon checking All Natural Seasons Juice list of all ingredients are short and we understand/know it all.

If an ingredient is hard to pronounce, it might not be good for you

Last but not the least and the easiest to remember, if the ingredients is hard to pronounce, it might nor be good for you. Kumusta naman ang mga ingredients ng juice natin? All Natural Seasons Juice ingredients listed are so easy to pronounce!

Indeed the freshest juice with natural ingredients is All Natural Seasons Juice.

Syempre dapat pasado sa mga kids ko specially to my teens. Sa totoo lang with the new normal, I am having a hard time with my teens in terms of managing their health. They are busier now that school are starting, busy with school activities, also busy catching up with friends (online of course). To keep up with their busy lifestyle and the fact that they love drinking flavored drinks, I gave them All Natural Seasons Juice. At pasado ang lasa sa mga teens ko! Medyo kinabahan ako kase all natural ingredients baka they would look for something sweeter, surprisingly, they love the taste of All Natural Seasons Juice Pineapple Banana Juice. Bagay din daw na shake!

Taste test, passed! How about the price? Knowing that is all natural, we can’t help but worry about the price. Minsan kase pag all natural, mas mahal di ba? Mura lang pala! I mean, I did not expect the price range being 70+ Pesos per L. Nagualt ako honestly. I was expecting it to be at 90+ Pesos range knowing that the ingredients are all natural. And it’s now available at at leading supermarkets and leading online stores!

It comes in different flavors, https://www.facebook.com/allnaturalseasons/ and https://www.instagram.com/allnaturalseasons/ kung anong flavor ang bagay sa family nyo.

Sa panahon ngayon talaga, very important that we exert more effort in giving the nutrition that our kids need to be healthier. At syempre dapat in check din ang bugdet, kaya naman let’s invite other moms to the same. Sama sama tayo and invite them to join our mommy movement- #PledgetoDoubleCheck

Natural and Healthy? Check The Label Mommies!

The new normal. How many of you have already adjusted to this thing we called the new normal? What are the things you have changed so far? I know there are many changes that is happening around us, some things that we never imagined will happen, but is already happening. As parents, as moms, the responsibility to adjust for the family is relied heavily on us. And it can be really overwhelming and can be stressful, but we will be dealing with it none the less. Tayo pa ba? Ang mga nanay walang sinusukuan yan.

Talking about dealing with it, I guess one of our biggest concerns is the health of our family. I am telling you, your concern is valid and you are not alone. Each every mom have been looking for ways to make their family healthier and with better immunity. It is in our nature to find ways, to ask around what else can we do to make our family health. Kumbaga mas naging health conscious na tayo ngayon.

Kayo ba, what are the changes that you’re doing to ensure that your family is healthy? Alam nyo kame, we have been exercising more, doing more physical activities than ever. We’re alaso trying to take advantage of the health benefits of morning sun exposure. The kids are also more involve with household chores. That’s hitting two birds in one stone! Mas nagiging responsable na sila, may physical activity pa.

Of course we also change a few in our diet. More fruits and veggies please! We really have to wise with our spending di ba? We have to spend our hard earned money wisely and in a more practical way. Lagi ko nga sinasabi sa mga bata, kesa ibili mo ng pagkain that may or will cause you more harm that good, just buy something natural and nutritious.

And that is how we are coping so far! Our buying attitude now lean towards providing the best, and the most nutritious for our family. We understand the importance of fruit in our diet and we buy these to keep our kids healthy. And because we are more conscious with what we buy, we highly rely on the nutritional facts and ingredients list that are indicated on the back label. Pero alam nyo ba some food manufacturers use misleading tricks to convince people to buy highly processed and unhealthy products. Ano daw? Kahit ako nagulat din ng nalaman ko. When it comes to our fruit juices, I also check the ingredients to make sure that it has the freshest ingredients, always check the back label!

I learned that lesson sometime ago. Like most of you, I really believe that aside from water, the next best drink is fruit juices. So for my school kids, I always buy fruit juices in tetra pack in boxes! I have this thinking that what I a giving them as baon for school was healthy. Mali pala when I started reading the label. I’m just actually giving them sugar in a tetrapack. So imagine my surprise eh may 5 box pa ng fruit juice sa pantry.

This is why I am sharing this to you, para hindi na kayo magkamali. Here’s my guiding principle when checking the ingredients of products that claim to be healthy and natural:

Check the first 5 ingredients. Usually the first 5 ingredients make up the largest part of the food component.
If an ingredients list is longer than two to three lines suggests that the product is highly processed. Pag mahaba, magduda ka na.
If an ingredient is hard to pronounce, it might not be good for you

5 Tried And Tested Home Remedies for Coughs and Colds

Colds are the worst kind for me because there is no specific medicine to treat it, specially when the stage is at the worst. Good thing about it, it is easier to manage during the mild stages. I am sharing with you our 3 Tried And Tested Home Remedies for Coughs and Colds.

Home remedy #1 At the first sign of colds or coughs, our pedia recommends using nebulizer to free the mucus. As you catch a cold, one of your body’s defense system is creating a mucus. You need to clear it up so that your breathing won’t be compromised. If you don’t have a nebulizer, you can also try irrigation. A video below showing you how to to do it. It is also best for babies who does not know how to sneeze.

Home remedy #2 Eat hot soups like sinigang, sopas, or mami. The steam from the hot soup helps in unclogging the stuffy nose. Also, the ingredients in the hot soup helps your body to recover well. I usually cook a concoction of tomato, onion, ginger, tilapia, and kamote tops as our cold soup.

Home remedy #3 Drink plenty of water and natural juices that are sour. We love taking fresh dalandan juice when we are feeling down due to colds. Tried and tested, a glass or 2 of that juice, makes us better. As much as possible, do add sugar on your juice and avoid eating sweet foods when you are suffering from colds and coughs.
