They say that a family is like the branches of a tree that grow in different directions. However, for the Lopez family, their root remains united through a household hobby–bicycling. In an interview with the Lopezes, Louie, Alou, Gel, Aira, and Kang shared what they feel about being the newest addition to the family of Santé, a premier natural and organic health and wellness product and services provider, and their secrets to achieving not just a fit body but a healthier lifestyle, especially amid the global health crisis. Speaking of #FamilyGoals and #FitnessGoals, the Lopez family has the best of both worlds. Heading the tribe of these health enthusiasts is their father, who is well-loved and known by many as “Papa Louie.” His daughters sharing his same energy include Aira Lopez, a duathlete, a YouTube vlogger with half a million subscribers, and the host of a CNN show called Cycling Unlimited, with her equally beautiful and fit siblings Alou Lopez, Angela Lopez, and Alyssa Lopez.

Amid the global health crisis, Filipinos have seen the courage and strength of frontline workers—our doctors, nurses, grocery cashiers, public transportation drivers, and many more. We also saw people stepping up for others, especially their families, friends, or those vulnerable, immunocompromised loved ones safe from COVID-19. And yes, no matter how small our actions are, it reflects the heroes in all of us.

More than three months after Super Typhoon Odette hit the country, recovery efforts are now underway for those directly affected, particularly in various areas, such as Mimaropa, Western Visayas, Central Visayas, Eastern Visayas, Northern Mindanao, and Caraga. According to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), about P28.676 billion worth of infrastructure and agriculture were lost, and 2,336,249 families were affected when the typhoon devastated the country. 

More than two years into the pandemic, remote working became the norm for most organizations to cater to the welfare of their employees and implemented travel restrictions, opening a new work setup for workers.  A recent global study revealed that nearly nine out of 10 employees now prefer a hybrid model of remote and on-site working. Despite the world starting to transition to the post-pandemic, ensuring one’s health remains integral, especially as the virus lingers. How can we maintain our overall health and wellness amid the changing work lifestyles?
