Jeunesse Anion for a Cleaner, Healthier Lifestyle
I say a big “Yes!” to all of these questions.
Now that I have to keep myself fit and healthy, I don’t let my monthly period stop me from doing my regular exercise, chores at home, work, and other activities. I won’t let anything get it my way of doing the things I love. Thanks to Jeunesse Anion!
Distributed by Wellgold International Inc., Jeunesse Anion aims to provide sanitary pads and liners that help eliminate bacteria and odor. It is the first brand to introduce anion sanitary napkins which relieve menstrual discomforts such as cramps and dysmenorrhea. You don’t have to worry about stains because of the quick absorbing top sheet. The breathable material made of virgin pulp cotton will give you no reason to feel crappy or uncomfortable. So you can do exercise, and be very active at home and at work. One of the best things about Jeunesse Anion is that it is guaranteed safe for pregnant women and new moms. The non-liniment material helps fight vaginal infections or irritations.
To celebrate and promote wellness, I was one of the lucky bloggers who were invited for a Zumba session at the Marriott Hotel led by no other than the gorgeous Ms. Regine Tolentino.
Jeunesse Anion organized this event in partnership with Simply Cereal, Doña Elena Olive Oils, Clara Ole, and Al Dente Pasta. It was indeed a day filled with fun, healthy food and fitness tips.
I love doing a little Zumba dancing here and there with my friends. I can burn excess fats without any hassle or any equipment needed. I must tell you though, when it's the Dance Diva Regine who is leading the pack, the energy level is absolutely and always up there. Everyone was pumped up as danced effortlessly and gracefully. We got the kind of sweat that we've all been looking for. Luckily enough, I get to insert some 15 to 30 minutes of light exercises and jogging the past few weeks despite my busy schedule. Somehow, I was prepared for this kind of workout. Zumba is a holistic approach of exercising to music that helps improve condition of the heart and lungs, better muscular strength and tone, and cuts the risk of osteoporosis and other bone diseases.
As we all know, Ms. Regine Tolentino is a mom, a wife, and a great influence to other moms in terms of keeping the body fit and healthy through dancing. Moreover, did you know that she is a licensed Zumba
and U-Jam® Fitness instructor, and certified by the AFAA (Athletic and Fitness Association of America)? Yes, she is really amazing that way! That makes more sense, right? Now I’m even more motivated to keep a healthy lifestyle.
And a healthy lifestyle won’t be complete without guilt-free meals. Jeunesse Anion made sure we didn’t only get to take home some fitness tips. Because the brand understands moms have the most difficult job, juggling a lot of different tasks, Chef Mom Len Santos-Ding showed us some easy-to-prepare good food. She teaches at Heny Culinary School, contributes recipes to Yummy magazine and believes that a delicious meal can be healthy and, at the same time, not boring. She also holds regular cooking workshops in the Feed 5000 Kitchen Studio at Ayala Alabang Village.
After seeing her do some magic out of the real and fresh ingredients, I’ll definitely check out the other recipes from her.

According to her, “Preparing healthy meals starts from grocery shopping. Choose food that is real and fresh but just as satisfying. It should give you energy throughout the day.”
Here are the recipes she shared with us:
